I don’t love for the nightstands to be on the rug (that is my personal preference). You typically want the rug in a bedroom to run horizontal with the bed and come out past the bed at least a couple feet (that depends on your room size). When I planning out their bedroom I noticed that the rug they had was way too small. He only needed one can of paint for all four pieces of furniture. The paint he used was Benjamin Moore ADVANCE Interior Paint- Semi-Gloss (793) in white. But also saved them a lot of money! He used a paint brush to apply the paint. It took him about 15 hours total and 3 coats of paint. My friend did paint all this dark furniture to a bight white. It makes the room flow and make more sense. Even asking a friend to come over and asking them “do you see any other way I can re-arrange this room?” We moved the nightstands too. Sometimes just looking at your room in a new way can make a world of difference. The large dresser was cutting into the window and felt too big and heavy where it was. I also suggested moving the furniture around. They are not lined, but their bedroom is on the second floor. We have them in our home and I love how much texture and warmth they add to any room. We did change all of the white wood blinds to THESE whitewash cordless bamboo shades. And having a nice room makes you want to keep it clean! They had too many that they didn’t wear and it was spilling over everything. They went through and donated a lot of their clothes, after the fact. My friend did say that she would recommend decluttering before starting a project. I loved the idea of not reupholstering it but working with the pop of pink! I made sure to bring back that pink into the bedding. For instance my friends had a pink chair that was their grandmothers. When you do a design board and already have certain pieces that you want to work with, just find a similar image online to use. Total spent was around $1800 for this makeover! With the bed being only $150 and painting all the furniture was a huge savings. A roll is about $30 and we used about 10-12 rolls total for this project. I mention below how to calculate how much you need. I love this wallpaper is very affordable. (I wrote a blog post on creating design boards HERE). It is so important to look at all the pieces together BEFORE you buy anything. You can just do this on a blank word document. The first thing I did was do a design board. Ok there is a lot to take in! THIS Ribbon Wallpaper from Devine Wallpaper turned out AMAZING! I love that this style can work with a modern style and it also feels a little coastal like a basket weave. ![]() ![]() Thank you Devine Wallpaper for making this makeover possible and sponsoring this post Dark Master Bedroom BEFORE. But, the wallpaper really makes the room feel complete and more styled than anything else! Ok are you ready to see it? (PS- you can shop everything at the end of this post and I also mention about what we spent). And many hours on my part installing the wallpaper. It took many hours to paint the furniture and I will share the details. We took their room from being dark and cramped to light and bright! Best part- we kept ALL the same furniture! We painted the dark wood bedroom set all white, did a little DIY to the headboard and wallpapered the main focal point wall with temporary wallpaper. I am so, so, soooooo very excited to show you this bedroom makeover! This room belongs to neighbors and good friends of mine.
