I can't wait until I can decorate Laine's little room. I am a big Pottery Barn Kids fan, just not a fan of their prices. I think when I do get to do her room I will be stealing a lot of their ideas. And a few other ideas I have picked up along the way...

Aren't these little piggy banks cute? Hobby Lobby sells ceramic ones that you paint for a fraction of the price the Pottery Barn sells them for.
One day when we have our own house I am putting some of this white chair rail up. I love the height of it. I was never a big fan of white but I love this look. I especially love the shelf along the top if it.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB1aZwz-zUVheS4I2bacgxiykuxa8EuGu-kjXV7f_LanC3bYdIZMn0-QnPAaxtpBaB7sbTfXAki9zHKtNizsjR3P1Yg3ZKKpsKu_GV4HU93NxbvJ0NA0l8REh-TZ3mizSeBRA6OehKi-oG/s400/img6t.jpg)
These little push boards would be easy too. Just cover up some square cork board with cute fabric and there you have a whole wall just ready to fill up with little kids art work.

I am not going to pretend that I am some kind of artist but these would be so easy to do. I am dying to try to paint one of these. I think I will start with the little flowers. You could even do them on wood rather than canvas because canvas can get pricey. I really, really want to try the top one with all the houses. I love all the little details. Plus I like the white dresser underneath it with the pink polka dot handles.
Oh all the pillows. I am head over heals for all the owls and bird silhouette. Darn if only I had the money to do all these things.![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzKH3Tgv8lKfwdzyc6OfL6S2tP8A5dcNqWGK9UgXOujNOBAOR1g-1KDWJ9xVZYROZ-vwmKqp_qEqtji21vQwBeepWNYf0w3QxXNaG-Orue_H4dmcdzowFAxPHqhPivDnvqn-zT957uwP5y/s400/img90t.jpg)

More wall decor. These would be fun to. Just some scrapbook paper, square canvases and some mod-podge. Oh and a bit of creativity would go a long way to.

Definitely a green room for Laine.
More ideas on my list of wishes...
A weekly menu planner. I can't decide which one I like better.

I think I am years and years away from getting any type of bedroom set for Jer and my room. So I think until then it is going to be pretty eclectic. I love the idea of and old door for a headboard and a bunch of different types of patterns for the bed linens.

Clip board wall organization.

And last but not least a chalk board door. You can buy them already built in or buy chalk paint. Martha Stewart has a line of chalk paint that can be tinted different colors if you aren't fond of black.

Well that is all. I don't know where all of these pictures came from. When I come across something I like I copy it in a folder on my desktop. I am not pretending these are any of my own ideas.
Wow, you are much more creative than I am. Want to decorate my apartment?
ReplyDeleteCUTE!! I want to do chair rail in our nursery too. AND, I've ALWAYS wanted a chalkboard door!! I think they are so fun!
