Ok, so it's about time I shared the pictures of my little guest room makeover. Let me preface by saying that I totally did it on the CHEAP. Just over $100 cheap, which is really good for me. Most of the money was spent on the bedding. Everything else was repurposed and pulled from other places in my house. I used lots and lots of spray paint too! There are still more things in the works/floating around in my brain, but I've put it on the back burner for now until I get through the holidays and finish redecorating the master bedroom (turning out beyond fantastic - I can't wait to share that with you).
I also have to give a disclaimer on the pictures. This room is pretty tiny so I had a hard time getting a snapshot of the entire room. Here you go:
Bedding:
Turquoise dresser (still debating if I think it's too bright. I might tone it down with some black stain):
Star wall:
The entire room:
Doesn't my redone hope chest look super cute at the foot of the bed? I think so too ;0) Scroll down the page to see the lovely before shot of that piece.This was a super fun room to put together. The bedding is from Target. I pulled my initial inspiration for the room from Meg Duerksen who has GREAT, funky style and takes amazing photos. I decided to go with the bright colors to counteract the blah white walls. In the opposite corner I have my upholstered rocking chair and a big blank wall.
Thanks for looking! Be back soon!

how fun and cheery! I love it! Ella has those polka dot sheets! Very happy and cute. Your guests will never leave!
I think it turned out really cute and I love the dresser. :)
Wow, your new guest room decor is a big change! I'll come visit sometime!
the Halloween costumes were so cute - the candy corn princess tutus and wands are precious. I love Carter's glasses, "scar" and scarf.
Love you. Mom Frost
Very cute--I don't think the turquoise dresser is too bring at all.
It's so very cute! Well done! I don't think the dresser is too bright....
I cannot wait to see your Master! You have a gift. :)
That is so much fun! I would love to sleep in that room...I LOVE The bright colors!! Very impressive.
Fun, cute room! I love it, I'm such a color girl. I really love the star collection - lovely. Nicely done, can't wait to see the master! Maybe you can inspire me; my master is SO boring and needs a serious facelift.
What a happy room! I love the polka dots on the bedding and the wall of stars - how did you come up with so many, so inexpensively? I am impressed! Can't wait to see your master, too!
i like the turquoise dresser...leave it!
I LOVE all the bright colors! It looks Amazing! I can't wait to see what you're doing with the Master bedroom :0). So did you use spray paint for the dresser and hope chest? If so, how many coats did it take to get a good coverage?
it all looks great, and i feel honored to have slept there myself! :) and..i say leave the dresser, it's just soo cheery! i love it.
Dad and I slept there when...
You hadn't gone wild with spray paint yet; the star collection was non-existent; the much treasured hope chest still had its 1980's look! (I wonder how come you were the only daughter that received a hope chest as a gift.) You're making that rental into a homey and inviting place for your family! Hurrah for such a good job!

holy cow--so, so cute!!! The stars are my favorite, favorite part. So much personality...they honestly do make the room a happy place. I need to get better acquainted with spray paint.
