Hi Friends!
It is the Final Week of….. 6 Week One Room Challenge – Makeover a room/space in 6 weeks. Time to show you the results.
Spring 2017 – ONE ROOM CHALLENGE hosted by Linda at Calling It Home. Thank you Linda for hosting this fun event each Spring and Fall.
The challenges are always fun and at the same time can really kick your butt in gear.
No putting off painting…….no waiting 2 or 3 weeks to buy your accessories…..From the 1st week to the 6th it is go, go, go.
That is one of the reasons I like joining the challenges…. it makes me get busy and also keeps me motivated to make it in time for the deadline.
In case you are just now stopping by, I decided to makeover our Guest Bedroom.
I wanted to create a room that would be welcoming and comfortable for our guest
Here is a reminder of the bedroom when we started.
To say the room was challenged in the decor department would be an understatement of the year.
Yep, pretty depressing. Not inviting at all. Dark colors and the furniture was just blah.
My Mission: Create an attractive room that our guest would feel welcome, comfortable & enjoy.

First up was a new bed and mattress.
I decided to paint the furniture, night stands & dresser.
I had an old vintage side chair that I was storing in the attic and I painted it white.
So let’s take a look at the new Guest Bedroom
NEW BED & BEDDING
Like most bedrooms, the bed is the main piece of furniture and should be the focal point.
This Black Iron bed is sturdy, beautiful and goes with my farmhouse theme.
Lots of natural light for the reading nook area. In the early morning, there is direct sun up to about 10 a.m.
This is a wonderful spot to relax and read.
The Sherwin-Williams Emerald paint in the color China Doll went on beautifully.
And I really like that the Emerald line is a paint and primer in one, which can save a step of priming separately and has stain-blocking technology & is stain and spot resistant which means the paint will keep looking great for years to come.
The color China Doll lightened up the room just as I hoped it would.
Painting the furniture was by far the most time consuming and difficult part of the room decorating.
Sleep tight pillow from Oh Susannah is one of my favorite pillows for this room. I wonderfully soft fabric, zip pillow cover 18 x 18.
Oh Susannah has lots of styles to choose from.

What a beautiful and serene guest room! I love that bed and reading nook. Congrats on a job well done, Bon!
Hi Tee…..Thank you for stopping by.
How luvly!!!! Everything just seem to exude relaxation and serenity. ☺
Thank you Gee……I appreciate you coming by.
How luvly Bon Bon. Everything just exude a feel of relaxation and serenity. I especially luv the sign above the bed!
I actually like the chair by the window (as opposed to the built-in) – it looks really comfy 🙂
Hi Nicole…..the chair really is comfortable. I think built in look so great but like you mentioned not as comfy. I do have another area in the room the chair could go, so if I do go with a built-in at some point I could move the chair. Thanks for coming by.
Such an inviting and beautiful room, friend! I’m sure your guests will love it! That bed is so gorgeous!
Hi Kendra………thank you. I can’t wait until our guest come by for a visit and see the change. I think they will be happy! I know I would like the change from the before. Ha! Thanks for stoppin by!
A beautiful ORC makeover! I totally want to grab that chunky woven pillow and take it home with me, you did a great job! 🙂
Bon Bon is gorgeous!!! Beautiful set up and so inviting.
Inviting, check. Cozy, check. Beautiful, check. So well done! Such a cute sign above the bed and the fan is a perfect idea too! Every guest room needs a working fan. I’ve been so many places and wished I had one. Love it ALL!
Your bedroom turned out so pretty! What a lovely place to relax!
What a pretty room. Your guests are very lucky! Great job.
Nicely done! I think I’d spend the day reading in the chair in the corner!! Thanks for sharing on the Pleasures of the NW’s DIY party!
Your transformation looks fab! It’s so bright and fresh. I agree, Challenges do make you get your butt in gear lol Enjoy you space!
