Today's the day!!
I finally acquire to present you lot the summertime let on of our invitee bedroom.
I've been working on this room for a calendar month now, in addition to I'm excited to finally live able to part it amongst you. I repurposed most of the items inwards this room, thence I accept tons to present you!
This room has been redone 3 times directly because I'm notwithstanding learning in addition to evolving my style. Since I repurposed most of the items constitute inwards this room (see showtime let on here and 2nd let on here), it never hurts to elbow grease out novel ideas. So, inwards a few months when I'm all virtually manlike colors in addition to nighttime woods in addition to this turns into a mancave, only grin in addition to nod.
Mwuahaha! Like that volition ever happen!
Until then, here's how the novel invitee sleeping room looks today!

Until then, here's how the novel invitee sleeping room looks today!
I chose pinkish in addition to light-green equally my accent colors because I accept a major trounce on pinkish correct directly (if you lot follow me on Pinterest, you lot know this) in addition to light-green has e'er been a fave of mine. I kept the residue of the room neutral because I volition e'er deep downwards live a neutral gal. I'm only learning that I similar a piddling color thrown inwards the mix.
I realize that is a genuinely weird disceptation coming from me.

The redo of this entire room all began because of the bedding. After falling inwards dearest amongst a duvet encompass from Bedding Style, I basically tumbled downwards the room-redo-rabbit-hole in addition to decided to completely redecorate the room. It couldn't live helped.
I chose a classic ivory duvet cover, pillow shams, euro shams, in addition to a gorgeous linen bed skirt that all had the trellis blueprint embroidered inwards a soft light-green color. Trellis patterns are ane of my fave things on the planet correct now, thence naturally I kinda only desire to sit down in addition to stare at this bed.
Adding a span of my ain items genuinely pulled it all together, in addition to created only the hold off I wanted.
Remember my DIY pillows I made amongst glue? Well, I made the pinkish floral ones for this room. For less than $3 each, they're a keen means to salvage coin thence 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 solely thrifty improver to this room.
Oh no...there's so much more.
Let's start amongst the breakdown.

Let's start amongst the breakdown.
I told you. I popped tags all over this bedroom.
Remember my thrift shop chair I reupholstered only lastly week?
I chose a light-green in addition to white trellis pattern, knowing it would live the perfect piddling popular of brilliant light-green for this room.
And that ornate oval mirror? That was a thrift shop find, too. You may think it from my trip to the thrift store.
It was originally a piddling equally good gilded for this room, thence I took it downwards a notch amongst around argent Rub n Buff, which is my fave matter ever for frames in addition to such. The gilded notwithstanding peeks through, but it's a piddling to a greater extent than subtle now. I dearest gold, but wanted a softer hold off for this room.
Another matter you lot may think from my thrift shop trip
is the bird lamp situation. Remember this?
Well, those brassy piddling plane lamps got a makeover amongst my fave high gloss white spray pigment in addition to around modern foursquare lampshades ($8 each at Target). Here they are now.
They're unproblematic in addition to chic in addition to hold off keen on my novel dark side tables.
And those dark side tables?
They weren't just new, only novel to me. H5N1 friend was getting rid of them because they looked similar this:
They were totally damaged in addition to falling apart, in addition to only begging to live dumpster food. Naturally, I ran to them in addition to stuffed them inwards my car. I took them home, patched the woods amongst woods filler, in addition to spray painted both tables amongst Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint. I've never used ORB on slice of furniture before, but it created the coolest result!
(P.S. The other twenty-four hours I referred to this spray pigment casually equally ORB to Jesse in addition to I mean value he may accept passed out for a 2nd 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, in addition to I was shocked to uncovering this to live a figment of my imagination.)
It's variety of a black-brown amongst a genuinely shiny finish. It turned out to live perfect. And they hold off construct new.
Thanks, ORB.
Total investment for ii lamps in addition to ii tables: $10 total.
You tin also run across the headboard inwards the higher upward photo. I don't accept whatever earlier pictures, because I did that virtually a twelvemonth earlier I began blogging. Dangit. It was originally genuinely former in addition to woods colored. I constitute it on Craigslist for $20 in addition to painted it a soft white.
Circa 2011 B.B.
(before blogging).
I also created my ain DIY art out of an former wooden shelf inwards my laundry room that was going to live thrown away.
Seriously, it used to live a shelf.
I'm similar a hunter in addition to this solid is my buffalo.
I utilisation every slice of this animal.
I mean value it looks keen on the wall beside the bed. I also hung a sugariness identify unit of measurement picture. It's the graduation photos of my husband, his father, in addition to his grandfather. My woman bring upward inwards constabulary gave that to me later she had it beautifully framed.
One of my favorite gifts ever.
I conception to construct that pocket-sized department of wall a gallery wall of identify unit of measurement photos, but I'm notwithstanding working on that one.
Won't that hold off keen though?
Here's a sentiment of the opposite way. You tin run across my piddling white chandelier. I genuinely got that ane at Home Depot a span years ago, but I DIY'ed ane only similar it inwards our portion 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 unremarkably what happens to this invitee room virtually a calendar week later I construct clean it.
I tin experience you lot nodding inwards solidarity.
Thanks thence much for stopping by! Don't forget to pivot this post thence you'll accept these thrifty ideas when you lot acquire cook to decorate!
Of course, a large give thank you lot you to Bedding Style for providing the beautiful novel bedding. I'm absolutely smitten.
