Moms and students I hope this has been some fun inspiration for dorm rooms. I am a mother but my daughter is nowhere near the age for college but I know my turn will come soon. Seeming as though my daughter 10th year birthday has just past on April 23^rd and it hit me how fast time flies. I remember just holding her in my arms and now she's ten yrs old, (oh how fast they grow) the time flew by and it have me thinking how 8yrs from now I’ll be that parent taking my beautiful daughter to college and helping her decorate her dorm room space but in the meantime I’m not there yet but it doesn’t mean I can't help give you a road map to a stylish dorm room for your daughter. Finally I hope you have enjoyed this post on 10 beautiful girls Dorm rooms, Oh by the way (have you notice it was 11 rooms)sorry I told a little lie but 10 just sounds better. In addition I have two small tips for you before I let you go!

Tip1: If your dorm room has closet be sure to consider making the most of the space like using them as a workspace. Like this space below!

Cool right! The back wall is lined in wallpaper and a shelf for pencils and all things work related. Remember you can also use cork board and cover it with fabric and you'd have a cool back wall to pin stuff on right!

Tip2: If you have young siblings you want to make sure to always consider how they may feel when big sister or big brother go off to college. Getting them involve can help them cope like making pictures for their sisters dorm room. Big sister can make them feel good by hanging their art work as decorations check out this cute idea below

How cute; Best art wall ever, combination of framed and cut out pieces!  this can be art from baby brother or sister  right? This display was done By Paige of Simple Thoughts in House of Fifty Mag

Friday's Runway Decorate-Pajama's

Hello beautiful friends, T.G.I.F wow we made it through another whole work week and now its Friday and you know what time it is. It's time for Friday's Runways Decorate ("one of my favorite parts of the blog"). Hey have you notice celebrities wearing pajamas in public lately? Like Rihanna, Jessica Alba, and more. Since this is such a big thing in Hollywood (celebrities wearing PJ’s on the red carpet and all). I had to make way for it on Runway Decorate and keep my peeps in the loop too. I figure that will be my inspiration for this week’s Runway Decorate and I found some cool rooms that could be inspired by wearing your P.J’s. Check them out.

Check out fashionista Viviana Volpicella wearing Prada. She seems to be enjoying herself with the beautiful silk flower pattern pajamas street wear. Works well with the sun glasses lend a sense of authenticity and seriousness.……….. Check out this lovely room interior. I'd tell you, it looks just like the fashionista as if the living room stepped right out of bed and into its PJ’s. like our runway fashionista. (The walls are all wallpapered up) in almost the same beautiful silk flower pattern that Viviana Volpicella is wearing. I love this match.

Check out our fashionista Sofia Coppola, Looks like she loves the easy just-get-out-of bed look. Sofia is definitely rocking that navy silk pajama suit From Louis Vuitton 2012 cruise collection. You know a true fashionista when they look good and never trendy…………Now if our fasionista looks good you know our home interior room looks just as good check out how laid-back this beautiful room looks, this room is laid back but very upbeat in beauty. I think this room can handle the runway anytime. (Great match)

Model wearing pajamas is all matched up with the sofa! Cool!! 

Celebrities taking to the red-carpet in their PJ's Pop Star Rihanna and Actress Jessica Alba

More Celebrities taking to the streets and the red-carpet in their PJ's Christopher Walken and Cynthia Nixon the Sex and The City star

What do you think? 

Can you walk the streets in your pajamas?

Is this a trend you like or rather not see ?

Ribbons and Bows Dresser

Remember the sneak peak of some ribbon I showed you last week?

Well here's how I used it.

Sweet little bows.

Sweet little keyhole. 

And don't you love the lamps?! 

Thank you Hobby Lobby. :)

The bows are removable so it could look like this as well. 

Here's the before, minus one drawer. 

The dresser is painted in oil based Marigold by Sherwin Williams in high gloss.

The hardware is stained in Minwax Mission Oak (I LOVE this stain on the wood knobs from Home Depot. It gives the wood a beautiful tortoise shell finish.)

For more info look under the The Shop tab at the top of the page.

 PS I'm sharing the tutorial for the removable bows over at Embracing Change tomorrow so make sure to stop by and check it out! 

Home Visit: Bringin' It to Brooklyn

I’ve been waiting for these pictures to be uploaded and just finally got some time this morning to get them up and sort through them. We finished 98% of the work on this Brooklyn home earlier this year but have been working on some exterior wiring problems the last few weeks. Regardless, the interior work is completely finished and here’s a look at what we’ve been up to in BK.

Our major areas of focus were the kitchen, the dining room and the basement. The for the basement, we ripped up the floors and laid down new tiles, fixed up the walls and gave it a whole new paint job. There was also extensive cleaning and clearing of old debris before we were able to do all this work, but the result speaks for itself. We also installed a new washer/dryer and ran new lines for them, as well as new wiring and lighting fixtures. 

The kitchen was a complete overhaul. Those are brand new wood cabinets, granite countertops, and tiled floors as well. We helped the customer pick out new appliances, including the stainless steel stove. We did some fixing up on the walls, and then put in a nice tiled backsplash. We also put in some new wiring and lighting fixtures in here. The dishwasher and fridge are new as well, and both are Energy Star certified. Very happy with this.

The dining room has yet to be fully designed, but we put in new cupboard doors, laid down new tile flooring, and fixed-up and repainted the walls. That’s it for now but we’ll be posting some finished jobs next week, one of which is a follow-up from the “before” pictures I posted a few weeks ago.
