i know i have been m.i.a. for the past few days, but this bedroom took a lot more energy and time than i had expected. my days and nights were spent in this little room and i definitely couldn’t have pulled it off without the help of my family. i’m extremely happy to say the makeover is finally complete. the room has made a full turn around from where it began, can you believe it use to look like
this? although i’m overjoyed with how it turned out, i can’t say there weren’t a few little bumps and jolts along the way. the rug i had initially planned for the room was unexpectedly backordered and it took some creative thinking on how to find one similar in time for the big reveal. also, the original color of the dresser was planned to be different and i had found out only few days before it had been discontinued. however, i ended up liking the new color of the dresser in the room even better than the first. the original layout i had in mind looked better, there, in my head, and needed some rearranging on the floor. also, i think when you buy paint, there should be a guide that lets you know just how much wall space it will cover. the home depot definitely saw a lot of me in the past week and i always feel a little out of place there, sort of a let’s play the one who doesn’t belong. anyway, in the end everything worked out better than expected and i’m in love with this funky rooms unique vibe. later this week, i will include a little post on where i got some of my absolute favorite little treasures, which just to name a few include: the oversized dream catcher above the bed, the little elephant and bird dangly hangings, and the stuffed owl perched comfortably on that oh-so-cozy bed. all these little details are always my favorite part of redoing a room. as a side note, it wasn’t until the space was completed that i realized just how many different animals i had included somewhere throughout: birds, foxes, elephants, deer, lions, butterflies, the whole lot. below are
just a few pictures of the newly revamped bedroom, enjoy!
