Chez Moi - a sneak peek into Neva's room

Come on in....

Recently I decided to update Neva's room {Neva Marie is my almost-5-year old and part of the name of my blog...} with accents of chocolate brown. I know it's a little trendy, but it's so cute with pink! And everything in her room is pink. It's her favorite color. The walls are Carnation Pink and the daybed {bless my mother's heart} was mine from the 1980's. Not exactly what I wanted, but nostalgic nonetheless.

Sorry the lighting is so bad {not sure why they look so gray?}... her room is actually pretty pink.





When I updated her room, I used existing pillows and recovered them with brown and white polka dot fabric, and pink and white paisley fabric on the faux fur one. Cheap and easy. Her quilt is actually flipped over today to lighten things up a bit. Normally it's on the hot-pink with white polka dot side. I prefer the lighter pinstripes. There is a plush chocolate brown blanket on one end of the bed perfect for naps {which she very rarely takes. darnit.}


Her vintage dresser which used to be mine.


Her little collection of teacups and eiffel towers, and the cute frenchy figurines {on the bottom shelf. so cute}

Her dress up station in the corner is a vintage coat rack. It's filled with princess dresses.

p.s. I know the drapes are too short. I have yet to buy fabric to extend them. Just keepin' it real girls.


A vintage restaurantware platter and 2 new transferware plates around a picture of my 2 girls together when Ava was only 3 months old...

A little vignette with an old picture frame, a cute little bird's nest and homemade Paris artwork {made out of scrapbook paper and a photocopy of a Paris gift bag}

One more shot of the bed and mirrors above. The ribbon on the antique ceiling tin miror hangs from a vintage glass knob. I used brown ribbon a lot throughout the room to add little shots of brown here and there.

Her darling lamp which I updated with brown pom-pom fringe hot glued on.

Another shot of the too-short drapes. The only things I didn't photograph were the Rose Petal Cottage and the play kitchen. Thought I'd spare you.

That's it! Thanks so much for stopping by...
