What's Tutti Frutti Pink, Black and Zebra All Over?

Why, it's Teagan's new bedroom of course! Now that she's almost 9 it was time to update her room. The room was still the same as when we moved in; minus a few minor cosmetic changes. In the planning stages we discussed quite a few colors. Should we paint each wall a different color? If so, pink, teal, purple and green got the thumbs up. What if we did ALL the walls pink? Would it be too much?

Then inspiration hit! In the size of a sleep eye covering Teagan decided that pink, black and zebra would be absolutely perfect. Hmmmmm, black?! I then turned to Google and searched "Pink and Black Zebra Bedroom" and I found a perfect match. We found a room online that gave me (as mom) the confidence that a black wall wouldn't be too bad!

First stop, Ace True Value to rent a steamer. We had to empty the room and get that stubborn wallpaper border off first.

Then it was time to get that Tutti Frutti and black on the walls! It was a weekend project but so much fun to do with Ryan. I did some edging while Ryan was the paint roller extraordinaire!

Here are the two colors coming together. Not too bad!

And now it's time to put the room back together. SHHHHH - Teagan is sleeping in Nolan's room and won't see it until morning.

She loves it!  And to think an eyepatch was all it took for this inspiration!

I love your new room, baby my growing girl! I hope you continue to have the sweetest dreams each and every night. And remember, I love you to the moon and back!
