Decorating Bedrooms amongst Secondhand Finds: The Guest Bedroom Reveal

Today's the day!!

I finally acquire to demo you lot the summertime expose of our invitee bedroom. 

I've been working on this room for a calendar month now, too I'm excited to finally locomote able to portion it alongside you. I repurposed most of the items inwards this room, therefore I accept tons to demo you!

This room has been redone 3 times straight off because I'm yet learning too evolving my style. Since I repurposed most of the items flora inwards this room (see commencement expose here and 2nd expose here), it never hurts to endeavor out novel ideas. So, inwards a few months when I'm all nearly manlike colors too nighttime forest too this turns into a mancave, but smiling too nod.
Mwuahaha!  Like that volition ever happen! 

Until then, here's how the novel invitee sleeping accommodation looks today!

 I chose pinkish too greenish equally my accent colors because I accept a major rhythm out on pinkish correct straight off (if you lot follow me on Pinterest, you lot know this) too greenish has ever been a fave of mine. I kept the residue of the room neutral because I volition ever deep downward locomote a neutral gal. I'm but learning that I similar a lilliputian color thrown inwards the mix. 

I realize that is a genuinely weird disputation coming from me. 

The redo of this entire room all began because of the bedding. After falling inwards dearest alongside a duvet comprehend from Bedding Style, I basically tumbled downward the room-redo-rabbit-hole too decided to completely redecorate the room. It couldn't locomote helped. 

I chose a classic ivory duvet cover, pillow shams, euro shams, too a gorgeous linen bed skirt that all had the trellis blueprint embroidered inwards a soft greenish color. Trellis patterns are i of my fave things on the planet correct now, therefore naturally I kinda but desire to sit down too stare at this bed.

Adding a yoke of my ain items genuinely pulled it all together, too created but the await I wanted.

Remember my DIY pillows I made alongside glue? Well, I made the pinkish floral ones for this room. For less than $3 each, they're a bang-up agency to salve coin therefore you lot tin splurge elsewhere. I also decided that my 'P' pillow belonged inwards here, too. He genuinely gets around.

The pillows weren't the exclusively thrifty add-on to this room. 
Oh no...there's so much more. 
Let's start alongside the breakdown.

I told you. I popped tags all over this bedroom.

Remember my thrift shop chair I reupholstered but in conclusion week?

I chose a greenish too white trellis pattern, knowing it would locomote the perfect lilliputian popular of vivid greenish for this room.

And that ornate oval mirror? That was a thrift shop find, too. You may recollect it from my trip to the thrift store.

It was originally a lilliputian equally good gilt for this room, therefore I took it downward a notch alongside unopen to silverish Rub n Buff, which is my fave matter ever for frames too such. The gilt yet peeks through, but it's a lilliputian to a greater extent than subtle now. I dearest gold, but wanted a softer await for this room.

Another matter you lot may recollect from my thrift shop trip

 is the bird lamp situation. Remember this?

Well, those brassy lilliputian plane lamps got a makeover alongside my fave high gloss white spray pigment too unopen to modern foursquare lampshades ($8 each at Target). Here they are now.

They're unproblematic too chic too await bang-up on my novel dark side tables.

And those dark side tables? 

They weren't precisely new, but novel to me. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 friend was getting rid of them because they looked similar this:

They were totally damaged too falling apart, too but begging to locomote dumpster food. Naturally, I ran to them too stuffed them inwards my car. I took them home, patched the forest alongside forest filler, too spray painted both tables alongside Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint. I've never used ORB on article of furniture before, but it created the coolest result! 

(P.S. The other solar daytime I referred to this spray pigment casually equally ORB to Jesse too I intend he may accept passed out for a minute from laughter. Even though I didn't know what that magical acronym stood for mere months ago, I similar to assume that everyone shares my spray pigment obsession, too I was shocked to detect this to locomote a figment of my imagination.)

 It's form of a black-brown alongside a genuinely shiny finish. It turned out to locomote perfect. And they await build new.

Thanks, ORB.

Total investment for ii lamps too ii tables: $10 total.

You tin also run into the headboard inwards the inwards a higher identify photo. I don't accept whatsoever earlier pictures, because I did that nearly a twelvemonth earlier I began blogging. Dangit. It was originally genuinely sometime too forest colored. I flora it on Craigslist for $20 too painted it a soft white. 

Circa 2011 B.B. 

(before blogging).

I also created my ain DIY art out of an sometime wooden shelf inwards my laundry room that was going to locomote thrown away.

Seriously, it used to locomote a shelf.

I'm similar a hunter too this work solid is my buffalo. 

I exercise every slice of this animal.

I intend it looks bang-up on the wall beside the bed. I also hung a sweetness menage unit of measurement picture. It's the graduation photos of my husband, his father, too his grandfather. My woman raise inwards constabulary gave that to me afterwards she had it beautifully framed. 

 One of my favorite gifts ever.

I innovation to build that pocket-size department of wall a gallery wall of menage unit of measurement photos, but I'm yet working on that one.

Won't that await bang-up though?

Here's a persuasion of the opposite way. You tin run into my lilliputian white chandelier. I genuinely got that i at Home Depot a yoke years ago, but I DIY'ed i but similar it inwards our role if you're looking for a thriftier version. 

So, that's the novel invitee bedroom.

A relaxing retreat for our summertime guests...or a identify for me to hoard random stuff...which is ordinarily what happens to this invitee room nearly a calendar week afterwards I build clean it. 

I tin experience you lot nodding inwards solidarity.

Thanks therefore much for stopping by! Don't forget to pivot this post therefore you'll accept these thrifty ideas when you lot acquire ready to decorate!

Of course, a large give thank you lot you to Bedding Style for providing the beautiful novel bedding. I'm absolutely smitten.
