Playroom

I am so incredibly happy with the way this room turned out! And glad that it's finished enough to PLAY! The trim around the door needs to be finished and I have a couple more things that I want to do. It's funny because I would have never picked out the colors in the room on my own. It all started from the rugs that I found at Target.

The walls are painted a really light grey and it turned out to be the perfect color. This is a basement room with no windows so I wanted a shade that would add some warmth but not darken the room anymore. I love it!


Rugs, pillows, zebra throw: Target
Frames, letters: Hobby Lobby - repainted
Curtains: Wayfair
Rocket: Land of Nod

My weekend project

Several months ago I decided to paint my kitchen table. The top finish was chipping off and the color really wasn't my style. It's an old wood table (with lots of charm) that was actually inherited from my husband's grandpa.

You can see the color in the picture below. The color on the left was what we started with. Sorry for the low quality pictures, they were taken from my cell phone.


A couple weeks ago a friend of mine was selling a set of reupholstered vintage chairs for a steal of a deal. They are a dark & light gray tweed with a beautiful cream floral pattern. I love them! I decided on dark grey for the table as I wanted it to help pull some of the dark color from the chairs and then I'll be able to pair it with a light colored centerpiece.


Here is the finished product! I'll share a better picture after I've styled it. The wall behind the table has nothing on it, besides crayon marks from a very creative two year old. That's my next project and I'm excited!
