Dorm Room Decor


She has been away at college for almost 3 weeks. Here's the
before shot of the fully loaded car!


Macy and her roomate Madeline decided on a black and
white color scheme. Macy's accent color is yellow.


She LOVES penguins, so I found this cute one at Joann's.
I broke out the ole sewing machine and made the 2 smaller
pillows. The one on the right is circles of black linen
and it is really cute in person.


Madeline's accent color is pink. She had a cute
headboard and matching pillow made. The room
looks really nice!


This lamp was pink and white before I sanded, painted and
pommed it up. Good as new for the dorm room!


All smiles after a day of hard work. Notice the pretty black
and white damask curtain and a bit of art for the wall.


Macy and Madeline were very pleased with the finished room.


There were no tears shed when we left...just look how happy
she is!! But....we do miss her!

  1. Times have really changed since my kids were in college and their rooms looked like jail cells. You and the girls did a great job making the room look cozy and inviting! Cute, cute, cute!

  3. Your daughter is just beautiful, Kana. She looks like a lovely girl, too. I cannot believe the dorm room...you (and your daughter and roommate) did an incredible job. It is stunning. Mine was a jail cell like Joyce's and had cement block walls and linoleum floors. It was new and I thought it was sooooo special!

    I am so glad you have come back to blogging. I have lurked for too long!!!
