Shabby chic bedroom

I haven't posted many gluten free reviews lately, that's because I've been busy remodeling our attic bedroom. When we moved into our home 4 years ago my granddaughters pleaded with me to remodel the upstairs room so they could sleep there.

Four years later I have finally decided to take the plunge and work on this project. Having to do the entire thing by myself, I wasn't up to ripping out the old dark paneling. So I purchased paintable, textured wallpaper and started covering the walls and ceiling.

I have to say it looks pretty darn good! I picked a pretty mint green paint for the walls and white for the ceiling and trim. I accented these colors with a nice shade of pink.

My Shabby chic theme would not be complete without a chandelier, but I had very limited ceiling height and knew it would hang too low. I found one small enough to hang over the bed so no one would bump their head on it....

Added a garage sale electric fireplace, painted it white with a touch of pink trim and some Christmas decor makes the room so cozy!

My grandparents antique vanity was perfect for a girls room.  A fresh coat of white paint, new drawer knobs and I re-covered the vanity stool with lovely floral fabric from Joanns. The attached mirror was too tall for the attic so we had to remove it.

The room would not be complete without a metal bed. After months of searching I found this gorgeous bed frame on Amazon. A great price and very sturdy, it is absolutely breathtaking.

I have to admit my granddaughters haven't spent a night upstairs yet.... I guess that's because they can't keep me out of the room long enough!!
