Girl’s Bedroom Big Reveal
Today’s the day! It feels like we are finally making forward progress in this house…
Wait. What? You haven’t heard? Yep, I’ve been working diligently-ish on a room here in our new home and I’m stoked…
Feeling left out? No worries! I can get you spun up lickity-split

Color Splash Decor Blog Hop
I figured what better way to debut said room than with ten other extremely talented bloggers who don’t shy away from color…and lots of it. That’s right my friends…It’s been a wonderful summer, but now that the kids are back to school we can all start checking off our LOOONNGGG lists of projects, big and small. These last couple of weeks have afforded me hours to myself in the middle of the day to wrap up this fun room.
So after you’ve checked out my bedroom reveal then bop on over to see the bright and bold idea that Clayton Makes has to offer, or get tips from any of these other AB-FAB and color-loving ladies.
About the Room
1. It’s for that smart, funny, and beautiful young lady right there. She may only be in middle school, but she just started her 6th school (or 7th if you count British Primary School). Yep, if anyone deserves a room makeover, it might just be her!
2. We just moved…again…and it’s time to start knocking off these rooms one at at time. Begining in a child’s room has given me a little more time to mull over what I want to do with the entertaining areas of the home. Want to see what we are starting with?

Inspo and Before
Now, I obviously couldn’t copy this bedroom exactly, but I told my daughter that we could do:
*Stripes
*Emerald headboard
*Fun preppy patterns
And Here’s What we Came up With:

THE SHEETS
THE DUVET
Confession time- My daughter has been lacking a cover for her duvet for about 8 months now mostly because I couldn’t find any that captured my heart. Everything just seemed so…well…boring. I am stoked that she now has this Bitsy Dots Pattern Duvet designed by Crystal Walen. Crystal is another one of my favorite surface designers on Spoonflower and Roostery. She alone has 17 pages of duvet cover options…Seriously folks…go check this stuff out! Endless possibilities!
I was happy to see that the duvet is 100% cotton sateen and feels rather wrinkle resistent…because…um.. I’m not an “iron your bedding” type of gal. The design is two-sided (front and back of the duvet) and has a hidden zipper and comforter ties. What’s not to love?
THE STRIPES
I saved what is perhaps the biggest SURPRISE for last! Can we take a moment to enjoy these crazy-cool Tempaper removable wallpaper stripes?
Sure, you’ve seen stripes on walls before, but have you ever seen them spaced out quite like this? I wanted the walls to be light and airy so that it fit with the silk curtains. Surprisingly, my inspiration for this striped pattern was a dress worn by the lady in front of me at church. Just telling it like it is folks.
Here’s the Trick Though

Girl, your creative abilities just blow me away! Every detail and layer upon layer in this room is perfection… you’ve created such a fabulous room for your daughter! (And I love those sheets… never thought about mixing two different patterns there!)
Ohhh! Thank you so much! This means a lot coming from my inspiration for this space! I can’t wait to tell my daughter!
Cuteness overload!! and I looove the mini wall stripes!! Such a smart idea…please adopt me 😛
LOL. You are welcome to come be one of my children if you scrub toilets and vacuum. ?
I think this needs to go down in the girls room makeover history books! What a blessed and fortunate young lady to have a room this gorgeous to come home to every day.. if she ever gets on punishment don’t send her to this room lol because the punishment would be to stay out the room
Oh my Miss Jamala. That is about the sweetest compliment. My daughter is right here and she laughed out loud at this wit :). She promises not to get into trouble. LOL
Jewel, I told you you work magic. LOL! There is so much about this space that I love! I love the desk area and the accessories you chose to display. It all looks playful but it says, I am teen as well. I love that black side table and all of the art. I really like your curtain rods….If you DIY’d that you need to share a tutorial. Don’t be shock if I copy you. Haha! I also love the bedding. It is so spot on…get it!? The chandy and the painted ceiling definitely adds to the space in a way that they wouldn’t if they weren’t there. Great job ma and your photos look FAB!
Ok. That fabric (all of it) is AMAZING. Like so so so pretty and fun! Amazed you did that yourself. Also LOVE the mirror in there. Gorgeous space, Jewel!
Your daughter’s bedroom is stunning! From the light fixture down to the beautiful rug, it’s all perfection. I love it!
BRB! I’m coming to steal her entire room! Those curtains! The bedding! the headboard! the lighting! AHHH You take the cake for concept, execution, and of course styling. Pinned literally everything. Congrats on such a great makeover.
Thank you so much Ariel! It feels great to be done and most importantly my daughter is thrilled!
Thank you so much Cindy!!!
Thanks Charlotte! Spoonflower for the win, am I right? That mirror is there for now, but I have a feeling when I go to redo my family room next Spring it may find a new home downstairs. She better enjoy it while it lasts!
Thanks Jess! I’m so glad you like it! The curtain rods were on sale at Target for my first ORC room. I spray painted them gold (they came in black and silver and I had a mix).
Jewel I want to hire you to make a headboard for me!! I love everything about this! Love your mixing patterns especially!
LOL! Thanks Clayton! If you can sew curtains, you could totally do this!
WOW! This is completely amazing head to toe. I just LOVE the transformation. Your daughter must be so happy. And the headboard and chandy are AMAZING. Way to go Mama. You created a masterpiece for your lovely little lady!!
Thank you so much Heather
She really is happy!
This is amazing! Did you sew the matching bedskirt?
I did!
