Thank goodness my daughter has a preppy side like her mama and loves Lilly Pulitzer prints. For her eighth birthday I decided to retire her Pottery Barn Kids Penelope bedding and migrate to a Lilly lovers dream. I came across several Lilly Pulitzer bedding collections at Garnet Hill and scored them 25% off during a sale. Pictured is the Lulu Multi print fabric. I believe they have several different prints available each year until they sell out. I quickly learned that shopping the “sale of the day section” on Garnet Hill’s site each day, that I wood come across coordinating sheets for a steal! Hence, why I purchased the orange polka dot sheets.

I then sanded with an electric sander and painted on primer + paint in one. The pink color is Sherwin Williams SW 6851 Hibiscus Duration semi-gloss. Sign up for SW perks program to get $15 off $75 purchase or $10 off $50. They frequently have sales around the holiday weekends for 40% off paints and stains. I used a Wagnor Flexio 590 spray gun to apply the paint. My favorite gold spray paint is Rust-Oleum. I love the gold color of this paint better than any others and used it for the mirror and birdcage ceiling light. I used 4 cans of Rust-Oleum white semi-gloss primer + paint spray paint for the metal bed frame.
