Hi Everyone!
Welcome to the third and final room reveal of the Feel Good Flash Makeover series with Emily Henderson and Target. So far I’ve shared with you the spaces we created for the twins and Devin, and today I’m sharing the room we created for my niece, Ariyah.
Ariyah is the oldest at 12 years old and she’s also the only girl. She’s been looking forward to having her room decorated since the day they moved into their home so I felt the auntie pressure with this one. I really really wanted to get it right and make sure she had a space she loved and could enjoy for years to come. Here’s a look at Ariyah’s room before…..
My primary design goal for her room was to give her a space that a tweenage girl would love to grow into through her teenage years. I wanted it to feel sophisticated yet fun and I wanted her to be able to personalize it as she gets older. I know how much of a refuge a bedroom is to a teenager so I really wanted her to have one she loves. It was also important that we include a desk because of distance learning. When I asked her if there was anything she really wanted to see in her room she said her favorite colors are sky blue and neon yellow. Sooooo auntie said “challenge accepted”! Here’s what her room looks like now…
I love love love the color story in here. The deep teal velvet curtains look incredible against the sky blue we painted on the walls, ceiling and baseboards. The second I saw the chartreuse bedding I knew we HAD to have them in this space. It gives us the look and feel of neon, which made Ariyah very very happy. I also really love that the chartreuse is carried over in the curtains with the fun tassel detail as well.
When it came to decorating for the holidays we decided on a simple winter wonderland theme and Ariyah chose her favorite sky blue with silver and white accents.

I’m so so proud of how these rooms all came together and I’m so so happy that my sister and the kids love their spaces. They are all so different and unique to their individual tastes and personalities, and it’s my greatest honor to be able to share the gift of design with them. Having a space that is functional, beautiful and personal can have such a powerful effect on your day to day and I believe that should be fostered at an early age. It’s so fun to go to their house and see them all enjoying their rooms. I’m really looking forward to transitioning them out of holiday decor and into their everyday look.
Thank you so much again to Emily Henderson and Target for making all of this possible. We are forever grateful. And thank YOU for all the love and excitement over then as well. I’ve got much more design goodness from my sister’s house to share with you in the coming weeks so stay tuned. Until next time friends….

How beautiful and cheery!! What a wonderful Christmas gift for your niece!!!
Lindsay says
I absolutely love this room! I am shocked at how much the curtains really make it for me – that tassle detail is perfect. I also think the desk placement is so smart, because it functions as a night stand too. Great job, Shavonda!
Amy says
Looks great! I would have never thought neon yellow and sky blue could work well together but you pulled it off! I love the risks you took in each room and just love how they turned out for your niece and nephews.
Arli says
A room almost as beautiful as your niece. So happy the Target and Emily Henderson contributed to these room makeovers for a very very deserving family. The love you put into it, Shavonda, clearly shows. Merry Christmas!
