It all looks very hip and young, all the nice vintage pieces thrown in are very cool. The rattan stool is my favorite part as well. You did a great job at restraining yourself from distressing and slip covering things! ;) Have a great day! P.S. We made an offer on a house tonight. Hopefully I'll be back to blogging soon.

My daughter moved ALL the stuff home from the apartment she used for 3 years during grad school, this past May -- and now we're trying to make peace between her things and mine. It's a rocky transition!<br /><br />Anyway -- I ADORE decorating on a shoestring... and you did beautifully.

I love the colors of her furniture and accent pieces. Very, very pretty! Actually, we did something similar for our daughter last year. We enclosed our upstairs game room with double doors and made a huge bedroom for her. These kids need the space but they are not quite ready to leave home yet!

Lots of bright colours I especially like the pops of yellow around the desk - yellow is good for mind stimulation so perfect choice for study areas.
