After moving my daughter into her current bedroom during the Great Switch, we painted the room the same lavender-gray, African Violet by Benjamin Moore, she had in her previous space. Her previous room was north facing with not a lot of natural light so the colour was quite muted. In her current room, we find the lavender really comes out with all the light that filters in. The walls especially read "purple" since we hung up the Roman blind. She really likes the vintagey look we are going for with her turquoise end table and diamond tufted headboard. The fabric we chose isnt working with the current wall colour so we will be re-painting again.

ReplyDeleteThe fabrics are so pretty especially the black and white ikat one. And the striped walls are so much fun. Looking forward to see the finished room.

Great fabric choices. Can't wait to see the room repainted.
ReplyDeleteUgh - I've done the painting-and-then-repainting thing more times than I care to remember! But sometimes you just don't know until the colour is up on the walls.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure the room will look spectacular when you're done - you've already got some great fabrics and pieces in the room, and the striped wall is really going to give it the wow factor :-)
Happy painting {again}! :-)
Painting is so satisfying, especially when you're doing something punchy like stripes!! Can't wait for the reveal!
ReplyDeleteHave fun! You are a great Mum - x
ReplyDeleteStripes are always a fabulous, classic choice. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished room!
ReplyDeleteYour your combination of fabrics. With the stripes, will be fantastic!
ReplyDeleteThe fabrics are so pretty and will look great with the stripes. Happy painting! :)
ReplyDeleteow - can't wait to see how this turns out - the teasers are exciting!
ReplyDeleteI think it will be gorgeous - huge solo undertaking though! Good luck with the repainting (it's a tough pill to swallow, but usually ends up so right :) ).
ReplyDeleteHappy painting...hope it's going well!
ReplyDeleteThank goodness paint is such a quick fix - well at least I hope it's quick for you! Happy painting. Can't wait to see the stripes.
ReplyDeleteI love how this room is coming together. We really do have the same taste. I have the b&w ikat fabric for pillows in my living room. Love those blinds!!!
ReplyDeleteOh, I like the look of this!! Janell
