Girl's Rooms

Since my home office is finally coming to a finish, I have mentally moved onto another project - my daughters room.  Now let me tell you designing for an 8 year old is proving to be a challenge - especially when she is the artsy, fancy free, drama queen kind.  After sorting through the entire rainbow of colors - she decided on Coral.  It "HAS" to be coral Mom - not pink, not orange but coral.  So my quest over the past few weeks has been to hunt down coral fabric.  After many "no's", "nope" and "uh-uhs" I showed her this:


Schumacher-Trina Turk Trellis



I dare not tell her the color-way of this fabric is called Watermelon, because in her mind, it's the perfect coral.  So now we have our inspiration fabric and I plan on using this on an upholstered headboard.  We will also be adding turquoise and maybe a touch of yellow.

I thought I would share some more inspiration photos of little girl's rooms I have found.
