My bedroom is nearing completion and I am at a point where I can finally share! The only piece missing are my pink shutters which still need to be sanded, painted, and placed behind the bed, but for now, a fill in will suffice…you’ll get the idea. Anyway, I have to apologize for the picture quality as it doesn’t appear to be so good for some reason. Here is my bedroom redo as it stands today:
Before the makeover:
 |
| My old bedding and the headboard |
 |
| Good shot of the old paint color – a very nice green |
????
 |
| Our dresser before paint..hand me downs from good friends of ours (thanks Kelly!). The dressers are awesome and solid and roomy, it just needed some sprucing up! Now after adding Behr paint and primer on the walls (amazing paint!) and a WHOLE LOT of elbow grease and time, here is the end result: |
 |
| Isn’t this dessser so cool? It is so much better white! The candle on the top is Chris and my unity candle from our wedding – I like to always keep it on display and we light it yearly on our anniversary to celebrate! |
 |
| This hardware is so unique and feminine – so much better silvered up as well! |
 |
| These babies took forever…..and ever…..and ever to paint |
 |
| My iron headboard and footboard is a Craigslist find! And a great deal, too! The display behind the bed is temporary and will be replaced wth my pink shutters when completed…this is yet to be done. Thanks for your votes by the way!        The Behr paint made it so easy – the
room practically painted itself!
Painting the dressers
was really time-consuming
though and if I had to do it again,
I would go straight
to using the primer with paint
here as well. I just was trying to
use up some old paint I had first. It
certainly is more light and bright and
more soothing…what do you think?
Thanks for stopping by!

It’s beautiful! I really like the furniture redo’s!
your dresser looks fantastic in white-super job! i just did a bedroom redo, too, but unfortunately i have the same hideous gold and cream furniture. they don’t warrant being painted, so they’re there for now.
Very pretty. You did a great job. I love the color. The furniture looks fantastic. I agree furniture is hard to paint. I just finished a buffet. It was a hard job. Your room is beautiful. Thanks for shairng.
