Here it is, my *finished* guest room.
Yes, I had big plans for this room.
First you would be greeted by a lovely homemade art project.
Check.
We used scrapbook paper as a mat, then glued starfish and favorite rocks on top.
Then the bedding would go from blah-blah-brown to wham-bam-pow pink, blue and green.
Check.
The wall behind the bed would get a fun confetti polka dot treatment.
Check.
The closet doors would have a cute dress form decal on them.
Check.
Check.
In my fantasy, I made curtains, learned how to table-scape, had a guest bathroom stocked full of essential items...
Um... No check?
Instead, I spent a lovely summer with my kids, and just freshened up a bit.
The bathroom did get a new runner and a starfish accent.
See how it was a bit bland before?
Plus I still have a few more weeks until our next house guest!
Please stop by and visit these lovely ladies who also stepped outside of their comfort zones, drank some wine, and changed things up in their own homes.

I really like the white frames against the dark wall. Such a welcoming room your guests won't want to leave!

Yea, another almost finished project! I am so encouraged by the real story. And all the updates look so great that I'm sure no one will notice the things that are still waiting to be done. Fun use of color!
Umm... gorgeous! What a fun (but relaxing) spot for your guests.

I love a happy, perky guest room like this. You are such a pro for actually having a real reveal. :)
Great wall color and wonderful colors in this fun room! I just love that you have some great touches and details that show your fun style!
Looks like you rocked it to me! If anyone notices those short curtains, they shouldn't be invited back!
Love the white mirror and the fun decals and those cute dipped feet!
