It’s time for a guest room update! A few weeks ago I shared with you my plans for this guest room.
At the time, I thought that it would be a piece of cake.
However, due to supply issues and my indecision it hasn’t been as effortless as decorating a room normally is for me.
Just a reminder, this is how my room looked before.
Completed Items
So what have I checked of my list of things to do?
I painted the headboards white and set up the beds.
Remember the art prints that I fell in love with from BallardsDesign?
Well, I found them on Etsy for under $25.00.
I couldn’t be happier with them.
The bedding I ordered came in, however I’m not thrilled with it, but since I didn’t find anything in my price range that I loved I will be keeping it for now.
Curtains
With all of the things checked off my list, it was time to set up the room.
I had planed on keeping the blue and white patterned curtains that were in the room, but once the beds and dresser were in place I wasn’t so sure I liked them.
I knew with my budget that new curtains were out.
So I started looking in my stash.
The only curtains in the entire house that would work were my breakfast room curtains.
So I brought one in and hung it up to see which I liked the best.
Pillows on the Bed
My second issue came with the bed pillows.
I had these two shams set up on the bed because the navy one matches the quilt and the white one matches the bedskirt.
But I hated the empty space on either side.
It just looked off.
So I removed the navy sham and set up two 20 inch pillows behind the white one.
I loved the look.
Now I just needed to decide what fabric I wanted on those pillows.
If I went with the floral curtains this navy and white buffalo plaid would be cute.
So Would this one.
However, if I went with the navy and white curtains I would need something like this pillow to make all of the colors and patterns work.
It became clear that I needed to make a decision on my curtains.
So what did I decide to do?
I went with the floral.
If I wanted to keep the green in the room I decided that I needed the green in the curtains to tie it all together.
The existing curtain rod had seen better days, so I ordered this one with new curtain rings.
So I still have a ways to go to get my guest room done.
However, I now have deadline.
My sisters, Beep and my niece are all coming in 2 weeks.
Time to get it all pulled together.
Another guest room update or rather a guest room reveal will be happening soon!
Until next time…
