We recently moved into a townhouse that we really love! We have been making small decor changes here and there. Our one BIG change has been to the guest room. Since we are renting we weren't planning on painting any of the rooms, but the green in this room was starting to kind of drive me CRAZY. Plus the paint job was not so great and there were patches of beige paint in a few spots. Not a fan. So I decided to paint. We chose a BEAUTIFUL color that we thought was versatile. That is, one that would work for a guest room, and in the future, a little person's room. I've always loved to paint so I was looking forward to this project. However, turns out that painting after working all day, four days in a row, is really not a good time. Regardless, with the company of my "Friends" and my husband I got it done!
So here's what it looked like before:

And finally, the finished product complete with all of our mismatch-we-already-had stuff:

| Lights on |

| Lights off - Natural Light |

| Lights on |
We're still trying to decide on exactly how we want the furniture arranged. We just put it this way for the time being. Once we put everything exactly where we want it, we'll put stuff up on the walls and ta-da guest room will be done.

Yay for blog posts! Not so yay for long and tiresome painting projects! I definitely think it looks much better in yellow though ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe guest room looks fantastic! It is definitely more of a reflection of you and Justin. I mean, the only way that you could improve the look of this room is to add maybe some lavender accents? You know, it would really complete the look...
ReplyDeleteI say move the green table further between the two curtains. That way, your guests can take advantage of the natural light while doing their make up or catching up on their correspondence.
The way I see it, the furniture will be constantly in transition given what the guest room might be used for in the future. :) So, the furniture looks good where it is at for the moment.
Oh Jay.. you're so funny.
