Bedroom Makeover

Have you ever stumbled upon a piece of furniture and just knew it was meant to be?
That happened to my husband and I right after Christmas. We have always had a nice bedroom, but everything was just put together, nothing matched, the bed frame was just unfinished wood (he never finished it) so when we found this king bed frame on clearance, we had to buy it. Which then caused a chain reaction of a matching dresser, end tables, bedding and room decor.... BOOM! Brand new room! Im just glad the existing paint color worked!

and before you say anything, the window behind the bed... its off center. It will become a piano window this summer! 

I found great decor at Hobby Lobby!

This door walks right out to our patio and hot tub, its amazing! Even in the dead of winter!

I must say, I was excited to get a big girl bed! This is the first matching bedroom set I have ever had, what we had before was always good enough it work, but now our room is much more put together! 

We also put netflix in here, I may never leave! 

Closet turned office

January has been the month of purging for me! I have cleaned out so many spaces in my home and gotten rid of a ton of stuff! It feels great and should have been done years ago!! This weekend the kids and I tackled a closet. This area used to be an entry way to the home. Once we added on, the closet became a catch all. 

So we emptied it out and I made an office for my hubby!! 

The kids helped remove old wall paper. And we peeped the walls for paint!

Removing the wall paper made me so glad we hung it properly! It was so easy! 

The space is quite small so I wanted to keep it neutral and functional!

This mirror was glued to the wall and I didn't even want to attempt removing it for fear of a giant hole in the wall. I painted it with chalkboard paint and trimmed it out with vintage rulers! Perfect for the construction office! 

Here's how it came together:

We built the desk from plywood! It will be perfect for the computer and doing paperwork. 

We made this bench form an old door. Perfect below the window for reading! 

I love the space! It adds so much to this part of our home!! 

I hope this leaves you feeling inspired! You don't need a ton of space to create a perfect little office!!

Another un-planned remodel

Clearly this is just how I roll. I buy something and it inspires a complete room makeover! 

The culprit: 

This adorable blue box. How cute for my island in my red kitchen. Right? Right! 

The longer that box sat on the island, the more I was over the red. Sounds like a long time, it was about 27 hours. 

So off to Home Depot I went! And the hubby came home to this: 

In the time I decided I was over the red, I also decided I was over the table and chairs. And I have always hated the faux wood trim and door. So we painted the trim, bought a new door, and a new dining set! 

All because of a $12 wooden box! I am so glad I bought that box! 

And then I made this clock. That's a entirely different post! More to come on that!
