Designing My Daughter’s Dream Bedroom

As a parent, there is nothing more rewarding than transforming a space into a sanctuary for your child. After completing numerous projects around the house, I finally set my sights on my youngest daughter’s room. I aimed to create a functional yet aesthetically pleasing space that reflected her personal style. Partnering with Dunn-Edwards DURA paint (Instagram @dunnedwardsdura), the entire process became a delightful journey towards making my daughter’s room her little haven.

Choosing the Perfect Paint Color

To kickstart the project, I sought the expertise of Dunn-Edwards DURA paint. Their commitment to exceeding expectations led me to book a color consultation with their knowledgeable experts. I was pleasantly surprised when they made my daughter an integral part of the process, involving her in the consultation and asking for her input. This collaborative approach resulted in a selection of paint samples that perfectly captured her vision.

After receiving a detailed color report and peel-and-stick samples from Dunn-Edwards DURA, we settled on Mist of Green (DE5707) in a matte finish for the walls, White Picket Fence (DET648) in a semi-gloss finish for the trim, and the Classic White (DEHW08) ceiling paint. Dunn-Edwards DURA went above and beyond by delivering all the paint and supplies directly to our doorstep. Alongside the paint, they included essential tools such as rollers, brushes, paint trays, and edging tape, making the process seamless and efficient.

The Transformation Process

With all the necessary materials at hand, we began by clearing out the furniture and other items from the room. Once the space was emptied, we embarked on the exhilarating task of painting. Thanks to the thoughtfully provided accessories, the job was straightforward and enjoyable.

As the room transformed with each brushstroke, it started to emanate a personalized ambiance tailored to my daughter’s taste. Buoyed by the progress, I focused on the remaining details to complete the transformation.

Adding the Finishing Touches

To elevate the room’s aesthetics further, I sought out a charming chandelier to replace the dated ceiling fan. Its delicate glow added a touch of elegance, casting a warm and inviting atmosphere. Additionally, I introduced a vibrant rug to infuse the floor with personality and comfort.

Carefully selecting a new side table, I ensured it aligned with my daughter’s preferences, providing a convenient surface for her personal belongings. Curtains became the window’s new companions, subtly accentuating the natural light and offering a stylish frame for her room. I made sure to incorporate her indoor lounge swing, so she could bring the outdoors to her own room.

The Reveal

Transforming my daughter’s room into a personalized haven was a rewarding experience that allowed me to witness her joy firsthand. The partnership with Dunn-Edwards DURA paint proved invaluable, as their expertise, attention to detail, and thoughtful approach enhanced the entire process. From selecting the perfect colors to providing all the necessary supplies, they made the journey seamless and enjoyable.

As my daughter now immerses herself into the room that has now become her haven, I am reminded of the power of creating a space that reflects and supports her interests. The transformation has not only provided her with a functional and aesthetically pleasing room but also instilled in her a sense of pride and ownership. With every swing on her indoor lounge swing, she will be reminded that her room is a sanctuary designed just for her, a testament to her unique personality and aspirations.
