Guest Room Concept & Before Pics

This is a room I NEVER share. You see, this room is a replica of my room when I was single. My house back then was a lot more girly, with a lot more color. Prepare yourself.

BEFORE: BEFORE:Y’all are probably thinking – “Uhh, why am I following this girl??” Say no more. I get it. The good news – My style has changed a lot since my single days  and I’m hoping to change this bedroom to reflect my new style and the rest of our house. I feel like I can transform this room without breaking the bank by swapping out a few items  – It is a guest room, afterall. Here are all the items I’m thinking:

I learned when designing our living room – An inexpensive way to transform a room is through new throw pillows. We have a neutral color palette in the living room – I added a touch of blue / indigo and more modern look just by changing up our throw pillows. Easy peasey! In the guest room, I plan on doing the same.

Here’s what I’ve come up with for the space (as told by a 3 X 5 notecard).

I envision the room being slightly eclectic. I plan on keeping the duvet and adding white to breakup all the color – White sheets, curtains, and a bedskirt. We also don’t have much brass throughout the house so I’m thinking about adding a touch of brass in this room, since brass has made a comeback!

My favorite piece? This pillow (hands down). When I came across this watercolor throw pillow it was gameover, you guys. The entire room came together in my mind when I saw this beaut. I mean, just look at it!

I am so excited to share the progress with y’all! I will be documenting the makeover on the blog, as well as on Instagram! I’d love for you to follow along!
