What was one of the biggest challenges you faced in putting together this room? To ensure that my child's safety receives the right importance in a whimsical room that also provides for all the functionality she will need from age 3 to her pre teens. The other challenge was to follow a theme and to ensure all functional aspects of a bed, study, secret hideout, play area, storage for all her stuff and wardrobe are all taken care of and still leaving space for her to share with her friends.

I weep at the site of that much pink and princess crap. but oh my word to be a little girl that must be the most magical place in the entire world! my niece would lose it over this space!
Wow! What a room! The woodworking looks beautiful.
I'm curious though, how the family envisioned how the room would grow with their daughter. I'm in the process of redoing my 2.5 year old son's room and want the core peices in the room to last until he's a teen, at least.
That girl seems to love it, therefore I love it.
my daughters would love to have a bedroom like this!
OMG! I was an ABSOLUTE "I Dream of Jeannie" fanatic as a little girl - I would've loved to have this room!!!! Very lucky little girl - it's adorable.
my girls would LOVE this room. i'm not a fan of the pink and purple but i think it is a fun idea.
I'm sure that room will last her for quite a few years (and also make her THE friends house to visit)! And when she outgrows the princess theme... I'm sure her creative parents will find a way to transform this room into something that she'll love then too!
Wow, I'm awe. I would never have let my child pick that room, but I'm sure she LOVES it and will always remember her awesome room. Kudos to the parents.
I agree that this is something she will always remember. That brown wood grain is throwing me off though. Maybe if it was painted white with the pink and purple it would make it brighter. However it looks extremely well made and if I had the means to do something like for my 3 year old I would totally go for it!
The room and the girls are sooooo cute!! I love that the parents went with Neha's idea. She is an adorable child!!
this is beautiful!
If the bed was a wee bit bigger I would say that the room could "grow" into teenage years easily just by removing overly castly trim and repainting it with more adult colors. Maybe the bed isn't actually as small as it looks.
What a beatutiful room realy Ilove this idea. my small girl likes that dora kitchen toya very nice. very good kept up!
Too late for me to get to vote....but you sure would've gotten mine. This is an incredible room for your lovely daughter.
Thank you for all your lovely comments about Neha's room! Neha was ecstatic that she got such good comments about her room.
Neha's dad.
What a lucky little girl to have her dream room! Oh I bet her friends are so very jealous! Now Neha has set a precedent on fancy princess rooms, all of her friends parents must hate you (in a good way of course!)
Congratulations Neha!
Neha's room is truly what a young girl would dream of. What is also amazing the fact the entire room seems to be custom made and not just a collection of beautiful items put together. Its looks aesthetic and functional at the same time.
Hats of to her parents to have thought of it and converting her fantasy to reality.
congratulations !

Cool room that all little girls would dare to dream.
