Remember when I asked you 100 years ago what room should be next in my ultimate take over? You picked bedroom, I picked procrastinate. Awesome.
Well, I'm back and ready to show you the brand new, amazingly comfortable bedroom that I'm proud to call my own. And, yes it's still the size of a shoe box. :) I'm okay with that, we'll now refer to it as cozy.
It started with this dresser makeover. Beat up, white washed, sanded, glazed. Love. Now when I bump it with the door, because of the size of the.. cozy.. room, it's okay-- it looks like it's supposed to be there.
The walls got a lovely coat of Natural Choice by Sherwin Williams (Color matched and mixed at Home Depot) It really, REALLY opened up the space. A million times better than the blue. Billion.
Next up, windows! Since the room is 10 feet away from my sidewalk I added two sets of blinds to keep from freaks looking in my window.
See.. Caught them.
Better put the shades down.
*Sigh*
Much better.
:)
New kissing pleat bedding and cream ticking.
Side tables filled with junk. I'm missing a lamp so I substituted some candles and empty frames to fill the space. Speaking of side tables I'd love some chippy old worn trunks but I've found zip, zero, nada here in my town. Boo.
There's a couple more things that I plan on adding to the room-- in due time.
The trunk for the end of the bed, we have zero storage in this house and this will be PERFECT.
Frames for the art that I already purchased.
Another matching lamp.
A headboard.
A headboard.
Throw pillows, red will most definitely not be my accent color, however I couldn't NOT put something there! :)
Ready for the before and after?
Me too.
(Before.)
(After.)
Ta-da! :)
Loves it!
Next up, where I got everything! See you then!

Well, well! Positivly beeeautiful! I just bought a white bedspread for my room and am loving the "sleeping in a puffy whit cloud" look. Your room looks heavenly. :)
Your bedroom looks great now! (though I did like the before blue paint - I have that color in my bedroom) Glad you got those blinds to keep the freaks out! LOL!

Looks very resortish, love it! What a difference color can make. Makes me want to get rid of my brown walls. Enjoy it!
That looks great! Come to my house, please!
I loves it too! Looks like a boutique hotel room.

It was pretty before and the ta da is fresh and lovely too. Now time to relax and enjoy it. Right? I know that never seems to happen. :)

It looks fantastic! It's so fresh and comfy. I think we have the EXACT same bedding. I love it.
I really, really love your duvet! I can't wait to hear where you got it.
Wow, looks great! The room does look bigger! Love that duvet cover.
Oh I love it! It is so pretty and very calm.
Hey! Your handmade bags... How about using that idea with pillows? Wrap some of your old throw pillows! Those flowers would look so cool on a pillow! Love your bedroom,it really does look soooo soothing and relaxing!
I love the room it looks fantastic! It's amazing how much are tastes are alike. I just posted my master bedroom makeover on Monday. We both have a white bedcover(I love yours with the buttons). We have the same blinds and lamp, and we both have "cozy" small rooms. Your room looks very relaxing.
It's so pretty! Great job! We have our bed against a window as a faux headboard and WE LOVE IT!
very pretty. I love the softer look. The window coverings are to die for! Fabulous!
Gorgeous. Makes me want curl up on that bed and take a nap, would you mind?
Yay!!! I love it! :) The bedding is just divine. :)
Love that bedding!! And the new shades...I'm a huge white and natural girl. :) shaunna
It looks great. I love the shades and how you doubled them. I love the look of the bamboo, but I too fear for creeps (even those who are photoshopped).
I also really like your lamp.
What an amazing makeover! It's gorgeous!
Oh my gosh it's gorgeous!!! Is that duvet the one from West Elm? I REALLY love it!! Great redo!
Loved your bedspread! Linda! The room was very nice with the curtains of fiber ...
Ohhh, it looks so pretty!!! And you are so stinkin funny! Love the pics of your creepers peepers. LOL If you didn't live so darn far I'd hire you to re-do my bedroom. lol xoxo
WOW!!! The room does look so much more roomier and so calming. That color you picked is lovely. We are just about to re-do our master bedroom, and you are a total inspiration. Great job!!!! Enjoy your beautiful new space.
It looks fabulous! I laughed out loud at your freaks :).
Looks great..where did you get the bedding from?
Wow. It looks so fresh now.

Beautiful makeover. I love how fresh, cool and inviting it looks. Just beautiful. Hugs, Marty
clean, simple and soothing. I love it!
It looks so calming. I love the new wall color. I like to keep rooms airy and light too. Makes the space look more spacious as well. Great bedroom redo!!
I love it! It's so light and airy! It honestly looks like a relaxing hotel room. You did a great job!!
Hahah- the rif raf on your lawn had me laughing. :) I didn't realize that bamboo blinds were so see-through. I like the idea of adding the second blind for privacy. And you KNOW I love your bedding! The mattress ticking makes me swoon! Awesome job girlfriend!!
I still can't sleep because of the people in your yard. Thanks for that.
:)
Your room looks FAB. Loves it.
It looks so nice and relaxing!!!
First time visiting your blog. I too have the smallest bedroom. You have inspired me to do something about it. Love it would like another photos to see what your curtains are like.
Opps just saw you had a post on the windows will go look.
My bedroom is close to road and we recently had a peeping Tom so really need to do something about it.
(Peeping Tom was caught thank goodness)
Wow! It looks like a fancy B & B or a little cottage get a way...so relaxing and cozy (cozy in a good way!). I'm really enjoying your blog!

Beautiful! I love white rooms!
Nice work...I love it! My bedroom was green, and I just re-did it in white. What a difference color...or lack thereof...can make! Thanks for sharing!!
Followed your link from Shabby Nest.... it's beautiful! Great work!
great job! It looks so fresh and bright now
oh my! it's so preaceful. please please please tell me where to find that bedding. Mr. Man just painted our master bedroom (blue!) and installed a new ceiling fan. next up is buying/building the new furniture. your bedding is exactly what i've envisioned for my grown up bed from the very start.
Stopping by from The Shabby Nest. I really like your room makeover. The bed linens look so comfy and pretty! The double blinds are a great solution for privacy and light control.
{sorry about the deleted comment, I made an error}
Hi! It looks great - would you mind sharing where the bed linens came from? Their very cute, simple. Thank you! Cailan

You dud a wonderful job on the makeover, I recently started my bedroom makeover as well...and i love the difference white bedding can make in a room.
I meant "did a great job", guess I should turn on a light if I plan on typing in the dark, lol.
I LOVE the detail of the hair on the silhouette and the coral pillow! You're fabulous!
Would you share where you found the pillow?
LOVE the white. LOVE.
Oh and that trunk you are looking for its on clearance at target right now in the outdoor furniture section for $30!! Serious go quick its FABULOUS!
Hi Rachelle. You're bedroom makeover is so pretty and bright. Painting made a huge different. I can't help but notice how beautiful and green your yard looks. I don't know where you live but it's looks cool and soothing outside (says the girl in humid Florida).
Hugs...Tracy
Thats funny, I have the same bed set/comforter you do in your before shots, and I have been seeing the one you have now on a lot of blogs. I would love to get that kind but I don't think my husband would go for it :( too girly for him!
I love that bedding....where did you get it? I've been in search of something like it!!!
Love it! It looks refreshing!
Very classy and relaxing....a great room to come home to!
Very beautiful make-over. I just re-did my bedroom. Thank you for sharing.
I love your new look. Very relaxing place chill. It is coming together beautifully!
Looks amazing and very comfortable!
I Love It!! Where is the storage ottoman from? That would come in handy at my storage-challenged house! Rosa
