best colors for kitchens: sconces

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;">I love creating rooms for young people</span>. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Children have boundless imaginations and interviewing them for a room redesign is a lesson in possibilities. Whether tweens, teens or preschoolers, they have no fear of color and they know exactly what they love. Nine year old Hailey wanted purple, hot pink, butterflies and fairies. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Oh, and her other favorite - turquoise. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Her mother was a little worried about that combination. </div><div style="text-align: center;">She feared that Hailey would grow out of a theme room and </div><div style="text-align: center;">wanted something that would grow up with her daughter. <img alt="" border="0" height="423" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338238356755337122" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhMjxvT9ENtaC6bVJ2HrG9UVtkRzfx_b6xIJamtcg_oFzBfYgXCo9OVkwGXWKbun8ASyEquqIipjEpkxc1UFxde11z2LH2LbYu7RMMdGwzL5_1zcoTCB5j6Tjrm383MCFqI_jTJ87-F1xM/s640/Davis+-+Haileys+Room.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /> Here is Hailey's new room. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Fit for a beautiful princess, it is sophisticated enough to grow with her with minmal changes, </div><div style="text-align: center;">and has all the elements she wanted in a room of her own. </div><div style="text-align: center;">We started with the walls. A soft lavender with a touch of grey. </div><div style="text-align: center;">More subdued than Hailey first wanted. </div><div style="text-align: center;">I convinced her to 'wait and see' on the wall color. </div><div style="text-align: center;">If she didn't like the finished product, walls were easy to paint over. </div><div style="text-align: center;">What I wanted was a wall that complimented the room and didn't overpower it. <img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338198538944801810" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhYK8-DoH-YwW9WbR8-mcq9YQEW-hTFao7nyIBNfVdycf6U1xAuyqm9OSwhJ_r4kRlLEv0kypjWdGXZQXUpLlbwAOtRbak1NK0-qfZhn9_TMZDVW2q2gAuxKzntDsgYQzirQ6ZHXjrHoWo/s320/lavender+walls.jpg" style="cursor: hand; display: block; height: 228px; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; width: 217px;" />Next came the fabrics.

A scalloped bottom added a feminine touch and the puffy posies - a fun little project I did myself - added a touch of whimsy and youth. (They are removable for when she is a little older down the road). </div><div style="text-align: center;">The room had a large window in an alcove that was a natural spot to create a window seat. We built it and framed it with draperies.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiioWSw9OwYhoOTWF_GcoLtgtpiWqh1bZdHTeu7f9EzNOWnln2z661KnbLSr4vtEuoOx3tmrsUo6Rg8OdHgXKa63f37PYS-jNbaOuBvSkpdcFJpUQWdaP9JFZ5JGfZ-kYxFhjjHj7dY1Pw/s1600-h/valance+detail.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="400" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338198331786331378" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiioWSw9OwYhoOTWF_GcoLtgtpiWqh1bZdHTeu7f9EzNOWnln2z661KnbLSr4vtEuoOx3tmrsUo6Rg8OdHgXKa63f37PYS-jNbaOuBvSkpdcFJpUQWdaP9JFZ5JGfZ-kYxFhjjHj7dY1Pw/s400/valance+detail.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="305" /></a>I added floor length drapes to the scalloped cornice valance there. On the inside edge I repeated the scallop detail. We flanked the window seat in bookshelves. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg7byEcVJOHubsBOFbEdXnCcxiubU_CW7k_AOP3Lo2Ix5px7lqQidlyPWsXs9IoI_Qe_8KagO10ZcEMM9dBK90_4wiC6ba033dyVFSqSBCDic962t9KyZqgIKghMMvmXoxE3a2RIEe4kA/s1600-h/pompom+poof.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197335918766098" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgg7byEcVJOHubsBOFbEdXnCcxiubU_CW7k_AOP3Lo2Ix5px7lqQidlyPWsXs9IoI_Qe_8KagO10ZcEMM9dBK90_4wiC6ba033dyVFSqSBCDic962t9KyZqgIKghMMvmXoxE3a2RIEe4kA/s640/pompom+poof.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="411" /></a>Note the detail of trim and larger check fabric on the bottom of the curtain. Next to the curtain is a pompom pouf - one of Haileys favorite things in her room. Hot pink pompoms in varying sizes were glued to the lid of this soft pink ottoman, creating a very girlish and very soft seat. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ZUex-OO-2Jww5JOiVoD4MRFF2iGCEQpY1UbERfrK1yf5vceJtEyWpuuBBXO767PiBphfWNOYjchS_sFeyIFZ8VSyG-6OMutUBQl7pKwgAr4nYNqEvrt23SzLsSNMibgxNGSzhCSHYjE/s1600-h/Davis+-+Haileys+room+-+window+seat.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="424" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197335749085762" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg_ZUex-OO-2Jww5JOiVoD4MRFF2iGCEQpY1UbERfrK1yf5vceJtEyWpuuBBXO767PiBphfWNOYjchS_sFeyIFZ8VSyG-6OMutUBQl7pKwgAr4nYNqEvrt23SzLsSNMibgxNGSzhCSHYjE/s640/Davis+-+Haileys+room+-+window+seat.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a> Here is the finished window seat. I wanted it to be inviting, so covered it in a soft hot pink cushion and filled it with fabulous decorative pillows. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF7o1j6JnvTIbHDOyTMa1Xr4OfmlkUVB4Q26ZzVzBVWcJWevchdOpODbK2B_lvhNHNY6dlX6ZG7hiGOAH08Zx0wWoAqwZq9S2n_7ex997yo1YRqwnXlfm58g6Usk8XRsMXB4HjojFJGh8/s1600-h/IMG_2803.JPG"><img alt="" border="0" height="509" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197332686693890" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgF7o1j6JnvTIbHDOyTMa1Xr4OfmlkUVB4Q26ZzVzBVWcJWevchdOpODbK2B_lvhNHNY6dlX6ZG7hiGOAH08Zx0wWoAqwZq9S2n_7ex997yo1YRqwnXlfm58g6Usk8XRsMXB4HjojFJGh8/s640/IMG_2803.JPG" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a>The window seat is a wonderful focal point and draws you into the room. Adjacent to the room, a private bathroom gets the same valance treatment and a shower curtain in the same fabrics as the bedroom. Above the doorway is a series of photos we had taken of Hailey at Blue Moon studio in Laguna Niguel. The studio provided wings, dress and floral wreath for her head, transforming her into a fairy. The photos were magical! Not only does she have a room fit for a fairy princess, she IS the fairy princess. Each time she looks at these photographs she will see how beautiful she really is. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgofi6yB7cHuDb0IRAf_2JLMTiT5B3qDSLHtcMvS1JWD2pXCHlVwUnNV_UYoKnkpaAeYlKDYOrxY0L2HRL0OJAuCjP4BPTVIftWTxJxR24_qgKWZ_7cisK-LRQxrSan_Q1tNGQc-r6vmS8/s1600-h/fairydoll.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="417" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338197326196798946" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgofi6yB7cHuDb0IRAf_2JLMTiT5B3qDSLHtcMvS1JWD2pXCHlVwUnNV_UYoKnkpaAeYlKDYOrxY0L2HRL0OJAuCjP4BPTVIftWTxJxR24_qgKWZ_7cisK-LRQxrSan_Q1tNGQc-r6vmS8/s640/fairydoll.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a> Here is a close-up detail of the window seat pillows and a fairy doll I created from a pattern. Oh, and don't forget the turquoise our princess requested. We didn't forget the turquoise - I created a butterfly pillow in turquoise minky fabric and trimmed out some of the bed pillows in the same color. </div><div style="text-align: center;">The fairy doll has butterfly wings and pointy toes - and hair the same color as my little client. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghDIQMNUWWb7aYA3-YbTTQMGhAY481N07cXboDPl8DlJwPtZXNkgvp_KrHNwp6zyYrxxJkaPcz2O6-t6HXBXVJGTZv_oUUp0zEdpWyGNXnAfGzRB91y5RHr4tOomeas07cBBDJ4qAjhd0/s1600-h/chandelier.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338196155780236930" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghDIQMNUWWb7aYA3-YbTTQMGhAY481N07cXboDPl8DlJwPtZXNkgvp_KrHNwp6zyYrxxJkaPcz2O6-t6HXBXVJGTZv_oUUp0zEdpWyGNXnAfGzRB91y5RHr4tOomeas07cBBDJ4qAjhd0/s1600/chandelier.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" /></a> The crowning touch for the window seat is this chic little chandelier, complete with pink crystal beads, clear droplets and soft pink shades. </div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiWMO_MiG5l9HHp29Y7u_E6yp4zEvH91KlVEFgSwCE21GB9xijxHdX0vyz-fThqaEJHrrxzInZDWQ5VqRFzCpOHQzmK0m-sF-wAuLfe5AUqcvrMGSKMyqGyQwfkVCb1CP2J5kRxrcNWWo/s1600-h/sconces.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338196149982898946" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgiWMO_MiG5l9HHp29Y7u_E6yp4zEvH91KlVEFgSwCE21GB9xijxHdX0vyz-fThqaEJHrrxzInZDWQ5VqRFzCpOHQzmK0m-sF-wAuLfe5AUqcvrMGSKMyqGyQwfkVCb1CP2J5kRxrcNWWo/s640/sconces.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="582" /></a> We added wall sconces to match at each side of the bed and draped the bed curtains around them. <br /><br /><div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTedAMeayq25N6SP042ynZKuNG3OUHzr6EpdfMGFXszmzsSL1OAIfnKbON10s81SKOwG4JFZBW1LjvHRWnW4CKktUt6xle_K3mKJWZOCp4rJKcIybVy6niXVdwueg7LkkBdK5IHd-4e_M/s1600-h/headboard.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="445" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338196150932496562" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTedAMeayq25N6SP042ynZKuNG3OUHzr6EpdfMGFXszmzsSL1OAIfnKbON10s81SKOwG4JFZBW1LjvHRWnW4CKktUt6xle_K3mKJWZOCp4rJKcIybVy6niXVdwueg7LkkBdK5IHd-4e_M/s640/headboard.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a>Our growing girl needed a bigger bed. We removed the twin size bed from the room and brought in a queen sized mattress and box spring, elevated with risers to allow for possible storage underneath. We turned the bed sideways because of space concerns and so that the bed didn't completely block the beautiful new window seat. I created and upholstered the headboard, in deep purple corduroy. The darker color adds a little drama, a little sophistication and a little depth to the room. We added a plush chenile shaggy area rug in the same color at the foot of the bed. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCbP7GWsCgOf6K6_4y8h0965Sc7P14LhyphenhyphenxQA9u70T9uZXlKbzAvcdaxraiGUXKntuwjTL-5hWcr7GgeE8Vy_M4wtpKlDosQ3s7bvJDTwIIc91cBsdXcZjVFlxdTK_4JPXuNOMBZs0SAKM/s1600-h/cornice+detail.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="457" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338196144367187362" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCbP7GWsCgOf6K6_4y8h0965Sc7P14LhyphenhyphenxQA9u70T9uZXlKbzAvcdaxraiGUXKntuwjTL-5hWcr7GgeE8Vy_M4wtpKlDosQ3s7bvJDTwIIc91cBsdXcZjVFlxdTK_4JPXuNOMBZs0SAKM/s640/cornice+detail.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="640" /></a>The crowning touch of the room is the bed cornice and draperies. My carpenter created the cornice from my drawings and specifications. Painted white and trimmed with decorative molding, it holds the beautiful draperies and valance that frames the bed.

The base is a soup tureen, minus the lid, and the pedestal is a scalloped bowl, turned upside down and epoxied to the tureen to give it height and the importance it needed. The glass dome fits it perfectly. <br /><br /><div><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt9PumBVf6Hv3JFh9PIFVVgW7WlOSPowTa6KgbNMwc319Z5Y7Pk2fmyBerRHi_VyHPW91Wt8RYwvcGeSv1lPe4cgg7jWnvDnSIJ7AKdnRA7NkUTBRmgVx3ItMIWG80e0xGnCVLnObii84/s1600-h/justfairydome2.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" height="640" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5338195048552504082" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjt9PumBVf6Hv3JFh9PIFVVgW7WlOSPowTa6KgbNMwc319Z5Y7Pk2fmyBerRHi_VyHPW91Wt8RYwvcGeSv1lPe4cgg7jWnvDnSIJ7AKdnRA7NkUTBRmgVx3ItMIWG80e0xGnCVLnObii84/s640/justfairydome2.jpg" style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center;" width="568" /></a>I love to add a personal touch to a room, and in Haileys room I was able to add several things that I created.
