Martha Stewart's tissue paper flowers hang over our girl's beds like little colorful clouds. I made them from a kit I found at Michaels.
When I first saw Maria from Dreamy Whites post about her girl's room, I saw that she had the same pom-poms in her girl's room. I love how she propped them like pillows on her girl's beds here:

I wanted a pop of color at the end of the white comforters on their beds, and these quilts fit the bill. To save money, I cut two quilts in half and hemmed the cut ends. Now all four of our girls get the burst of color for half the price! (Charlotte's toddler bed is across from their beds against a wall)
The quilts remind me of April Cornell. The pattern is the perfect mix of feminine and quirky. I found them at Target a few years ago, but sadly they no longer carry them.
There is some more color and quirk at the top end of their beds as well. I'll be posting about those babies tomorrow.
How sweeet, I love their room. It would be so much fun to have a little girl. I have three boys. I don't think they would like pom-poms!
ReplyDeleteThe pom poms look like a fluffy pink cloud. The room is gorgeous. All the best, Lori
ReplyDeleteOh this room is just lovely. So restful. Makes me wish I had more girls for Lily to share with!
ReplyDeleteLove this room! The pom poms are awesome.
ReplyDeleteI love this room! SO sweet! What lucky little girls to have such a dreamy room.
ReplyDeleteI have used the Martha Pom Pom kit in so many ways...one of my favorite things from her. EVER!!
Thanks for sharing!
i love your girls' room :) i love love that you cut the quilts in half ....genius. you're a continuous inspiration...thanks for sharing!! :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty room! How fun to have pink clouds in your room. I love having boys but I always dream about how I would have decorated a little girl's room!
ReplyDeleteI wonder how they all do sharing a room ~
Mine did great until they were about 12 then I couldn't seperate them fast enough! :)

I have those very same pink Martha Stewart Pom Poms hanging over the crib in my daughters' room!! I LOVE those things! Love the pop of color your quilts added to the foot of the beds too...and how smart of you to chop em' in half!! I probably would have been to scared to cut them! You brave girl! Happy Wednesday to you.

Love the pompoms:) Did you tack them onto the ceiling? Love the quilt to. Great ideas to cut them in half.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful bedroom! I love how the girls are all together! I love how the middle bed is different from the two on the outside. The wood detail on the walls are gorgeous. I want that bedroom!
ReplyDeleteOMgoodness. I saw them in Maria's post...and I vowed to get them for Lydia's room. But life happened and I forgot. Today. I'm going to get them.
ReplyDeleteI love your girls room!!! love it. I adore those quilts...and I'm so beyond impressed that you took a quilt and cut it in half. you are SO my friend. :)
Beautiful! So fun to see other girls sharing a room. My three daughters share...and they have so much fun together. Those pom poms are just the thing they need to make a switch from the jumbo 3-D snowflakes we put up at Christmastime.
ReplyDeleteThis room is beautiful! I know that they just love it. The pom poms are so pretty and the idea about cutting the quilt was a great one. Just the perfect pop of color to bring it all together.

Hi! I found you through Erin at "Rare and Beautiful Treasures." Loving your blog, love your style and am enjoying learning a little about your family.
ReplyDeleteHi!
ReplyDeleteI love your new post this morning. I am in the process of looking for a bed for my sweet baby girl Sofia who is turning 3 in a few weeks. I love the idea of the floral pom poms in the girls bedroom. I put those up in the family room last year all over the ceiling for my daughter's 2nd birthday party. It looked so pretty.
Thank you for sharing!!!
Oh seeing this photo makes me craaaave a whole gaggle of daughters, such a divine room! Love the pops of color, those flower poms are simply perfect.
ReplyDeleteLove it!
sweet as a button. love the pompoms.

oh i *love* those pom poms...sigh...i wasn't too much of a pink girl until my little pink girl was born...she now has a room filled with faded pink, grey and white goodness...what a wonderful idea for the quilts!! amazing!!
ReplyDeleteI had seen the picture of your girls room somewhere and didn't know it was yours. I love it! You did an amazing job. I have no little girls but I did just redo my boys room. Maybe someday I'll have that girl to put some pink in my life!
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious room Rie- love those pom poms and their beds are so pretty and sweet!!
ReplyDeleteOh, how I love pink! Love what you've done with the room. Can't wait to see more!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and soft! I need to head to Michaels ASAP!
ReplyDeleteSuch a pretty room! The pom poms look delightful hanging from the ceiling. I too have added pops of pink in my daughters room. Will be showing pics soon I hope as I haven't quite completed it yet. I also noticed the horse figurines on the windowsill! Had to smile as my Lisa was all into horses/ponies when she was little too... take care, Maryann
ReplyDeleteRie, your daughters' room is simply beautiful!! I love the pom poms and after seeing Maria's post and then her post on your girl's room, I was inspired to make some in blue for our Isabella's room. I absolutely love the quilts on your girls' beds too - so clever of you to think to cut them in half!! But by far I think the best part about your girls' room is that all 4 of them can share that wonderful space, I can only imagine the gorgeous chatter and giggles that must occur:) Thank you so much for sharing more of your beautiful home Rie. Wishing you a lovely day ~ Tina x
ReplyDeletei saw you on life in the fun lane's sidebar - and those pink poms totally caught my eye! so cute - and that quilt idea is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYour girls' room is so sweet! I love the dear little beds all in a row. I made the same tissue balls and didn't have a clue as to what to do with them but now I know!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful room for your girls so pretty!! Love the hanging pom-poms and the quilts add such a nice hit of colour at the end of their beds. Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteI just love everything about your daughters room... the quilts on the end of the beds are just a great touch of color... and the pom poms have me giddy!!!

Rie,
ReplyDeleteYour girls are so lucky to have a mom like you. You made such a beautiful space for them!
Those pink pom poms are like big peonies...so pretty.
ReplyDeletevery sweet and precious! i have 2 boys and have had the hardest time with decorating a room for a boy.
ReplyDeleteRie,
ReplyDeleteI just love your girls room. LOVE the pompoms & one of my favorite things are the animals in the window. Just such a sweet room. You are the best!
Take Care,
Maria
The pom poms are so pretty, but with a house full of men I will never be able to oull of those! Your little girls room is so pretty and the quilt idea is great.
