This room is a combination of French style and teenage sass. The bed is covered in linen toile bedding that I made (but you knew that already, didn’t you?) I guess I should have shown you what the room looked like when I first walked in here.
I sometimes think I should put a warning sign on the door, “Dragons Beyond this Point” because they could be hiding about any where with the room in its usual messy state.
I know this is HER ROOM, and I let her do it her way except on the days I photograph it. Things were shoved in drawers, closets, and dare I say under the bed, so that you could actually see the room.
I do love this room. As you can see I had the doors painted a darker color than the walls. To see the paint colors, click here.

The toile bedding you made is wonderful. Love that iron bed- great details. The lamps with the chocolate ribbon are so cute and they look great with that mirror. I really like the soothing wall color and how the doors look. What a wonderful room for a teen.
Wow, love the Toile, such a beautiful room!
Beautiful!
You are so talented.
Love it.

Beautiful room, your did a wonderful job on the bedding. Looks like it would be a very cozy little place to hide away.
Big fan of Toile ! I have a guest room of Red Toile that I sewed myself. Made curtains and pillows, canopy all to match. It has a bedroom set from my grandparents. Bed is a King . I love it and my guests enjoy it. They always call it the princess room. My other guest room is all plain in off white. King size too.
Great idea on the darker painted doors. I will steal that if you don’t mind!? I can just imagine what is under that bed. I had three teenage girls at one point.
Anita,
Oh~h, la ~ la!!!
Gorgeous Frenchy Teen Bedroom, dear friend!!!
(Thanks for hiding all the stuff…in the drawers and under the bed! wink! wink!)
Love, LOVE, L O VE that Agreeable Gray!!!
We chose the same hue for our Guest Room here on the Prairie!!!
The Pussywillow hue is a great accent choice with the Agreeable Gray!!!
Now, I’m sure your daughter would love for all of us to go away and she can return to dream, perhaps to sleep in her lovely ToileBedroom!!!
Thank you for allowing us to have a glimpse inside!!!
Fondly,
Pat
I absolutely love it… there is such a great balance of dark and light color. (My favorite way to decorate) I LOVE the bedding too!
What a beautiful…soothing room… fit for anyone…not just a teen.
Wow…love your style.

I absolutely love toile. I have loved it from when I was a kid and had no idea what it was-till, and including, today. The room is just gorgeous, Anita. I love the serenity of the gray- xo Diana
Very pretty and just right for a young lady. Was the bedspread difficult to make? And did you share how you did it on a previous blog? Thank you, Cathy K.
I haven’t shown how I did it, but that is a good idea. Not difficult at all, but I sew a lot, so maybe I’m not a good judge of that.
Beautiful colour combination. Luv the toile…
Hugs, Gee
Beautiful “home”!
Isn’t it neat how our likes and dislikes change? Makes life fun! I never cared much for grey but now have it in a couple rooms.
Thanks for inspiration……………love your blog.

Oh Anita…the room is so beautiful!!! I am madly in love with the bedding! Such a gorgeous bedroom!
Very pretty!
You had me at ‘Toile’. I did my first toile bedroom as a new bride in 1974 and have some toile somewhere, in every house since. I find it restful, easy on the eye and always stylish.
I love how sweet and yet sophisticated her room is. Again, you hit a home run with the soothing color scheme! I am toying with the idea of painting my interior doors black but am a bit afraid. The gray you choose is just enough to make a difference and not too dark. Beautiful !
WOW Anita, what a lucky girl to have such a beautiful room. Toile on of my favorite things!!!

Hi Anita,
I really love this beautiful room…but then I love the entire house…wow…I have toile fabric and have been wondering how to use it for my bedroom. I like what you did for a bedspread!…and would you consider doing a tutorial?
Thanks a million! Diane
Yes Diane, that is a fabulous idea!!
I second that about a bedspread tutorial!!! Pllleeeaaaassssseeeee! 🙂
Lovely room. On my tablet, the color of the toile is gray with a blue/green field. Is that right?
Yes Pamela, that is pretty close to what it is.
What a beautiful room, lucky girl! I love the toile bedding that you MADE!!! You are so darn talented. Love the lamps with the bows too. The doors look great!
Hi Anita!!!
The bedroom looks amazing!!!!
I read your, “About Me” page and was immensely encouraged by what you are all about!!!!
Your daughters are so very cute in the pictures!!! I love following Blogs in “Blogland.” And I can say

Oh Anita this room is gorgeous!!! I’m such a sucker for toile and I love this so, so much!
Just found your blog and love your work. Would you consider adding a OLDER and a NEXT button to your posts for those of us who are having a hard time figuring how to maneuver easily from one post to another? Your work is beautiful and I’d love to go back and look at all your older posts.
Love the bedspread! I am mad for toille. Would you please do a tutorial?
Love your daughter’s Toile bedroom! Can you please tell me where you got the iron bed and also which fabric company makes the toile and where did you buy it. LOVE your blog…everything about it! Thanks!
Want to make me a toile bedspread? Just kidding. You created a wonderful space for your daughter. She may not appreciate it now, but just wait. Your time is coming for validation as a mom and a decorator.
