It’s been almost a month since my last update about the queen guest bedroom updates {the original ‘before’ photos are found here}. This weekend, I managed to finish painting the remaining walls, we hung the sunburst mirror, and I also finished sewing the pillows in the fabric I had selected {plus made an extra one in Celerie Kemble’s Betwist in Bear}. To read more on the board and batten wall treatment, go here.
I think I’ll hold off on doing any additional full room shots until the room is finalized. But here’s a little sneak peak for those that don’t follow me on Instagram:
I used the same tutorial for all of these pillows that I used here. Pillows from front to back are: 12×24 Schumacher Celerie Kemble Betwixt in Bear; 22×22 Schumacher Kelmscott Manor; 26×26 Schumacher Kelly Wearstler Imperial Trellis.
Paint window trim
Paint baseboards
- Paint door casings and doors
Board and batten wall behind bed{completed here}
- Find headboard {the DIY version no longer works with the board & batten}
Add seating to room
- Find a larger bedside lamp {since the room can only accommodate one nightstand}
Order roman shades
Find drapes
Find fabric for throw pillows
Make throw pillows
- Change out all the outlets/light switches to white
- New chandelier to replace the boob light
Paint walls
Hang sunburst mirror
It looks great! I can’t wait to see the whole room. Can you come help me decorate my house?
By the way, if you ever find a good deal of the Schumacher Avebury Floral Vine fabric let me know. I am looking for 1/2 yard of it for a large lumbar pillow for my bedroom.
Definitely! Please let me know if you find it too! I have been wanting it for far to long but can’t justify full price 🙂
The room really looks great! You must be thrilled. Any guests of yours is lucky!
