We finally started working on the first room in our new home. I still am very undecided on the main rooms in the house, but my oldest daughter knew exactly what she wanted to do.

For her birthday she picked out a new comforter set. Her cream colored walls were soon covered in pink and white.

Her room does not have any light fixtures so she has to rely on lamps to see at night. We found this cool lamp at Target. You can’t see the colors, but they are pink and white. She already had the chair and it matches perfectly.

She had the desk, but it will soon be going in for a makeover and we need to spiff up this alcove with some fun accessories.

We picked up this dresser at an auction sale. She thinks she wants to keep it the wood colors, but we will have to see what we can do to make it fit into the room.

She needed this tall white bookshelf to keep her collection of snow globes out of the reach of her 4 year old sister and it looks nice against the bright pink wall. We just need to do a little arranging and accessorizing here, too.

We don’t have anything up on the walls, but we have a lot of other colors we could incorporate with the dots on her bedding. I am making a trip to IKEA tomorrow, I have my eyes on a few accessories to tie the room together. She is an artist so I am going to hand her some blank canvases and see what she can create for her walls.

One room painted, so many more to go. I think we have a great start.
