Guest Bedroom Makeover

The master guest room is filled with 
yellow, blue, green and painted white
 furniture. Here are the after photos:

The chippy green picnic basket was found at the

 Canton, TX Antiques market. It's topped with a

 Longaberger lidded cake basket and a straw hat.

All the fabrics including liners, table topper, 

drapery panels, and bedding are from Longaberger.

The lamp is filled with shells collected long 

ago by daughter Kim on beach vacations.

A small bench holds a large collection of

hand crocheted thrifty throws.

Larry built this small ladder for me. 

I painted it blue and use it to

 hang a few vintage quilts. 

The quilts are topped with pillowcases hand trimmed

 with heart crochet and patchwork squares.

Those are topped with monogrammed and

 a  few vintage handkerchiefs. 

I left the antique mirror above the dresser

 in it's original wood. I'm still deciding if I want

 to paint that white too.

We added  beadboard to the lower wall and 

painted it yellow. ( Newborn by Glidden)

The wall above is washed in leftover blue paint.

The king-size bed fits on the window wall.

The two night tables on each side of the bed

have a pair of Portmeirion lamps. 

I found them on clearance at Marshall's years ago.  

A small Portmeirion clock, a beverage basket, 

a crystal water caraffe and glass and a few books

 were also added. A stack of Longaberger 

baskets on the side is used for extra storage.

An antique wicker standing sewing basket.

A needlepoint covered brick is used for a door stop.

These were very popular to make years ago. 

This one was my mother-in-law's.

I found this old, very heavy, solid wrought iron

 headboard on Craigslist for $20. 

I just sprayed it white. 

Another throw is draped at the foot of the bed. 

This one was found for $4 and matched the 

room colors perfectly.

Here's the dresser before we painted it white.

We found the three pieces on Craigslist for $65.

After painting.

The two night tables before.

 Painting everything white.

We removed the hardware and 

left that the dark bronze color.

Room before.

The old furniture in the room.

This is the set we took to Texas and painted black for
 our granddaughter's bedroom. You can see that HERE.

Bed and Breakfast. . . you make both! *

Cheers!
