Creating FABULOUS Children's Rooms (Part 3): A Tale of Two Sisters

When designing a child’s room, I always advise that my South Carolina interior design clients spend the majority of their budget on items that can withstand the test of time. For instance, when choosing window treatment fabrics, make pattern selections that are not too juvenile. The goal is to be able to reuse the same [...]

Creating FABULOUS Children's Rooms (Part 2): A Tale of Fancy Nancy

When designing a space for a child, it is so critical to consider their perspective and “likes”. However, this can often be quite a daunting task, considering that more often than not, the parents have a TOTALLY different idea in mind for their child’s room. (If I ever thought pleasing a husband and wife was [...]

  • Oh Kimberly, I don’t even know where to start ! They need to change her middle name to “Lucky”. The hand painted fabric is FABULOUS, the bedding, the bedside table is so unique. I want that leopard carpet in my playroom, well my workroom ! You are so talented, I’m sure she loves it.

      Tammy, you are soooo wonderful! Thank you for the complients! I am in love with this room, too, and I agree with you that this precious little girl could be renamed “Lucky”. HA! (You are too funny!) Her room is one of my favorite children’s spaces that I have designed. It was sooooo much fun! I loved being able to have free reign to truly customize every detail to her taste. She was a fabulous little client!

    Kim,

    I love the painted secretary! Are there businesses that specialize in repainting furniture? Is it rolled/spray painted? Just wondering in case I happen upon such a wonderful piece.
    p.s. love your beautiful room designs & your down to earth blog-thanks so much!

      Most designers have a painter that they rely on. In cases like these, I just have “my painter” paint an item. He typically sprays a furniture piece after priming it. Occasionally, my “faux finisher” will add touches, as well. This piece was primed and sprayed with a professional paint sprayer. I am so glad you love it. I do, too. This technique breathes life into things that are old. Good luck with your project!

    What color paint is on the ceiling in the mideival boys bedroom the knights and soldiers theme? It looks like the walls are a light grey? and the ceiling a shade of blue? This room is very nicely decorated.

    Thank you
