Greta is popping 15 in just some days, and it seems like the right time for the reveal of her teen room makeover!

Store Greta’s Room

Once we moved into this home, we changed the flooring and painted her room, however did not actually do a lot aside from that. She’s rising up, and he or she wished to have a bed room that felt extra teen-friendly. When she gave me permission to take over the design—I used to be honored! It is actually not a on condition that your 14-year-old daughter will likely be completely satisfied about one thing like that. However she is, and it is so gratifying for somebody who likes to design our house!

It is taken most of a yr to get all of it put collectively, however now, her room has turn out to be considered one of everybody’s favourite rooms in the home! It has superb mild; it’s so moody at evening. It’s the most important, sweetest, moody vibe!

All In regards to the Wallpaper, Trim, & Ceiling

We first painted the room a light-weight pink shade that she appreciated after we moved in. Nevertheless it did not fairly go well with her tastes as she received older. Greta’s bed room is massive, so we have been capable of put a extremely wealthy shade on the partitions with this crimson wallpaper, and it did not really feel too intense. I selected a distinction trim (Sherwin Williams Riverway) in a very totally different paint shade from the wallpaper sample—it makes the room actually pop!

Her ceiling was initially painted the colour of the trim, and I then painted it again to white, as a result of I actually wished to have a tone-on-tone second with the white plaster ceiling fixture.

I really like love this chandelier—it is so dreamy!! (We rounded up extra pretty white chandeliers here.)

Swapping Out Bed room Furnishings

This room by accident grew to become a extremely massive showcase of lots of our Pottery Barn collection! The bed—oh my goodness, it is unimaginable—options a good looking, timeless navy stripe on the upholstered mattress body. Hers is a queen measurement nevertheless it additionally is available in king measurement.

She beforehand had an outdated desk from Fb Market in her room that was a type of misleading pictures: After I picked it up, I spotted it was vanity-sized, so it was fairly small. We received her a new desk from our line with Pottery Barn. This one nonetheless serves as a conceit however is extra desk-sized and is flanked by bookcases from our assortment so it actually fills out the wall. She does her homework and artwork on the vainness—it is one thing she actually makes use of quite a bit!

Though the furnishings alongside this wall is black, they do not really feel like heavy items due to the open framing. Greta has lots of books that I’m placing on there, nevertheless it’s additionally nice for artwork, decor, and storage with some closed felt bins. If I have been going so as to add the rest, you recognize I might at all times get behind some hard-wired sconces on both facet of the mirror right here.

Including New (and Outdated) Wall Artwork

It was superb—as soon as we added the artwork to her room, it simply felt like, “Oh, this room is completed.” Which simply goes to point out the influence of artwork! The primary piece we added was the horse above her bed. That image is one thing that we did a DIY frame for a number of years in the past. It was very easy: We had the picture printed on a canvas, after which made the body. It has been hers ever since!

Above her dresser, we put these four big moth paintings from Anthropologie. They’re bigger than they give the impression of being in pictures. And it’s so impactful in her room. Simply cool sufficient and bizarre sufficient for her to like them.

I feel everybody remembers their childhood bed room, after which their teen bed room…and I am so honored and excited for this bed room to be part of Greta’s recollections for all times.
