{Piece by Piece} Leann's Bedroom

So let's get Monday rocking with a little ditty I like to call "Piece by Piece". This will be a regular feature and it's chock full of info to help you find the products you see in the room, or just give you some design inspiration. Questions are welcome if you need more specifics.

Most of these will be rooms I have done, but as we grow, we'll take some reader submissions, or create personalized "piece by piece" segments based on requests. I'll also include a budget breakdown at the end. So exciting!! Let's get started...

Leann's Bedroom

One of my favorites for the cutest little blue-eyed, brown-haired girl you ever did see. At 6 years old, she was all girl, all hot pink, and all frills. Now she can dress up in her vintage hats and TWIRL TWIRL TWIRL in front of those mirrors. (I've been watching too many episodes of Real Housewives).

Mom and Dad wanted a room that would grow with her. No over the top themes or toddler decor. Something that would take her into her early teens. This room was a combination of re-purposed items and brand-spanking new items. We did have a budget, so we invested heavily into the bed and drapes, and used our creative genius to put the rest together. 'Cuz that's we do:). BAM!!.

Who is that woman behind that blog?

I always find it refreshing when a blogger I admire - one who seems to have it all together (perfect life, perfect family, perfect career) - writes about what is really happening behind the pictures of a clean house and an organized pantry.

I thought it would be a great idea to let you in on some of my deepest, darkest secrets (and some of my redeeming qualities), and show you that I'm pretty real, and have some R E A L issues too:).

I am a 42 year old mother of one daughter, Emma, and wife to my best friend, Todd. I am 6'1" tall, and while I used to be self- conscious about that, I now embrace it. I am hoping to teach my daughter the same. I'm pretty sure she will surpass me in height, and I want her to be comfortable in her own skin.
