Slowly but surely I’ve been working on the guest room for oh, say about 3 years now. Yes, 3 – is that a problem? I have a hard time focusing on any one project for too long. It is what it is. Anywho, let me start by jogging your memory just a bit to get you up to speed because it’s been quite a while between projects in this room.
First I turned an old door into a headboard with the help of a hot glue gun and 25,000 yards of manila rope – not really that much – but kind of – you can find that tutorial here.
Then Martha Stewart rocked my world and saved me the trouble of diy’ing a sunburst mirror for over the bed. Next up, the good folks at Hobby Lobby got smart and started selling 96 inch curtain panels at an affordable price! And all I can think is – dude, Target get on that would ya?!
Then I shared the sentimental trays turned memo boards over at Infarrantly Creative.
I heart these boards so much! I used a bunch of vintage earrings to make push pins.
And now that we’re all caught up, here’s what I’ve been working on most recently – the gallery wall.
I’ve been collecting things for this wall for a while. I really love vintage paint by numbers. These were found in thrift stores and on Etsy.
The big framed chalkboard over the leopard print covered canvas board is an old diy project.
The chalkboard hooks I found at Anthropologie.
Our guests come to stay with us from out of town, mostly other states, so I wanted to give this gallery wall a bit of a welcome-to-kentucky feel.
Maybe someday this room will be “done”, but for now I’m just enjoying the process.
(The color on the walls is Waverly lambs wool.)
And the happy green chair makeover story can be found here.
love the gallery wall and how it brings in some fun pops of color! and yes, definitely has a kentucky feel to it, bless your heart. 😉
