Iron Bed Makeover

As you may recall, I purchased this bed for my daughter's room from a nice man on Craigslist after searching for months for an iron bed.

After going back and forth, my daughter and I agreed to paint it white.  She agreed, I painted! ; )

Her monogrammed pillow is recent gift from a sweet blogging friend, Beverly!  Thank you again Beverly- She loves it!

Here's a few more pictures from around her room.  I purchased this set of pictures from Etsy.

My daughter's room is not very big, but it was important to us to include a small desk and chair so she has a quiet place to do her homework.  She's a good student!  I'm extremely proud of her!  

The tree wall decal was ordered from here.

As always my friends thanks so much for stopping by!

Your daughter's room is gorgeous!!

Mimi said...

Oh what a beautiful room for your daughter. I love the colors and that bed is wonderful! I have the old iron crib that was my father's and had almost forgotten about it (It is stored in the attic) After seeing how great your daughter's bed looks I just have to get it back out! It wouldn't be safe by crib standards today but, one side slides down to make it into a daybed. Thank you - so glad i saw your post at Nifty Thrifty Tuesday!

Olá Brandi... há muito não nos falamos... que trabalho fantástico, minha Amiga... ficou tão feminino e tão agradável aos olhos, parece-me bastante confortável, que menina de sorte, ela tem uma mãe muito talentosa e com muito bom gosto para decoração. Amo ver suas transformações... parabéns mais uma vez, beijinhos do Brasil.

Hi Brandi~

I love how you painted your daughter's new bed! It is so beautiful, and the whole room is just perfect! I love the color on the walls and all the cute decorations, too! :) Those sweet old iron beds can be so hard to find, too. I have been trying to find matching ones, and so far haven't had any luck! But I'm patient! ;)

I hope you're doing well, and have a good night!

Blessings,
Jenni
