The holidays are more than quickly approaching. You know what that means, out of town guests. Yes, my darlings. A guest room should be equipped with a few key essentials for your friends and family. Number one on that list? A bottle of booze to make it through holiday family functions. I am so kidding. (Not really). One of my musts would be a luggage rack. I have to tell you, I have scoured high and low for one of these babies and I have to tell you, they are not cheap. The cheapest one I ever found was $150. No lie. Until, I recently went to a local estate sale. Hello $6.00. Holllllaaaaarrrr. It needed some major TLC but this is where she is now.
What do you think? Here are her humble beginnings. Rough. I mean that is definitely a brown bagger. Definitely.
So it went from that up there, to this below by using this pink and black trim and a can of black lacquer spray paint.
My girl Jessica from The Aestate has also outlined the musts for any cozy guest room. Things missing: Booze and Xanax. Key essentials folks. Is this not the cutest checklist? Love that Jessica.

So there you have it. Moral of the story: find yourself a luggage rack for $6.00, then find yourself some perfect adornment and give that baby a makeover. Loves! XOXO
Look at you!!!! You crafty little thing! Love it!
ReplyDeleteI love this idea! Yay for great estate sale finds. and I agree booze is a must for the holidays- especially with my family:)
ReplyDeleteSuch a thoughtful piece for a guest and really for 6 bucks that is amazing. Love the ribbon you chose. And course Jessica's watercolor is Aaaaahhhhhmazing. Love her
ReplyDeleteLove the trim and Jessica's list.
ReplyDeleteWait, is the Xanax for you or the guests? Don't give all the good stuff away lady - you'll need that shiz!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Luggage rack win. Seriously.
I have one that was passed down from my grandmama. There is very little that was kept from her sweet, humble home but saw how it found it's way to me, and I am so glad! But, I think it needs a makeover!
ReplyDelete$6.00 never looked better!
ReplyDeleteBrilliant my dear.
ReplyDeleteSo cute! Can't wait to have a guest bedroom someday.
ReplyDeleteNow that is a seriously fab guest room with a luggage rack. Your guests will never leave. Great list, Jessica.
ReplyDeleteHmmm I passed on one recently for ten bucks...yours looks stylin'! Made me rethink that ole luggage rack now~
ReplyDeleteI would have never thought of this but I actually love the idea. And Jessica's illustration is so cute! A magazine should scoop her up quick and get her to illustrate their cute lil round ups.
ReplyDeletedude. i had no idea they went for so much! should have snagged one months ago at an estate sale!
ReplyDeleteGreat DIY! And I love the pink & black combo ♥
ReplyDeleteNice score and fixer upper! Yes, this is something I've been searching for as well!

Great minds think alike ;) I scored a luggage rack at goodwill ... It's waiting for a coat of paint. Adore the trim you chose!!! Happy Turkey Day to you and yours...Pass the Xanax please !!
ReplyDeleteKeep the sacrifices they've made in mind, and take the time to embrace the understanding of how much these people must love you to have traveled so far for your wedding. Meredith's mother suffered from Alzheimer's in prior seasons. 4.
