Before and After

I have been wanting to redo my bedroom ever since we bought a new bed 2 years ago. Caleb told me I could get whatever I wanted, but I have never found anything I love enough to spend a lot of money on. Then I went to Pottery Barn Outlet with my sister and found this cute white duvet cover for $30. It seems like those kind of deals never come up for me, so I just went ahead and bought it. I was excited and a little nervous because it was white. When it finally hit me that I could do so many different things with this duvet, my wheels started turning. I went through color schemes over and over again in my head. Finally I came up with pink, black, and green for my colors.

This is the before pictures. Kind of sad I know. I have a queen sized quilt on my Cal. King bed. Looks pretty awesome huh? Now you know why I wanted to redo my bedroom so badly.



This is what it looks like now. I love it!!!





I made the pillow shams, and the decorative pillows to match. It was really fun picking out the fabric for them. My friend helped me with the patterns which was fun cuz then I got some girl talking time in while making them. I also sewed the ribbon on the bottom of the bedskirt. There was no bedskirts out there with fuchsia pink out there, so I bought a cheap one with sage green on it. Then I sewed the pink ribbon on it later to make it match. I think it turned out super cute.
