COOPER is so very excited, DARE I SAY THRILLED….to be getting his own room for the first time in his life…and has been coming to me with architectural RENDERINGS and drafts and drawings of his NEW IMPROVED room ….he is a boy after my own heart!

Decorating his room takes a departure from my usual palate of pastels and soft Beach colors…and into the world of …NEUTRALS – clean lines and natural woods and metals…

We have been “BINGE” watching “WHITE COLLAR” on Netflix and have been inspired by the the lead character Neal’s bedroom/apartment …..truth be told…”Neal” himself is a bit inspirational .

We love the mix of natural wood and grays and black…Here are our colors:

WALLS: BENJAMIN MOORE HORIZON

HERE ARE SOME MORE INSPIRATION ROOMS…

 

ACCENTS – GRAPHITE

 

SIMPLE NEUTRALS – GRAYS, BLACK AND NATURAL WOOD GIVE A MORE GROWN UP FEEL TO THE ROOM….

 

TRIM – CHANTILLY LACE

I LIKE THIS COLOR FOR THE “POP”…IT STILL IS A MORE “QUIET” COLOR….HERE IS ANOTHER QUILT…THIS COULD BE GREAT ACROSS THE FOOT OF THE BED…

MILES TO GO AND KIDS TO GET BACK TO SCHOOL AND OFF TO COLLEGE BEFORE THIS MAKEOVER BECOMES A REALITY….BUT THINKING ABOUT IT IS A NICE DISTRACTION FROM THE CHANGES AHEAD…

DO YOU HAVE ANY MAKEOVERS LINED UP FOR THE FALL???

PS – DONT MISS THE LILLY PULITZER “AFTER PARTY” SALE TOMORROW AND TUESDAY -THEY DO THESE SALES TWICE A YEAR AND THE SAVINGS ARE INSANE!!!
