I am a linking participant in Calling it Home's One room Challenge and it is week 2!
I left out my inspiration board last week because I just had not wrapped my head around what I was going to do.
Things may still change but we are keeping the bed, curtains and loveseat.
The desk situation is still up in the air with no chair in sight. Why is it that when you don't need a chair you see 50 really cool chairs for around 50 cents or something and when you need one there is nothing?
So far I am on budget with lots of goodies and surprises for my daughter (and you).
Her walls and much of her furniture is white and we already have the yellow and white chevron curtains. You may remember from last week the goofy color scheme that was all over the place.
Since I am also keeping the bed that is a warm gray/linen color, I have to factor that in.
The colors will look like this:
As I said, I will be keeping the linen and yellow in the room but I will brighten the look with a healthy dose of blue and white fabrics, art and accessories. I am also going to add a smattering of gold/ brass too.
I have made some major thrifting scores like the blue and white porcelain I featured on Monday.
I still have work to do but at least I know where its all going.

Kerry I know what you mean about finding what you're searching for at the right time. Feast or famine! Totally on board with the color scheme and most looking forward to seeing the art in the space!!
Love the colors and I adore the blue and white items! So classic!
Oh, Kerry! This is so beautiful!! I absolutely LOVE the color scheme and how you tied in your daughter's beautiful art as well. And of course the blue and white pieces are fantastic! I still cannot get over how perfect that slotted piece is for the paint brushes.
XOXO,

Great color scheme. It should be a fun room when you're done.
I know exactly what you mean about the dearth of chairs when you need one. Your mood board looks great. Lucky girl!

I love it all! Especially the elephant touches. Good luck finding that perfect chair - I know exactly what you mean!

I love the color palate! Sometimes deciding on a color direction is the hardest part, isn't it?! That was my goal for this week and I think I finally narrowed it down. So glad to have found you through the ORC!
