Some of you will remember this post from last Fall when we gave Sara's room a makeover.
Well, today we are FINALLY painting the two remaining walls a light grey, which was the plan from the beginning. I told Sara that even if the end of the world comes today, we will get the walls painted first.
Hee-
hee. It may look like it's already painted grey to the right of her bed, but that is actually the leftover pale lavender from her
pre-teen days.
Sara fell in love with a Damask pattern on some plates that I have and asked if we could use it as the pattern to stencil her walls. So I photocopied the plate, cut out a stencil and we went to work.

The very first stencil to go up (below). Wish us luck today & here's hoping the end of the world doesn't happen first. : )

Such a fun girly room!
Great room! I love how girly it is!
I am in awe of your ability to put things together and make a beautiful end result. Gray is such a hot color right now and I have to say I love it with the pink/peach in your daughter's room. I'm so glad to hear that someone loves stencilling like I do. So pretty-such a lucky girl.
That is so gorgeous! What a great idea to make your own stencil!
That looks like every teen girl's dream room! I admire your patience. I'm not sure I would ever be able to finish that much stenciling.
What a great room! I am going to show my daughter when she gets home. Beauitful job!
My 10 y/o would like to move in. Right now.
Your stenciling job looks great! And to think you made it yourself. I'm impressed. Sounds like you'll be enjoying yourself today!

Wow this is beautiful--so grown-up and classy. I must admit, I love doing my girl's room--the boys, now that they are teens, get what they get, and had better not throw a fit Ü.
Good luck with the painting!
Her room is lovely - I'm enthralled with all the different light fixtures and lamps!
Her room is beautiful!!! You did a great job with all that stenciling.
I hope Sara is feeling better day by day.
Oh my goodness--you scared me! At first I thought you were going to say you were painting over all that stenciling! I was ready to yell "NOOOOOOOO!" LOL!
