I can't believe I am posting the last room in the model home! It's been so fun to share this home with you. For a look at the past room reveals go here. 

Today I'm sharing my favorite room. The budget for the kids' room was $1,000 and I think we came in under budget! It was actually pretty easy to stick to the budget with this room because we didn't need a lot of furniture. And the furniture that we did use we got for a great deal. 

Here is the board I created for the room. 

I wanted the room to feel gender neutral. There are elements that are a little more "boy" and elements that could be translated as "girl". This scheme would work well for a shared bedroom. 

Here is how the room turned out!

Striped Duvet: West Elm

Metal Red Headboard: This was a great find on Craigslist. I think we got it for around $15.

Paint Color: Benjamin Moore Del Mar Blue 

Dream Big Pillow: Robin and Mould on Etsy

Chevron Pillow: I used the leftover fabric from Jett's headboard for this pillow. The pillow was sewn by Local Utah Seamstress Alli Middleton alliemp07@live.com

Red Lamp: Target

Be Nice Print: Sarah Jane Studios

Toy: Home Again Consignment

Nightstand: I found this at Savers over a year ago for $15! I've been saving it and saving it for something and I love how it looks in this kid's room. We just gave it a fresh coat of white paint. 

Bird Mobile: Donated by Annie's Mobile Boutique

ABC Letters: These were Christmas ornaments from Anthropologie that I got after Christmas for $2 a piece! I just took the ornament hooks off. 

To me the real star of the room is the roman shade. This was our "splurge" in the room. The fabric is Arbre Chinoise in Meadow by Schumacher. 

Rocking Chair: Vinnie White Cradle Chair from Overstock

Goldfish Pillow: Digs

Stacking Boxes: I bought these at Serena and Lily on sale for $30 but they are no longer available. 

Green Stool: Home Again Consignment 

Thank you for all your comments and support with this home. It was a really fun experience for me. There are a lot of things that made it hard. Being sick during my first trimester really put the project on hold for a few months. It was such a great feeling to finally finish the project. Some days I thought it would never get done!

I also have to say that I could never have completed this without my amazing interns. Thanks to Haley, Kayley and Carly for their help with the home.

And also the wonderful Jylare for taking all the pictures!

0 HOT Product Party

I had such a great time at the last Moms' Best HOT product party that I was delighted to attend another one! 

We were able to examine and review tons of adorable and cool products for moms and babies. The best part is that all of the items were donated to the Riverside Area Rape Crisis Center. 

You can see these products, and vote for them here.

The food was donated by one of my favorite places to eat, Kneaders. 

I loved getting to catch up with fellow bloggers. Above is my giant pregnant belly totally covering up Danielle Oakey in this picture. Sorry Danielle! 

We also had the opportunity to write letters to victims at the Riverside Rape Crisis Center.  

It was a fun night. Thanks to The Moms Best Network for inviting me!

A couple of weeks ago I was invited to a sneak peak tour of the DIY Blogger House in the Salt Lake Parade of Homes. They took a group of bloggers and gave them each a space in the home to design. The house itself is in Daybreak right down the street from me. 

The first room we walked through was designed by Jen of Tatertots and Jello. This was one of my favorite rooms. She did a lot of creative things with the space. 

All of these photos are from her blog. 

The desk was a craigslist find that she painted herself. The rug was hand-painted to bring in a fun custom touch. 

You can see more details and pictures of her room on Jen's blog here. 

The next room was designed by Brian Clark. 

All of the above photos were taken from Tatertots and Jello. 

I also really loved the kitchen and dining area designed by Shelley Smith. 

She made this tiny pantry really usable. 

I also loved this custom built-in.

The Laundry room was designed by Amy from The Idea Room. 

All of the bloggers did a great job. I've been visiting a lot of homes in the Parade of Homes and I can't wait to share some other beautiful houses with you next week!
