You guys! I am beyond excited today is finally here (a day early)! I’ve teamed up with hayneedle to bring you a full bedroom makeover in our guest bedroom and it’s now everything I hoped it could be!
But first, you may recall the room originally looked like this, shortly after we moved in:
It really lacked any personality at all and was in desperate need of character and some fresh paint.
After some rushed design decisions, the space was updated, but it never really felt like it belonged in our home. The room was a bit cold, stark and modern for my taste, so I knew an overhaul was in order.
After drafting a design board and making the plans come to life, here is the space today! It’s the perfect serene blue guest bedroom with a subtle beachy-vibe that all of our visitors can enjoy for years to come!
You do not want to miss any of the details on this makeover!
You can see all the photos and read all of the details behind this room makeover over on the hayneedle blog (where you can also shop my full style board)! I’ll also be back later this week to walk you through my thought process on the design, as I know many of you have asked how to even begin a room makeover. I’ll offer tips on how you can feel confident in creating a space you’ve always dreamed of, as well!
I want to thank the team over at hayneedle for partnering with me on this project and for wholeheartedly supporting all of my design decisions! This is by far one of my most favorite projects to date!

I love it! It has a welcoming vibe- very cool!

I kept scrolling back and forth between the before and the after and let me say, the changes that you made make a dramatic difference in the whole feel of the room! I’m particularly eyeing the new light fixture so I’m going to hop on over to Hayneedle to see if it’s available there!
SO happy to see this post today! I’ve been considering large gray stripes on my landing’s walls, but wasn’t sure how it would go with all the navy I have in my house! This post came at a perfect time! And the blue in that throw blanket is perfection! Off to find those shelves… gorgeouss!!
It is SO lovely, Sarah! When can I come stay? 😉
Love the light fixture and the shades!
Where are the window shades from?
Such a beautiful and refreshing makeover. I am itching to redo my house -it’s long overdue. Thanks so much for the inspiration. I’m heading over to Hayneedle to check out all the details.
The room is lovely! I love how the new headboard softens that area of the room, and the hints of blue are truly serene! AND those mirrors on either side of the bed, SWOON! You did a wonderful job on this room makeover!
It turned out BEAUTIFUL Sarah! I love the blue touches paired with the gray and driftwood toned furniture.
I’m obsessed with that blue! And those shelves are amazing 🙂
Beautifully done room! Love all the details and the color scheme.
What a beautiful room! I am pinning this for later.
Swooning over the indigo accents and that headboard! Oh my! Beautiful makeover!
Seriously beautiful! That bed and the whole ensemble…swoon and the shelves are styled perfectly! XO
The room looks gorgeous! It turned out amazing. I love the pieces you chose—especially that bookshelf!
Ohhh my goodness, Sarah! So completely GORGEOUS!!! I think this might be my favorite space of yours ever. Loving all of the textures and fabrics you chose! Amazing job, friend!
Beautiful Sarah! Love the colors and that shelf is perfect. ~Sonya
Sarah, this is just stunning! Off to read more about it at Hayneedle!
Absolutely gorgeous!! Shared shared shared and heading over to the hayneedle blog now!!
Oh my! What a transformation! Everything from the painted walls to the light fixtures and the art; everything is simply stunning.
Going over to Hayneedle to fill my shopping cart soon!
Thanks for your inspiration.
It’s AMAZING! The stripes are awesome – I love it all!
The room is gorgeous! Love it! In fact I went on to Hayneedle to order a few items and had the WORST experience with them. It was my first time ordering with them but I loved that you had the mood board already set up, so ordered with them. They messed my order up and when I called to correct it (after receiving only one of the two items ordered) they would not honor the coupon to order an additional sham plus wanted to charge me additional shipping. Too bad. Still love the idea of your mood boards, such a great idea.
Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that. I had a great experience, so I’ll be sure to pass along your feedback to my contact at hayneedle. And thank you for the kind words on my design!
Sarah – the bedroom turned out beautifully. You have given me so many ideas for my own home ….thank you! Can you tell me where you found your bamboo shades from and what color & brand they are? I have been trying to find the perfect ones for my own home. Thank you!
Thank you so much! I actually got the shades at Lowe’s right off the rack. I don’t know the brand (I think it was maybe Levelor). They only had three colors and this was the mid-tone (the other was a more birch-like color and the other was really dark). They were really affordable and work well! I got the ones with the blackout liner. I hope that helps!
I’m SO in love with this room reveal! It’s exactly the sort of look I want for my master bedroom! Unfortunately I rent so I can’t paint walls which sucks. But I can certainly work with accessories and furniture! Shared this on my Facebook and pinning!! 🙂 x
This is truly beautiful…amazing transformation!
BEAUTIFUL… love the striped walls and all the gorgeous details you added. Thanks for the inspiration Sarah!

The bedframe that you used, is it one that is on Hayneedle and you modified it?
Yes, that is the exact one. It actually comes with several lengths of posts so you can easily modify to get the look you want. I added the caps on the footboard since the room isn’t overly large. But I still have other lengths I can use that I just store under the bed!
Well that’s super smart! Did the caps come with the bed?
Yes, they did!
