As if the girl's room didn't have enough pink, I went and added some more. At first when I saw these $30 night tables on Craigslist, I was thinking white.

The drawer pulls on top were broken, so I threaded fabric through for temporary handles. One day I'd like to purchase these darling knobs from Anthropologie.

They are a little spendy though, especially considering they cost almost as much as the tables themselves. But they'll definitely add the finishing touch.

We swapped out their table lamps with two swing-arm sconces we had in storage. I'm liking the practicality of them. We also added an old jute throw rug to provide a bit more texture to the room, and my old chippy white bench from childhood now sits at the foot of Middle Bear's bed.
Here is the before:
And after:
Not too drastic of a difference. Just a little more pink.
On the topic of children's rooms, you all need to go see what Erica Cook from Moth Design cooked up. It's a design blog dedicated to children's spaces. What an excellent idea huh? It's called "Little Moth"...big style for little people. SO sweet.





I love it!! Those tables are adorable! And, I love the extra pink. Those pulls are great from Anthro, but, I really think I may like the ones that you came up with better!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Rie! I've been hoping to check out Martha's new paint, I love that colour. The bench at the end of the bed is so sweet too. Hope you are doing well

ReplyDeleteThat pink is gorgeous. You have the best taste!

ReplyDeleteI have seen Martha's Ballet Slipper on a few pieces and I have been hoping I can use it someday. It looks adorable on your nightstands. The girl's room is just precious. Love your old bench at the bottom of the middle bed. SO cute!!

That soft pink is really my favorite of all the pink hues. Reminds me of the inside of a sea shell, which is so soothing, especially in a little girl's room. I can picture being in bed in that room listening to a rain storm and feeling VERY cozy. I like the change of lighting, as well. My daughter has a wall swing-arm and it just makes way for more of her little bits and pieces on the night stand. Wonderfully done! xx P&H
ReplyDeleteI love the pink night stands. Gorgeous. You have such a great eye. Love your home, love your blog. Lots of love going on, here. :)
ReplyDeleteThose turned out so sweet! Loving that pink!
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute little girl's room!

ReplyDeleteHi Rie just love the bedsides such a gorgeous shade of pink. Sandy x
ReplyDeleteAs always Rie, tasteful and gorgeous. Ballet Pink is the perfect color.
ReplyDeleteBallet slipper...what a beautiful name and color. Oh, Martha! Love it.
ReplyDeleteLuv the sweet pink! Adds just the right amount of color.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, when I thought the room couldn't be any more adorable! Perfection!
ReplyDeleteTake care
Kristin
They are fabulous Rie and I actually like the fabric pulls!

Hi Rie,
ReplyDeleteI love those cute little tables! I am IN LOVE with that color too. I painted a shabbby bench w/ it that is in our bedroom. I've been on the hunt to find more to paint pink! ha ha:)
Your girl's room is just too adorable. You've done such a fabulous job on it.
xo,
Shellagh
love their room....can't get any cuter!
ReplyDeleteThe Girls room is Beautiful ~ I have My Sweet Niece checking out your blog all the time, She Loves it (she is Preggos with Her 6th) Keep Sharing - btw, I love the fabric laced in as a handle, I think vintage fabric with tiny rose buds would be Perfect....
ReplyDeleteHave a Blessed & Wonderful Week

I love them! If i was a little girl i would be so happy when it was bedtime if i had a room like that.
ReplyDeletelove, love, love the pink!
ReplyDeleteBe still my heart! I love that room from top to bottom. That wall color is wonderful too. Have you shared it before? Would you share it now?
ReplyDeleteWhat a precious room for your little girls. The pink is perfect!
ReplyDeleteRie: Those handles are on sale at Anthropologie, at least the aqua green glass version for $7.95 each. Don't know if you're interested but thought I'd pass it along since you like them. Don't know if that color would work for you or not, but great price.
ReplyDeleteI recently found your blog and can't tell you how much I love it! Can you tell me the name of the paint color on your girl's walls? Thanks~
ReplyDeleteHola Rie, how I love seeing this bedroom for a bunch of children, it reminds me my own home when little. Congratulations for your wonderful family and home!!
ReplyDeleteGreetings from Chile,
Maria Cecilia
Your girl's room is just so adorable, i love the touch of pink,so lovely and sweet. Good Job. :)
ReplyDeleteJust found your blog via Ticking and Toile and had a chance to read through several of your posts. I'd love for you to share this great little makeover on Modern Craftswoman Monday! Hope you can join the fun! Rory
ReplyDeleteThis bedroom is perfect! It makes me want to have 2 or 3 or 4 little girls to decorate for! Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI've seen ribbon threaded through the holes left from a previous handle, and it looked really cute. Worth a try? You could use matching colours or contrasting, depending on the look you're going for.
ReplyDeleteSharon
That is the most precious little girls room! I love the furniture you painted!
ReplyDeleteThose same Anthro pulls are on sale on their website right now for just $8! Funny because I was looking at them last week and then happened to stumble across your blog today and saw this post from almost a year ago.
ReplyDeleteRie, what color do you have on the walls? It's just what I've been looking for.
ReplyDeleteIt's called "China Moon", a Valspar color from Lowes. I like it too... it's my favorite neutral!
