Coral And Aqua Bedroom

**This post is incredibly picture heavy!!**

I'm so excited about today's post!!

I haven't done a big room reveal since I shared our baby nursery with you guys and this one is just as gorgeous!!

It is just so so fun doing kids rooms- it's my favorite thing :)

And doing girl's rooms are so fun. All the girly touches, bling & fun accessories.

I'm having just as fun doing little mister's room too but his is coming together a little bit more slowly.

If you hadn't caught it yet, we moved into our new home back in October and have slowly been working on getting the rooms decorated and together.

The baby's room is pretty much the same as the original reveal- we pretty much just transplanted it into her new room. The only difference is a little more molding and a painted ceiling :)

The next room I knew I wanted to tackle was Emi's room. She's nine going on 16 (or so she thinks) and this was a BIG deal because at the old house, her and little mister shared a room.

It worked great for the couple of years we were there but she was so so so excited to be getting her own space.

The easy part about her room was that we actually had redone several of the bigger pieces for her room almost three years ago!! They've been sitting in storage ever since and thank goodness that blue is still her favorite color!! We didn't think it would take so long to find the perfect house so those pretty pieces were just waiting to fill up a girl's room!

I was almost giddy about pulling them out and actually getting them set up!

So...onto details you can actually see.

Here's the room we were working with....

This room is right by the front door when you walk in. It was actually meant to be the office so it has gorgeous french doors and a huge, beautiful window.

Emi loved it as soon as she saw it!

We had other plans for our office/craft room so this room was always, in our head, going to be a bedroom. The only down side was that it didn't have a closet, but we've somehow managed to make that work out for us.

I mean, look at that gorgeous window.

And the chunky trim!! Swoon.

I fell in love with all the beautiful trim-work in the house, it was definitely what put it over the top in my head. It's something that makes me extremely happy for no other reason than I just think it's gorgeous.

So onto making this into a pretty girl's room!

We were going for happy, bright & glam- all things Emi loves.

So let's see if we hit the mark!!

What do you think?!?

Are you dying?

This room is one of my favorite rooms to just walk into.

If I'm ever stressed about the rest of the house coming together (because sometimes it feels like it never will!!), I can just walk in here and breathe a little sigh of relief.

It's just a happy room to be in!

Emi was in LOVE with her french doors from the start.

They are beautiful and her room looks gorgeous through them.

We've thrown around ideas for curtains or door coverings but haven't felt the urge to really do anything to them yet. I'm sure as she gets older, we will add something for added privacy.

For now, she usually changes in the bathroom anyways.

Want a closer look?

I'll give a complete run-down on the source list for most things in the room at the bottom of the post, but I'll give some details along the way too!

When choosing colors, we knew that we didn't really want a hot pink... we looked at several different ones and Emi loved the more corally-colored ones.

So we went from there.

The coral wall is called "Charisma" by Sherwin Williams and we accented it by painting the other three (and the ceiling) "Passive" by Sherwin Williams.

It's a really pretty blueish grey.

The bedding is from Target and was for her bday- she got outfitted with a lot of fun new things for her new room.

The cute gold pillow and all the white pillows are Target too.

Her full-sized bed was a big upgrade from her twin bottom bunk!!

The blue and coral pillows were DIY projects I did to bring the other colors in.

The cute owl was made by an amazingly-talented friend of mine.

One of my favorite redos for the room is the upright dresser.

You will absolutely not believe what it looked like before!
It needed a lot of love & a huge color upgrade- which is what it got.
I'll be sharing the amazing before & after of it soon!

Her monogrammed stool is tucked in next to her dresser.

The corner of the room behind the dresser is home to her pouf, cuddly animals and her cute art/book cart. I updated a small rolling cart to give her some much-needed storage for all her craft supplies & books. I'm thinking of adding a cute little light or chandelier over her pouf but at the moment, it's super cute as is.

Above her dresser I hung a vintage frame painted in her blue and her pretty little wreath she made a couple years ago is perfect hanging in the middle of it.

We updated her wreath for her new room by painting the "E" coral and switching out ribbons from pink to gold. '

Both frames are from Kirklands- the white frame was more of an off-white color so I brushed a brighter white onto it so it wouldn't clash.

The eiffel tower was a Marshall's find that I spraypainted gold.

Em is obsessed with Paris...but what girl isn't?

On that same wall, we hung a couple pieces of art to tie in some of the other colors.
The 'soar' chalkboard hung in their old room.

The blue and gold piece was made from an old canvas and some sparkly gold scallop decals I found on clearance.

I simply painted the canvas and added the decals. Easy peasy.

Her pretty little vanity was her Christmas present this year- she definitely needed an area to keep all her girly stuff.

The drawers are stocked with nail polish, lip gloss & anything else a girl could want!

We purchased this off Amazon and it was the perfect size to fit next to her bed!

I did re-upholster the stool to go with her decor. Reupholstering is seriously one of the easiest and fastest ways to customize anything!!

All the cute accessories on top are pretty much from Marshalls. The vintage perfume bottle and milk glass vase were flea market finds.

Her rug used to be in the nursery but we liked it better in here- the new nursery has carpet so it wasn't a necessity.

It definitely helped ground the bed and everything against the dark wood floors.

Her beautiful bed was one of the projects completed several years ago.

That headboard has been sitting in storage just DYING to get out and be displayed.

If it were bigger, I'd have pulled it out to use for our room.

I'm in love with this gorgeous piece.

I'll be sharing the before & after on the headboard soon too.

Like the dresser, you'll be amazed at what is under that pretty blue paint.

Besides the bed itself, let's talk about the other centerpiece of the room.

That enormous "E"!!

We searched for several weeks for the perfect piece to put above the bed.

I went back and forth between several different things but Emi just loved the huge E we found at Hobby Lobby.

I did change it a tad and it was the easiest thing in the world to do.

It seriously makes the room come together and is such a pretty statement piece.

It's also probably the most expensive piece in the room- ha!

Most everything else was thrifted or gifted- and I'm usually pretty thrifty about what I spend on decor pieces.

I think this guy ran close to $40 on sale but it was totally worth it to finish off the room.

And it's just my frugal mind that went a little crazy over spending that money on an 'e'.
