S+S at home: guest room updates

Yesterday we guest posted over at Living Saavy, talking about spray painting a headboard for Lindsay's {Sadie's mom} guest bedroom. Today we wanted to tell ya a little more about the space. It is by no means done, we still need art for the walls, drapes and a dresser but it's heading in the right direction! 

If you read our guest post you'll know this room was done on a serious budget and in a VERY short amount of time, we're talking a week people! We had company coming and the state of the room was unacceptable, it was more of a collection pile for laundry and junk than a room. Please don't judge! 

I hit the jackpot and found the headboard at a local Goodwill for $40 one Saturday, ordered a few cans on Krylon's Coral Isle...

...and voila!! The headboard had a whole new look. I decided to move the bed to the opposite wall to open the room up a bit. As I said, I am still on the hunt for the perfect dresser to place on the wall opposite to the bed. I originally was thinking about purchasing all new bedding, but it wasn't in the stars, or budget I should say. I stuck with what I had but added a few linen accessories. The gray euro shams were a steal, $10 a piece at West Elm and the coral stripe throw pillow was only $18 at one of our local boutiques! The green chevron throw was on sale at Land's End and I only paid $30 with free shipping.

Next, I needed a bedside table. This was a tricky one folks! Deciding on a color was difficult. I found the milk glass lamp first and knew it would be perfect in the space! I actually found it at the fab Mrs. DeVore's booth in Concord! When I spied this charcoal table it was love at first sight! I love how the gray ties in with the gray in the shams and the subtle hints of it in the duvet.

I picked up a few free accessories from around the house and the room was ready for some guests! It still needs some sprucing but for a grand total of $210 for everything I am LOVING the results!

It's amazing what you can do on a small budget with a little searching and a can of spray paint. Hope you have a fabulous Thursday readers!
