Finally – New Bedroom Reveal!
28 Jul
Hi Everyone!! So remember a million years ago when I promised to show you our bedroom re-do? I finally took some photos of our new space!
First Up – Before Pictures:
This is how the space looked when I moved in. It was nice, but definitely more of a boy’s room (and note how my bedside table used to be a TV dinner tray)
And here is how our bedroom looks now:
Of course Raleigh snuck into some of the pics:
Close up of the wall paper:
Potted orchids are from Home Goods:
Our bedside lamps are also from Home Goods:
We picked up this little candle holder in China Town in San Francisco:
I got this mirrored jewelry box at Target. This is where I store my engagement ring when I go to bed:
And there you have it! I cannot take full credit for any of it, it was 100% a team effort. We painted the walls (‘agreeable gray’ from Sherwin Williams) and wallpapered the wall behind the headboard as an accent. Neither of us had put up wallpaper before, but the process went pretty smoothly. I actually prefer wallpapering to paiting, but I’m sure it is more difficult to do a whole room vs. one wall.
All of the accesories came from Target, TJ Maxx or Home Goods. We also did some DIY artwork for the wall. Above the dresser are three framed black & white photos. One of a California beach, one of the St. Louis arch and finally a scene of New York City. I also did another painting for a wall across from the bed. Stay tuned for pictures of the painting and more of the Raleigh photo-shoot!
Wow Leah it looks great! I’m very impressed, but not surprised :) I wish I could paint the walls at our place. So drab :( well hopefully I’ll get to see your new room live and in person soon!!
Nicely done!!!
Oo la la! Looks WONDERFUL!
Wow that looks great! Very impressive.
