Beth's room

Well I finally was able to tackle Beth's room!
It is not finished yet BUT the big part, the painting, is done!  Now comes the fun decorating part!
Since we had 5gals of Valspar - Filtered Shade (the color we used in the livingroom) I figured I would use that as the base color for Beth's room. I was planning boy or girl to do gray with an accent wall with stripes of navy or pink. 
I did 2 coats in the whole room, once that was dry it was time to measure out all the stripes. I decided to do 4 stripes in each color.. Each one measures 12inches.
After all that work it was finally time to get some color on the wall. I picked California paints - love letters. It is bright pink but not super bright.
I didn't want Beth's room to be super babyish or super girly because I really don't want to be redoing her room in 5 years! I wanted something she can grow with!


I am currently on the hunt for a navy blue rug, and I need to make a navy blue roman shade, again I want colors that Beth can grow with! 

We have nothing but her mirror, which I also painted (was mine and Chris in our old house) on her walls. To be honest we haven't had much time to do anything else to her room yet. I am waiting for some cute things from etsy to arrive :)
Hopefully will be done soon!
