Mermaid Room Makeover
9
items In the middle of last year, my daughter started asking for her room to transition to something a little more grown-up, while keeping some of her favorite items. She wanted it to be mermaid theme. I knew I was going to be able to repurpose a few items by myself, while others would need to be purchased. The focal point (and main cost) of the room was going to be the most amazing mermaid wall paper. I spent months planning the various DIY projects and watching the wallpaper for a sale to pop-up. In this list, you will find everything used to create the room of a mermaid lover's dreams.

Great “starter” vanity. Plenty of storage. Fairly easy to put together. The lighting is spectacular!
Audryanna Vanity
This tall corner shelf holds lots of keepsakes and the lighting is beautiful. Several colors to choose from. We typically leave it on purple.
Arieona Modern Display Corner Bookcase with Colorful LED Light
This chair is gorgeous, comfortable, and very sturdy. It is also easy to clean (very important for a 7 year old with access to makeup).

Decor
This wallpaper is incredible. One of the best purchases that I have ever made. It comes in tons of different colors. Excellent quality. Despite shipping from Sweden to the US, arrived in one week. And it was fairly easy to put up. I could not recommend Happy Wall more!
Summer Mermaid Glitter Scales 11 wallpaper - Happywall
I have included before and after photos. I got sample size wall paint from Lowes and used them to repurpose a few things in the room. This link isn't the exact crown that we have but it's similar (and a little smaller).
Princess Crown Wood Wall Decor
We LOVE using Legos as decor. This set does not disappoint. We got the lightset designed for the set as well.
LEGO Disney The Little Mermaid Royal Clamshell Collectible Model 43225
I hand painted the letters (using the same paint from the crown) adding scales to two and glued the shells on after. These were repurposed from the previous theme of butterfly/elephant.
9" White MDF Whimsy Letter by Make Market®
Simple white framed full length mirror with shells added. This is the wall paint (including a sample of a darker version we tried out when selecting wall color) and the paints from the crown and letters).
13.5" x 49.5" Framed Door Mirror - Room Essentials™
The chandelier that ties it all together. No pressure.
