Big Savings!

I am happy we are through with our Princess' bedroom. For months this set of white furniture has been sitting in the garage waiting for my husband to work on. We bought it USED, it looked really ugly with all the writings, stains and damaged parts inside and chipped paint all over the drawers made by the previous owner... nobody would ever want to buy it , but since this furniture is made with the highest quality from a reputable furniture company the foundation and interior of the furniture showed no damage at all... my husband took the risk and paid $600 for the drawer, night stand, a mirror and a computer desk.

He ordered the missing parts from the company, fixed the damaged ones, sanded it and repainted the whole set and voila! He made it look like NEW. If we bought this entire set brand new we could've paid over 2 thousand dollars for they are expensive piece of furniture. For the desk alone, it would cost you $600 plus the mirror,drawer/chest and the nightstand?

But my husband is not the kind who will just jump into buying new things and won't even dare to exert some effort in order to save himself some money. Imagine the big savings we got for getting a used furniture and transforming it into like NEW! The price of a desk pays the entire thing and we are glad. Look how pretty they are now...all those flaws are gone!

Bed Is Set Up

We finally set up Jadyn's bed yesterday after we bought that long awaited twin spring box and twin mattress for her new bed. We've had her white bed frame for quite a while but we didn't have the box and mattress because my husband was looking for a tempur pedic mattress on craigslist but they get sold quickly once there's a new advertisement for it.

When he saw this ad from a man who sells high quality mattresses for a much discounted price, he didn't hesitate to buy a set of his merchandise just to keep Jadyn from sleeping with us in our bedroom. So last night was her first night to sleep in her new bed. Of course I had to sleep with her during the first hour for I doubt she will sleep in her own if I don't lie with her in the bed. It was quite a success for she did fall asleep and went slumber but then when 4 a.m came, she moved to our bed. It was ok though because her dada I guess got his much needed sleep without someone kicking him constantly.

Disney Bedding

We moved Jadyn's crib to our bedroom in preparation for the new addition to the family. We bought her a twin bed frame which is white and a set of used furniture which will require a small touch up before we can move them to her bedroom. At this point, all she has in her bedroom is the bed frame. We are still gonna buy the mattress that fits with it.

Of course, we upgrade her bed to twin size, she also needs new bedding which I purchased two days ago. It is a Disney Bedding, Kids Tinkerbell Light Up Comforter Sets. Collection includes comforter set, sheet set and decorative pillow. Comforter features touch-activated lights which I am pretty sure she will love a lot. Aside from that I also bought her a Tinkerbell Twin sheet set that includes flat sheet, fitted sheet and one standard pillowcase so she can have a matching comforter and sheet set. I am anxious for my order to arrive and set up her bed room to make it look like new. Hopefully, all her furniture will be in the same color as to her white bed.

The Lavender Room!

Our hard work paid off after seeing our baby's room finally done. It turned out to be beautiful, at least to our eyes and to some who appreciate the babyish color of the room and that makes me feel good. It even encourages me to work harder with the rest of the house that needs painting. I know for sure that once new paint is being applied, the new fresher look of rooms will come out.

So here in my blog, proudly showing you our baby's Lavender bedroom! The walls look bare as for now for we have yet to put more decors on them as well as waiting for the big photos to be framed.
