Poodles, Paris and a Pink Bedroom

Poodles, Paris and pink make for a cute girls room - Design DazzleAre you into Poodles, Pink or Paris? If so, you might like this room that I designed for my daughter (she used to love pink:)) I started collecting items for this room a little over four years ago. We found out we were moving – so I held off on starting in the room until we moved; I finished the room over 2 years ago. I painted the wall stripes Cupcake by Martha Stewart ( the paints are no longer available but I do have the formula below). The lighter color of the paint is 75% of the original color.

Here’s the formula for 8367 Cupcake (Martha Stewart Signature is no longer made). If you take this formula to Sherwin Williams they will make it for you: Sherwin Williams Luminous White base gallon size
Maroon                          1 (64)
R4 New Red    47 (32)   1 (64)
Y3-Deep Gold   1 (32)      1  (120)the numbers in parentheses are the colorant oz
not sure if the maroon is R1?? This paint color is the darker of the pink stripes.

Sewing is a hobby of mine; I sewed the polka dotted seat cushion and collected the rest of the pillows. The wood awning was designed by me and put together by my contractor (who happened to be at our house installing kitchen cabinets).

Poodles, Paris and pink make for a cute girls room - Design DazzleRound mirror was purchased at Lowes for $10 (don’t cha love this kind of find). As you can see in the reflection of the mirror, there is a full-length mirror on the opposite wall (purchased for $6 from Walmart). I hot glued black feather boas around the perimeter of the mirror.

Chalkboard idea on closet doors - super easy! Design DazzleChalkboard paint was used on the closet doors. The doors are trimmed out in the same pink as the dark stripes on the wall. A little heart (with wings) next to the closet doors holds the chalk. My daughter and her friends are constantly writing and rewriting on the chalkboard.

How adorable would this artwork look in a Parisian theme bedroom? Which art would you choose…the sophisticated ladies, the chandeliers, the proper dogs or the cute whimsical poodle?

    That is an amazing room. Wish I had that when I was little. YOu did a great job. I love the stripes and the chandelier and well… everything about it. Your sewing looks awesome and probably saved you tons of $$$!

    Super sweet room! Your daughter is lucky. Of course, I hope she doesn’t get sick of pink!

    Now THAT’s a great room Toni! I love everything about it. The chandelier is perfect, along with the custom canopy, and the stripes. So many things here to make it magazine, or Design Dazzle “worthy”. Fabulous job!

    Hi! I'm in the process of decorating my adult-version of this Paris, Poodles, and (some) Pink theme! I landed on this blog searching for some finishing touches.

    Currently I've got mostly black and white, but the Paris and Poodles are there, I've got damask and polka dots incorporated, and some pink accent color.

    Everyone keeps suggesting a pastel pink wall, but I am very averse to that, it to me says "girl aged 13 or under". The advisers all tell me "oh no it doesn't" but I've never wanted a pink wall and to me it does. I'm thinking of going with something the pastel pink accents can be set off against, with a Tiffany Box blue wall perhaps. We'll see.

    Thanks for the inspiration! I am actually now wishing I could try to work that awning idea into my window. Probably not, as my living situation is not permanent and windows are very un-standard. 🙂

    Just wanted to thank you for some great ideas!

    The hat boxes were purchased 10+ years ago. They no longer manufacturer them. Home Goods sometimes sells hat boxes. You could paint them yourself.
