I have recently given Miss 9’s bedroom a make over. We moved into this house when I was pregnant with Miss 9, when I found out I was having a girl I couldn’t help myself and painted a pink feature wall in her bedroom. So really I presumed pink was going to be her favourite colour. I presumed wrong, her favourite colour from the very beginning was yellow, however now she loves the Tiffany blue/mint colour. I have wanted to paint the wall to resemble the colour she loves for a while now, but I just haven’t found the time.
When Adairs showed me their new linen range and asked if I would be interested in making over one of the kids bedrooms with their new range and share the experience on their blog I jumped at the chance. My Miss 9 fell in love with the Sprinkles range and by simply adding in some mint accessories from their collection she now has a beautiful room decorated with her favourite colour.
Please pop on over to the Adairs blog so you can read all about the makeover and why I started the blog. Read more here.
I purchased the ice-cream lamp from here, but you can also pick them up in store at Adairs. Aren’t the little dolls so cute.
Instead of painting her wall, we added these confetti dot wall decals. They are made of vinyl so easy to remove and won’t mark the wall.
I wanted to buy her some new wall art. But when I mentioned to Miss 9 that I will replace the fairy art with something new she started to cry. I painted this for her when she was a toddler and I didn’t realise how much she cherishes it, so it stayed!
She has bottled the water the tooth fairy left her last time she visited. The tooth fairy left behind some coins in a cup sprinkled with glitter which made the water turn pink.
All her handbags are stored behind her door on a hanger that we purchased a few months ago from The Reject Shop.
I opted to get a double sized quilt cover as Miss 9 stores all her dolls and doll toys under her bed. The longer cover hides all these so nobody can see the boxes under her bed.
She absolutely loves her new room, all this colour has really brightened up her room and I can’t help but smile every time I walk into it.

LOVE!!! I actually have blog post for Monday about how much i would love to do icecream room. Many of these items are featured. Great minds!! Well done 🙂
It’s just so colourful!! Miss 11 is eyeing off the watermelon and pineapple range, I would have so much fun helping her redecroate her bedroom as I am loving watermelons at the moment
Oh i love pineapples & watermelon… i did post other week showing ranges of both. I asked which team readers were on. I wish i had lots of rooms to decorate.. kids rooms are so much fun!
Wow Kat, you truly have outdone yourself, it looks fantastic! I have total (when I was 9) bedroom envy! I will have to head to Adairs to shop for my little girl…she’s 3 & a half and still in a cot! Well her cot turns into a ‘bed’ but it still looks like a cot to me! Thanks for the fantastic tips! P.s your fairy painting is precious!
LOL I do too Jenni, I was never able to chose the colour and linens for my bedroom when younger so I am really open to my kids picking what they want and feeling comfortable in their bedroom and making it theirs. I love all this colour and I think the polka dot wall just finishes it all off beautifully.
Hi, I love the bed!! where did you get it from?
I could be wrong but it looks like it’s from ‘Incy Interors’
*interiors
The bed is also from Adairs. It can only be brought in store and not online.
Hi Katrina,
I am thinking of getting the pink version of the bed that you have for your daughter. I wanted to know what you thought of the build quality of the bed i.e slat strength, quality of the paint on the metal etc. Ta.
Hi Rebecca, The bed is from Adairs. It can only be purchased in store and not online though.
Oh this looks gorgeous Katrina! I love the colour scheme and the gorgeous pops of pastel colours. That ice cream lamp is seriously fun too. Great makeover! x
Thank you Vanessa.:) Colourful and happy.:)
Love it! Had to laugh – painted my daughter’s room pink when we moved in and she was 8 months old – now nearly 7 and has declared she wants it green! I am hoping to hold out until after Christmas though 🙂 Think I will start by getting her to choose bed linen, too. Looks lovely Kat!
Ooh thank you Kate! Yes it is beautiful.:) Great idea with picking the linen first, she may just change her mind on what colour she wants to paint her wall. Also trying to match the linen might b harder if you paint first.
Looks so fresh and bright – gorgeous!
Thank you Kez! Miss 9 is thrilled to pieces with her new room.:)
Love the room – just beautiful. Just wondering the purpose of the wire basket under the pink table? and where the pink table came from. Thank you 🙂
Oops – just saw tables are from Adairs x
Hi Leese, Yes the little pink table is from Adairs and the white basket is for her to put things in ( she likes to put her slippers in there so on a winters morning they are nice and close).
LOVE IT Kat. Well done!
What an awesome space for a special little lady!

Ooh thank you Claire! Yes Miss 9’s room is just so colourful, it is a really happy place.:)
Love the desk! Where isn’t from?
Sorry, “is” not “isn’t” 🙂
Hi Tammy, It is so cute isn’t it! The white desk is from Bambino Home. They have a huge selection, i fully recommend them.:)
This room looks amazing and I think that you should become a decorator! Keep going!
Hi there, just wondering if you were able to let me know where you got your daughters I-pod cube docking station? My daughter, also 9 is working on a similar room for herself! We are off to buy the shelving and lamp on Thursday! 🙂
Hi Debbie, I got the ipod docking station at Big W a long time ago. Unfortunately i don’t think they sell them anymore as i have looked because i wanted another one for my lounge room. If you come across them somewhere else please let me know.:)
So amazing post! I love the pictures! I have five-year-old daughter and I want to renovate her room. I got some very cool ideas from this article! Thanks!
Fantastic, Pamela! I just love the colour dots on her wall. it adds a lot of colour and gives off a happy vibe.:)
Some great ideas thankyou!
your very welcome Bec 😉
Can I ask where her bed is from? It’s beautiful!
