Boho Chic Teen Girl Room Makeover

Teen Girls RoomJenny SulpizioComment

This room.

This one right here?

It took almost two years to complete! TWO YEARS!

Sometimes clients can’t make up their minds. Other times, they change their minds mid-project which adds time and money to the original plans.

And then sometimes you have the toughest client ever…one you just so happened to also give birth to.

Ladies (and if there are any dudes reading this), gentlemen—Annie’s room is finally done! Finally! This girl almost killed me in the process thereof but it is finished…and I am so glad. Plus, I really love how it turned out so all the details are being shared below.

Here we go…

For whatever reason, I cannot find my “before” pics from when we first moved in, but trust me when I tell you that the walls were ugly. Four textured walls in a pale (ish) yellow color that was anything but fun. So, we got to work.

I asked Nate Koogle to add interest by creating this feature wall of boxed moldings and he totally rocked it. AFC painted it SW Tricorn Black to add some “pa-pow” to the room. The remaining walls were redone in SW Snowfall, and the ceiling got a coat of bright white ceiling paint to top it off.

About mid-way into this makeover, we had a bug infestation. Like, a gross one. Annie had to vacate the room. Luckily it was contained but after ripping up her carpet, I decided that the flooring I eventually wanted to replace the rest of my home with, should go in there instead. And so it did.

One thing was certain about this space: Annie wanted Boho. She loved the simplicity of a minimalist type of space with the freedom of style that Boho provides. The inspiration? The beautiful butterfly poster art we found at Dandy Home & Ranch. From this one piece we added in warm, bold colors of yellow (pillows and blankets) and Jade green (velvet European pillows).

I found the wicker headboard from a friend locally, and the basic nightstands from IKEA (super cheap). Copper table lamps were purchased on clearance from Hobby Lobby and the bedding was found through Amazon.

If you look closer at the bedding in the top pic, you’ll notice the white pom fringe on the ends. I purchased black pom garland and had it added to to give a little more detail and contrast with the bedding. I love black pom garland anyways and I just think it kicks the bedding up a notch.

Annie is a minimalist when it comes to her style (as mentioned earlier), and the other half of her bedroom represents this well. IKEA shelving extends in a single row all the way across the top of her South-facing wall. Plant hangers and pots accentuate the corner while a beveled mirror and basic white desk (Pottery Barn Teen) finish the space.

As for the large white wall in this area? Annie has a projector she connects her phone to in order to provide an instant (and super large) TV. That space will remain bare for her viewing pleasure.

A modern but simple ceiling fan was added to complete the look. Ceiling fans are a must here in AZ and this one was just too fun not to purchase.
