Bedroom - from Blah to Beautiful on a budget

The challenge in this space was three-fold. We needed to keep all the wood furniture for desperately needed closet and storage space, had limited opportunity to change position of the furniture due to minimal open wall space and make it all beautiful on a tight budget.

The inspiration for the room was a central California coast June day - all socked in with marine layer and peaceful. A dark, stormy blue was chosen for the walls and a piece of driftwood for the look of the furniture. Soft whites and taupes bring in the clouds and sand with just a bit of sparkle here and there like the glint of sun off the ocean.

Tricks were used to repurpose old furniture and curtains to give them new life and bring the look together.

Over the next few weeks we'll break out the individual projects, and how we did them.

But, for now, check out the BEFORE and AFTER pics.
