Let me tell you, it was a LONG process! We had originally painted the below piece of furniture (follow link for the make-over) a light yellow to match the sheets that I picked up at HomeGoods and made into curtains.

We sat with that current set up for a couple of months before finally deciding that neither myself, nor my husband, nor many friends and family, liked the color scheme we had chosen.

So, it was back to the drawing board and I had looked EVERYWHERE for curtains, which I wanted to be the jumping off point and big pattern and color for the room. Below is what the end result looks like. I LOVE IT!

P.S. The curtains are from Pottery Barn. They were very expensive, but at that point I think Kyle and I were both sick of trying to find something we liked, so he let me splurge 🙂 Such a good husband!
