Some of you long-time readers are thinking, ‘She still hasn’t finished that room yet?!’ Um, no…no we have not. #inserteyeroll We’re still putting the finishing touches on Little Miss’s space, but the problem with taking three years to finish a room (especially an almost-12 year old’s room!), is her styles and ideas change about 100 times during that period!
Obviously I’m not going to give her a new makeover every time inspiration strikes, and we’ve stuck pretty close to the initial design board, and thanks to some recent eBay scores, we are almost done!
You may recall we had the cutest pom-pom trimmed duvet set on her bed (see it here), but unfortunately kids, washing machines and pom-pom trim don’t mix well, and over time we had more pom-poms on the floor than we did the duvet. Obviously the new set needed to be a little sturdier, and preferably a style she wouldn’t outgrow a year from now!
We both fell in love with this darling polka dot Kate Spade duvet, but I hesitated because I know her stuff can be pricey…until I remembered eBay! (Remember I scored great finds for our Christmas Front Porch there?!) A quick search for ‘Kate Spade Home Decor‘ not only turned up the exact bedding, but these darling polka dot lamps, too! #score
I don’t know why I was so surprised…they have over 1 billion listings, plus, 81% of them are brand new, and most are ‘buy it now.’ You can still bid on things, but I much prefer the quick and easy method of knowing it’s mine! And even though each seller has different policies, eBay offers a money back guarantee on all purchases!

Another big step towards room completion is the ceiling!! We finally found the right shade of blue, and had her pitched ceiling painted in her color of choice. It’s a fun, unexpected surprise, and really accents the tall ceiling.
I love that its such a happy space, and perfectly suits her personality. Our last hurdle is a desk area and corralling her snow globe collection! Happy Valentine’s Day, lovebugs!

Everything is so bright and happy!!
The room is precious, and it totally reflects your sweet and spunky girl’s personality! Such a fun space!
The room is darling! Where is the happy land pillow from?
Cute cute cute curtains! Where did you find them?
Lol-Still hasn’t finished that room? What a fun and funny post. Can’t wait to check out some of the links.
That sky blue ceiling. I know they do that on old historical front porches in the South, and Mackinac Island, MI. It has meaning, just not sure what it is. To mimic the sky? To give the feeling of coolness? For good luck? I’ve heard all these answers. Interesting! Oh, those puppy googly eyes!
Oh yes! I’m most definitely a Kate Spade fan! Polka dots lighten us up. What a darling bedroom for your little darling. Sweetness and cuteness all around.
I love it!
How fun! The pompom garland with lights is absolutely PERFECT. Did you make it or buy it?
I’m interested too!
The garland is from Land of Nod, and the lights are just leftover from Christmas…she loved them so much she left them there! We just loosely draped it over the picture. xo
The room is amazing! Love it! But I have to say, I love how the puppy is such a ham! What a dear!
This room is fabulous! It’s so colorful and happy!!! : )
We are in the same mode right now and soooo close! We did an update about a year ago…dummy me decided over Christmas to move the kids rooms around and upgrade to queen beds so all that went down the drain. We are trying to keep the bedding cute but simple enough to last through the teen years and just update with euro pillows over time. So hoping to have this marked off soon!
We are literally in the same process with my 11 year old. We finally picked out the third comforter and I think we are going to keep it!
We have been in the hunt for that exact horse picture!! Where is it from? Thanks!
Here you go!! https://rstyle.me/n/68yx9pw5w
I want that horse print for my bedroom!!
I think you mentioned the curtain panels are throws you purchased. I’m dying to know where you found them. They are fab!!
It’s fabric from here: https://www.onlinefabricstore.net

I love the space for your daughter. I love anything Kate Spade. I love the pop of red on the head and foot boards.
The room looks perfect & you’ve inspired me to update my new tween’s room. Where can I find the drapes? They are so happy and cheery!
It’s fabric I found online!! I took it to a local tailor and she sewed the panels for me! https://www.onlinefabricstore.net
Cassie,
The room is so cute and definitely has the “sugarplum” stamp on it. Thanks so much for reminding me about ebay deals. Getting new merchandise for cheaper prices is definitely a win-win. I think I need to go do some shopping now. HAHA

Your daughter’s room is just perfect….adorable, fun, and not too fussy. For the past few months, I have been eyeing that exact Kate Spade lamp at Home Goods. I stopped in this week, and they have other Kate Spade lamps that are similar and just as adorable.
I’ve seen the navy polka dot ones….so cute!!!!
hey girls! what is the blue paint color? love it!

The blue ceiling looks so awesome in there!!! The polka dot duvet and lamps look so great too. What a beautiful room for a beautiful girl!
