Leah's $75 Bedroom Makeover!

Just uploaded a ton of pictures to the computer and found the ones from when we decorated Leah's room. It used to be Kaelyn's room (which we never decorated after we moved into the house. Whoops.) The walls were a beige and I think I tried 6 different green samples before picking a color called soothing aloe. I find it somewhat funny I picked that color because Leah is always tense and not easily soothed :)

Some BEFORE pictures.



I bought this bird piggy bank at a Vintage shop in Olympia. I loved it and knew it had to be a part of Leah's room!
 



Kaelyn helping Aaron put the crib together!
 




Random frames from around the house and Goodwill that I painted.
 



The frames after a coat of paint. I used scrapbook paper and stickers to decorate the insides.
 

The crib, bedding, curtains and glider came from our niece Chloie's room. The picture was an old one we had from Ikea. The pom bundle isn't finished, just had to hang it to get it off the floor and haven't had the motivation (or time) to complete it.....story of my life!
 


The dresser was Aaron's grandpa's I believe. I wanted it painted white but Aaron had spent so much time refinishing it a few years ago we decided to keep it the way it was.

  So that's pretty much it! The $75 went towards paint, new trim and the flower pillow on the glider. (A few dollars were also used on scrapbook paper and stickers for the wall collage.) Still need a few things...rug, etc. I think it turned out just great for hardly any money!

Who knows if Leah even likes it. She hasn't spent any time in her room yet. Getting ready to have her sleep in the crib any day now! ;)
