Let's see a quick reminder of what the room looked like before:
Our room was already painted one of my favorite colors, Benjamin Moore Palladian Blue. We really didn't have much furniture or any art work and the curtains needed to be lengthened. It was great to start with a somewhat blank canvas. With the help of thrift stores, Craigslist and some DIYs we were able to makeover our bedroom.
You can catch up on the progress of this room with these posts:
I love how our DIY headboard and bench turned out.
DIY shadow box frames and shell art give our room that coastal feel. We love to go to the beach in the summer and collect shells, most of these are one's I've collected. I sanded our dresser and put on some lime wax to give it a more natural look.
The armoire was a steal on Craigslist and got painted white, but I kept the original hardware, which is a crest shape.

ReplyDeleteBravo. You and your family must be so proud of the finished product.
ReplyDeleteIt looks beautiful! I love the headboard and bedding/pillows. The seashell shadow boxes are a great idea! I'm going to make one for the shells we've collected. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sam. I love how our shadowboxes turned out and will give a tutorial soon.
DeleteThis turned out to be such a lovely, comfortable looking room! I like how you were able to keep your curtains and add fabric to lenghthen them. Nicely done!
ReplyDeleteI liked the curtains too and I'm so glad we lengthened them. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteGorgeous. This is such a beautiful and inviting room. I love the calm, inviting vibe you achieved without it being blah. Well done.
ReplyDeleteWhat a restful retreat! I'm with you - I'd never get this stuff done without a deadline that is imposed by someone other than myself. :-) I'm impressed that you've tackled more than one ORC! I'm going to need some time to recover! Enjoy your beautiful master!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jenny. I love how restful our room feels too. I have a love/hate relationship with the ORC deadline. So glad it's done and now I can rest too!
DeleteWhat a tranquil space to retreat to at the end of the day! I think our master bedroom will be the next room I decorate & I got so much inspiration from your space. Love the DIY headboard & shell art especially!
ReplyDeleteThanks Wendy! I felt it was high time to decorate our bedroom after we've done most of the other rooms in the house. It feels great to have a decorated, cozier space.
DeleteBeautiful bedroom, very calm and elegant. Well done!
ReplyDeleteLooks wonderful. Great job Tracy. My favorites are all the white with splashes of other colors and the black and white photos. Love it all. You have done and inspiring job.
ReplyDeleteI love the addition of the armoire and desk...the room looks fuller and warmer, without being overcrowded. I love it!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty! I love the drapes! And I can't believe you made your own headboard! You are amazing...also, loved that you showed us your past ORCs.....amazing!!
ReplyDeleteThanks Alberina! We love our room now! I will put up how to make a headboard soon. It's a lot easier than you might think.
DeleteThis bedroom looks so peaceful. Just what a bedroom should be, right? You have done a great job. That headboard is stunning. Love all the pillows. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks Erin! It's so nice to have our bedroom looking cozier and decorated. Your project turned out amazing as well!
DeleteIt turned out great! I especially love that pillow on the gold chair. I'm excited to see it in person... Wanna come do our master now? ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Lia! I would love to help with your room!
DeleteWhat an amazing transformation! A true job well done. I adore the color palette you selected. It feels fresh and fun. The six weeks went by so fast. I completed our entry, living and dining areas in a new to us 30 year old house. So, cheers to us! Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on your project too! We are loving our room all decorated now.
DeleteThis turned out so serene and pretty! I love the custom curtains and your dresser looks so pretty!
ReplyDeleteThanks Beth! The room does feel serene and cozier than a big blank space. Your room turned out amazing! Arent you so glad we did the ORC?
DeleteTracy, this is lovely. It feels like a hotel suite. I adore all the changes and colors you put together. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThanks Linda! We love all the changes to the bedroom too. It's good to have pictures on the walls, projects done and a room that feels cozier. Thank you for hosting such a great challenge.
DeleteI knew your room would be wonderful, and I was right! Fabulous space dear Tracy!
ReplyDeleteVel, you are so kind! Thank you for your words of encouragement. We are loving our space now that it has some furniture and art work on the walls.
DeleteTracy aren't you glad you finally finished it?:) I love how you pulled it together on such a budget....but it certainly doesn't look like you held back at all.....so pretty. The color on the walls is one of my favorites and I painted the inside of my front door that same color!
ReplyDeleteSherry thank you for your compliments on our room. Palladian blue is certainly one of the prettiest colors and I have seen your door- it's pinned all the time and so beautiful!!
DeleteTracy, this looks amazing! Your bed is so pretty. Hope you're enjoying your beautiful new space!
ReplyDeleteHi Jennifer! We love our space now! Mostly I love that it doesn't look like an empty cave and it has pictures on the wall that make me smile. I LOVE how your room turned out! Brava for us!
