One of my favorite places to decorate is the bedroom. One of the spare bedrooms in our home which is also our guest room, was in need of a change, but I didn't want to spend a lot of money. Ok, truth be told, my hubby didn't want me to spend a lot of money, because he knows how fast I can do that!
Anyhow, the room was originally painted a pale blue, and looked pretty terrible with the trim color. So first things first, we needed to paint.
I decided to go with Ventana (11-25) by Pratt & Lambert. I thought it went well with the trim and had some nice undertones that went perfectly the pretty blue & white bedding I already had.
Then I needed a couple of night tables and purchased 2 of the Birkeland night tables from Ikea for $129 each.
I also purchased 2 table lamps at Ikea for $49.99 each.
Then I made a quick trip to Home Sense to find a few finishing touches. I found a very Restoration Hardware looking mirror for $50 which was a bit too grey for what I needed, so I just rubbed a bit of a brown stain on it and it actually turned out pretty close to the color I wanted.
I also picked up a small linen tuffted chair, a peice of art and a small side table all for under $300. I already had a floor lamp and another framed picture, so that was it. Here is the finished room.
Have a great day!!
