Be our guest - 1 of 2

I am constantly nesting! My husband thinks I have ADD when it comes to home decor and can't stand it if I come back with throw pillows. But hey! I love home decor, and I especially love a good DIY project. I'd say just about every month, season or holiday I am always trying to freshen up our home. We are currently renting a three bedroom home in Concord, CA. This picture is one of our guest rooms which we call "my room," basically, it's my closet! More recently I have turned it into my office, check out my next post to see how dramatically this space has changed!

As you may have noticed, there was no rhyme or reason with this room before I refreshed it. This room primarily had a hodgepodge of furniture and decor I have collected throughout college and post-college. Now that we are married and started adulting, we decided to give this room some much-needed TLC. It also gave me a chance to show off my personality and create a space that inspires me every day! 

I tried to do this room on a budget! I didn't spend more than $200 to transform this room completely.  

Here's a list of items and links to where I purchased them. (A few items are no longer available). 
Duvet Cover 
Sheets 
Curtain Rod 
Pillows
Curtains
Vase
Chalkpaint 
Wax
Brushes

These curtains were purchased to hide the hideous blinds! To allow the natural light to shine through and make the room feel more open, I chose a lighter color for the curtains. 

I love a good piece of furniture that has been refurbished. I transformed my drabby grey dresser into an antique looking piece.

A lot of TLC went into this project, as well as, a few sips of whiskey ;). There is something very cathartic about using power tools. I had such a great Saturday, sanding, painting and screwing on the handles. It is so rewarding to see the finished product (pictured below). 

Come back and see the complete room transformation of our guest room! Until next time babes.
