DIY Decorating Bedrooms amongst Secondhand Finds: The Guest Bedroom Reveal

Today's the day!!

I finally acquire to demonstrate yous the summertime break of our invitee bedroom. 

I've been working on this room for a calendar month now, together with I'm excited to finally last able to part it amongst you. I repurposed most of the items inward this room, thence I accept tons to demonstrate you!

This room has been redone iii times immediately because I'm notwithstanding learning together with evolving my style. Since I repurposed most of the items institute inward this room (see showtime break here and 2nd break here), it never hurts to endeavor out novel ideas. So, inward a few months when I'm all most manlike colors together with night woods together with this turns into a mancave, simply smiling together with nod.
Mwuahaha!  Like that volition ever happen! 

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

 I chose pinkish together with light-green equally my accent colors because I accept a major musical rhythm on pinkish correct immediately (if yous follow me on Pinterest, yous know this) together with light-green has e'er been a fave of mine. I kept the residual of the room neutral because I volition e'er deep downward last a neutral gal. I'm simply learning that I similar a piddling color thrown inward the mix. 

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

The redo of this entire room all began because of the bedding. After falling inward honey amongst a duvet comprehend from Bedding Style, I basically tumbled downward the room-redo-rabbit-hole together with decided to completely redecorate the room. It couldn't last helped. 

I chose a classic ivory duvet cover, pillow shams, euro shams, together with a gorgeous linen bed skirt that all had the trellis blueprint embroidered inward a soft light-green color. Trellis patterns are i of my fave things on the planet correct now, thence naturally I kinda simply desire to sit down together with stare at this bed.

Adding a pair of my ain items truly pulled it all together, together with created simply the expect 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 smashing agency to relieve coin thence yous tin splurge elsewhere. I also decided that my 'P' pillow belonged inward here, too. He truly gets around.

The pillows weren't the alone thrifty improver to this room. 
Oh no...there's so much more. 
Let's start amongst the breakdown.

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

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

I chose a light-green together with white trellis pattern, knowing it would last 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 retrieve it from my trip to the thrift store.

It was originally a piddling likewise gilt for this room, thence I took it downward a notch amongst simply about silvery Rub n Buff, which is my fave affair ever for frames together with such. The gilt notwithstanding peeks through, but it's a piddling to a greater extent than subtle now. I honey gold, but wanted a softer expect for this room.

Another affair yous may retrieve from my thrift shop trip

 is the bird lamp situation. Remember this?

Well, those brassy piddling aeroplane lamps got a makeover amongst my fave high gloss white spray pigment together with simply about modern foursquare lampshades ($8 each at Target). Here they are now.

They're uncomplicated together with chic together with expect smashing on my novel dark side tables.

And those dark side tables? 

They weren't just new, simply novel to me. H5N1 friend was getting rid of them because they looked similar this:

They were totally damaged together with falling apart, together with simply begging to last dumpster food. Naturally, I ran to them together with stuffed them inward my car. I took them home, patched the woods amongst woods filler, together with 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 solar daytime I referred to this spray pigment casually equally ORB to Jesse together with 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, together with I was shocked to respect this to last a figment of my imagination.)

 It's sort of a black-brown amongst a truly shiny finish. It turned out to last perfect. And they expect construct new.

Thanks, ORB.

Total investment for two lamps together with two tables: $10 total.

You tin also run into the headboard inward the higher upwards photo. I don't accept whatever earlier pictures, because I did that most a twelvemonth earlier I began blogging. Dangit. It was originally truly former together with woods colored. I institute it on Craigslist for $20 together with painted it a soft white. 

Circa 2011 B.B. 

(before blogging).

I also created my ain DIY art out of an former wooden shelf inward my laundry room that was going to last thrown away.

Seriously, it used to last a shelf.

I'm similar a hunter together with this solid is my buffalo. 

I exercise every slice of this animal.

I intend it looks smashing on the wall beside the bed. I also hung a sweetness identify unit of measurement picture. It's the graduation photos of my husband, his father, together with his grandfather. My woman rear inward constabulary gave that to me later she had it beautifully framed. 

 One of my favorite gifts ever.

I conception to construct that modest department of wall a gallery wall of identify unit of measurement photos, but I'm notwithstanding working on that one.

Won't that expect smashing though?

Here's a sentiment of the opposite way. You tin run into my piddling white chandelier. I truly got that i at Home Depot a pair years ago, but I DIY'ed i simply similar it inward our component subdivision 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 most a calendar week later I construct clean it. 

I tin experience yous nodding inward solidarity.

Thanks thence much for stopping by! Don't forget to pivot this post thence you'll accept these thrifty ideas when yous acquire create to decorate!
