Just a Thought... Dorm Room tranformation begins

Hi all,

I just spent time at the 2014 Haven Conference last week and it was amazing. I met a lot of ridiculously talented bloggers and have so many ideas for my blog and my future that I can’t even share them yet. But watch out, there’s a change coming.  If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you may have seen some of the pictures from the Haven Conference.

 

Right now in my personal life, there are a lot of changes happening as well. The most important is the move to a college campus and dorm room apartment for my baby girl, Cass. So, I plan  to blog about some of  the diy projects that will help make her on campus apartment a home.

The starting point is her bedroom (each girl has her own bedroom) in this 4 bedroom, 2 bath apartment. This is a very modern on campus apartment with hardwood floors and granite counter tops! Boy oh boy, college life has really changed since , well never mine how long ago it was, let's just say, things have really changed!

Back to the bedroom. I saw this really cool comforter set at Marshalls and she liked it as well, so she is  going with grey, orange ( more a deep coral/orange) with touches of turquoise. Here’s what we are starting with.

                                                  5 piece comforter set and fleece throw                        

First up will be personalizing her orange throw ( less than $10 at Ross). Next will be adding a little something to  the grey polka dot box ( $5 at $5 Below)

                   1 of the pillows included in the set, the throw and a polka dot box for clutter control!

What do you think of this color scheme?

I'm thinking it was meant to be as I just happened to have both of these fabrics in my fabric stash just waiting to become throw pillows. 

And we're off... I'm thinking rugs and maybe curtains next!!
