We recently did a room flip for a client's little girl.  She was thrilled with the result!

What's the best way to go green?  Use what you have!

We repurposed a clients furniture & totally transformed the style of her home.

At a rummage sale we scored a jewelry box full of great pins.  The original owner's name was Helen, she had a Helen pin and many safe driver pins.  They were all so unique - some funny - some pretty.  We made them into a C for Cassidy.

We collected several sewing items for her.  One jar is full of zippers, one with buttons, and another has lots of sewing items.  She had a sewing machine as well that was super cute.

We found an old armoire & painted it black.  We painted the inset with chalkboard paint so she'd have an area to get creative.  On top of the armoire is a vintage sewing machine case, sewing drawers, knitting needles, and a jar of thread.

We also found a dress form.  We added some pins & a belt made of a measuring tape.

For window treatments, we used yardsticks.

She had an amazing iron bed.  We reupholstered the insets with a coordinating fabric.  Her grandma is making her an amazing quilt with lots of greens, blues, and purples.  It's arriving this week.  We also painted her side table a punchy blue.  A vintage lamp was painted black to match the bed.  Funky hands are a fun accessory.

She wanted a chalkboard wall, but her walls are textured.  So the next best thing was a large chalkboard.  We took an old 1970's framed painting that was pretty ugly & we painted over it and the frame with chalkboard paint.  This was a great way to make a large framed chalkboard for less.

She was also always pinning things to her wall, so her Mom requested some typee of bulletin board so we took old frames & put chicken wire into them.  This allows her to display her favorite things.

We made flowers out of vintage patterns & hung a cute bag up to store her clothes pins.

She had a family desk that we painted the punchy blue.  This makes a great workspace for her to craft, tackle homework, or use as a vanity.

We took a folding tape measure and made it into a quick star.  She has more pattern flowers on her desk as well.
