PB Teen Room Reveal!!!

 
Wow, I can't believe Reveal Day is here!  I hope you like it as much as SF Chick and I do.  The above picture is our "after".   

(Edited to add this "before" shot.)
What we did...

Painted the room (this is the exact Benjamin Moore color as PB, Shaker Gray)...

 
Painted the furniture...








Purchased fabric, and more fabric...Made pillow shams...

And artwork...



Purchased accessories...
 

  
Changed out the curtain rods...  (Chick "pushed" for new rods a bit, I'm SO glad I changed them out, it makes a huge difference!)

From this...
To these...

Even made a custom tote bag to bring it "over the finish line"...





One last reminder of our inspiration room...
I hope you like it as much as we do!  From start to finish it took us about six weeks.  The total cost was roughly $200 for everything.  When I ordered the PB fabric, I didn't realized I was getting five yards, not one.  What we are thinking about doing is, to the right of the bed there is a good-sized niche.  When the weather gets warmer, we are going to paint one our old book shelves white (the chick loves to read!) and look for a stool or bench that I can upholster or make a cushion with some of the fabric.  If you would like a yard or two, let me know, I'll give you a good deal.

 If anyone would like tutorials on the pink pillow or tote bag, leave me a comment.  I took photos along the way.  I'm linking this to these generous, creative ladies' blogs!:

    The PB-inspired room looks awesome, chic and funky at the same time - perfect for a teen!!! Great job! I was thinking you could even use some of the PB fabric to "wallpaper" the inside back of your bookshelves you may add in order to tie it in to the room. Enjoy!

    Love your interpretation of the PB room. Fantastic makeover. Love the variety of colored pillows (esp. the brown polka dot) and the Shaker Gray is wonderful. I really like that you took a non-bedroom inspiration and perfectly captured it in your bedroom redo. I'm sure your daughter is loving it.
