Dressing tables for little girls and a project sneak peek

I've been working on a bedroom for the young daughter of some long term clients and wanted to share a little bit of it with you. The image above is a grouping of the fabrics and inspiration ideas we're going to be incorporating.The centerpiece in the room with the Anthropologie Campaign bed, fully draped and festooned in royal fashion!


Since the bed ends are open and the little girl is only 4-1/2, I designed custom inserts for the ends, which will be removable when she no longer needs them. The inserts are going to be a teal blue and not pink as shown below.



Another highlight is to be a combination dressing table/desk. Here are a few that I was looking at:

And, finally, here is the desk that my clients have purchased from Ikea. Sweet, isn't it?


And, we're thinking of pairing with this Phillipe Starck Victoria Ghost chair in rose:



More to come as it comes together!

Wow Linda, that aqua pillow just sings to me. This "big" girl is going to check that out! The room plan looks delicious. No use for a rug? (My passion). So many super styles for kids these days. Thanks for visiting us at Atticmag!!

Wonderful choices! I especially love that they will grow with her and even serve as pieces for a guest room one day!
