Inspiration: Guest Bedroom

It will be a while before I am actually able to show you a completed room, but I will share the ideas I have for each room.  Hopefully sooner than later I will be able to show the results of my inspiration.  However, like I said we are starting from scratch with everything so we have a lot of work ahead of us.

  The room I feel I have the most ideas for is the guest bedroom.  I actually have an old wedding shower invitation that has served as my color inspiration. 




Walls: The walls have already been painted.  It was quite difficult for me to choose the gray paint because I was so scared it would look blue.  However, it turned out just like the light gray on the shower invitation.

Chest:  When I moved to Dallas, I took a small chest that was my Dad's when he was a child.  It was brown but I painted it white.  For this room, I want to paint it yellow.

Bedding:  I am planning on making a tufted headboard using a dark gray fabric and yellow buttons.  The quilt I like is from West Elm as are the sheets.  However, I am always on the lookout at TJ Maxx or Home Goods for something similar... and cheaper.

Accessories:  I want to add a touch of turquoise with accessories such as pillows, frames, etc.  I will also have something on the wall but have no idea what yet.
