Payton's New Room

Before we moved Logan onto a bed him and Payton shared a room. We felt like it was time for Payton to have her own space especially since there is a large sign on the boys door that states there are no girls allowed in their room. We had talked about Payton's room for months and looked at furniture and were having trouble finding something we agreed on. Then Kelly came over one day and showed me this web site that had all this furniture that you could build yourself you just had to print off the plans. So we found a bed we agreed on and some bookshelves. Chris and I spent the next few days painting the room and putting up bead board. Then Chris built the bed and the bookshelves which both turned out so good. I was very impressed at how well everything turned out since this was the first time Chris had ever done something like this. We did have help from some neighbors which helped the project move along a little faster.





Kelly and I even made the curtains. Kelly did most the work I just pinned and she did all the sewing and we did it with 8 kids running around the house talk about a crazy day.

The nightstand I got at DI for $10 and then we painted it and put new hardware on it added a basket and we had a nightstand.



The bedding I had to give on Payton loves Tangled and has wanted this bedding forever so I gave in and she loves it. It was not that hard for her to talk me into this since it got her out of our bed finally.

The whole room turned out so cute. It was so much fun to do. Chris and I actually really enjoyed doing this project together. We did not do it alone though so thanks to Kelly and our neighbors who all helped us out so much!
