Bedroom 3: Cottage House Flip Reveal

It is Bedroom Reveal Week and we are on Day 3, revealing the third of six bedrooms (halfway there!). Click below to witness the before, during & after transformation:

Once upon a time, before it was dubbed “Bedroom 3”, we had this:

Lots of flowers, lots of stripes and lots of wood.

Whoa nelly. Not exactly the most relaxing place.

After the walls became white and the carpet was removed, The choice was to pay homage to the floral motif, in a new and updated way: stenciling.

The wood wall paneling was a bit too heavy, so I lightened it up with the same light gray used throughout the bedrooms (and on the exterior of the home for consistency):

Ahhh. Much better. I also ditched the too-large queen bed in favor of a twin bed that fit perfectly against the stenciled wall, allowing room for a desk nook (I kept the strong vintage trunk, of course!)

And now we have a sweet little room fit for a princess (or a prince, no judgment here):

You may recognize the art as a DIY project from the master bathroom in my last house. They stayed perfectly preserved 🙂

The Country Living stylist brought in these pale pink pillows (from Target, I believe) which worked out quite nicely.

I mixed in a few yellow and white ones from storage and now we have a room well suited for Spring (who else is ready?!)

And this quilted bedskirt that It helps to keep so much… remember it from yesterday's reveal?

Yep. Cannot get enough.

And shout out to my parents for letting me borrow their daybed! It takes a village.

And these wall sconces! I cannot stop using them everywhere.

Going from a queen bed to a twin genuinely made the biggest impact. It helps to keep when rooms can be dual purpose.

Thanks to Country Living, again, for the desk props! (except the baskets, those were mine from Ikea).

Ahhh… so much space to play in.

So long, Bedroom 3. Onto the next…
