"With Kennedy entering her final year of high school this year, Brooke knew she wanted to do something special for her daughter before she goes to college. "I really wanted to give her a space that she could truly enjoy now and be a safe spot to come back to when she heads off to college," Brooke says. Here's how she took the bedroom from builder-grade to bespoke."
""Kennedy had a bit of an eclectic style to begin with and leaned more into the boho vibe, which we really wanted to carry into her new room," Brooke explains - and color was going to be the key to enhancing that vibe. "Kennedy loves to nap (as do most teenagers) mostly because she works hard at school and her job," Brooke says, so choosing a dark, calming teal really helped make the bedroom a zen zone, as did the addition of sun-blocking curtains."
Kennedy, entering her final year of high school, received a bedroom makeover focused on creating a calming, boho-inspired space she could enjoy now and return to after college. The design emphasized dark, calming teal paint (Behr's Beta Fish) applied in two coats with an eggshell finish on walls, door backs, and trim, and sun-blocking curtains to enhance restfulness. A higher-quality paint was used to ensure coverage over builder-grade surfaces. The design prioritized Kennedy's eclectic, boho preferences and included a budget-friendly DIY bookcase to accommodate her book collection while providing functional storage and personalized style.
