Okay, so I have been wanting to completely redecorate our bedroom since we moved in this house. Our bedroom furniture, well, it’s sad to say, but they are pre-marriage…umm they are actually college-random furniture pieces that I collected. So, Seth gave me the thumbs up to redecorate on a ZERO budget. Well, I should say he did give me a very minimal budget. You see, since we live in an old house all the bedrooms are very small so we don’t want to invest in a nice bedroom set until we are in our dream home (hahaha). So with that said, I’m going to redecorate our bedroom with the intentions of the furniture being our future guest room (that we will have in our dream home too–wink wink).
The first item that I tackled is our nightstands. Remember back in the late ’90s when Mexican pine was really big? Well, those are our nightstands.
So, with the help of my interior designer friend Heidi, I picked out my inspiration room and colors. Then called my sister-in-law Carolyn for guidance in sanding, staining, painting, sanding then staining. Carolyn really knows a lot about refinishing furniture so she was really helpful. So here’s are my new nightstands. Your probably wondering why I choose this color, but I’ve got a color scheme I’m going with so I’m really happy with the results. I wanted a Wisteria-style finishing.
This looks great. Can’t wait to see the whole room re-do.
Yea! I knew they would look best with the hinges painted over. They look great!!! I’m on the hunt for the fabric for your drapery.
oh and the new hardware is great!
wow, girl! you are amazing. they look fabulous.
Looks great! Can’t wait to see the room when it is all done.
I love it, I love it, I love it! The brown stain is perfect. Great job!! So did you enjoy doing it?
Pottery Barn sells a line that looks identical, but costs some $300 a pop. You determined little lady-creating amazing furniture for nothin’. Post a picture when you’re all done.
This looks great, can’t wait to see the whole bedroom completed.
I love it also. You did a great job. I can’t wait to see the whole room when it’s finished.
