The Bedroom is Done!!! Before & After pics!

With one hour to spare.

As you may recall, my dh set off on an international business trip last Friday. As soon as that plane lifted off, I was off and running. He is due to walk through the door in 55 minutes! Thank goodness for the flight delay coming home.

I'll just post my before and afters. Thanks for all the advice during this week.

I went with BM Willow Creek on the walls, White ceiling. I left the rock wall. I did the master bathroom too while I was at it. I painted it in BM Nimbus, same paint strip I've become very attached to lately. I used white sheers and also white panels on the window, and all white bedding.

I think I have achieved the "boutique hotel" look I was going for. Hope you like the pictures...

    Thanks, and regarding the art behind the bed...those are photos I took on our trip last fall. Those are doors on the island of Mykonos. I blew them up and printed them at work on the poster printer. here they are:

    I love it! It is very spa-like. I'm sure he'll love it and think you're a miracle worker for getting it all done in one week.

    The end tables, lamps, mirrors and artwork over the bed really work well together and I love your bedding! Where did you get those great ruched pillows?

    Very, very nice, Bee! I'd like to hear how your husband reacted. That is perhaps even more interesting than the visual transformation. :-)

    That room just looks as if you can feel a soft breeze blowing through it. Just wonderful.

    I love the ruffly looking pillows on the bed; would you mind sharing where you got those, please.

    Bkw,
    What a great room you now have. I envy you your energy and talent.
    I love the paint colour and the white bedding. The mirrors behind the lamps are a terrific. Such a nice idea.
    Love the art and lamps also.

    He must have liked it :-D

    Home Goods - I need to remember to check there first when shopping!

    Thanks everybody. My dh was very very surprised. I lured in him in there in the dark....he thought he was going to help me choose between the paint samples on the wall! Once in the room, BAM, I turned the lights on and he was just so surprised. And of course the bathroom was a welcome surprise too. When he left it had a drywall patch that needed to be completed. I did that and he was shocked that it was so good. I also had replaced all the door knobs on the 2nd floor (we had bought them but never got to it) as well as the hinges. So I do believe he was extremely happy to get some of those tasks crossed off the list.

    However, I then went on to break the bad news...I discovered that the toilet in our hall bathroom must have been leaking for some time now. There was a large puddle on the floor, and dining room ceiling had two big spots. Well, at least it is a ceiling that needed to be repainted. The bamboo floor is trashed, He is currently up there ripping up the floor and baseboards....just found mold. Hopefully some good doses of mold and mildew stuff will do the trick while it is drying out.

    Back to the bedroom....the bedding is from Home Goods.

    Better go, lots of growling and sighing coming from the bathroom....

    Bee, lovely, lovely room! I'm amazed you got it all done so quickly. I really love the bedside tables.

    Sorry about the bathroom floor. It is always something isn't it? UGH.

    Love the bedroom Bee - what is the artwork on the wall to the left of the bed (looks like it says 'Flowers' on it)?

    Sorry about the water damage. :(
