Pallet for Home: Guest Room Updates

Guest Room Updates

Saturday, August 11, 2012

We've had a guest room that's been pretty much a place to ignore. However, we have been slowly but surely making changes. We still need to paint the entire room, but we think it's something we will do in the coming months. That means that the items I've gotten for the wall so far won't be up just yet.

I wanted to change up some pillow covers I had gotten on clearance with insert at JCPenney for $4 each a few years back. I used some RIT dye for the first time, and made them feel like something brand new for little cost. They went from cream to gray within five minutes of stirring the mixture around in some warm water. It was an easy update and I'm glad I finally tried it out.

I've added them to the bed in the guest room. Here they are along with some other items I've added to the room so far.

Table Lamps
1. Yellow from Target on clearance for $15
2. Gray a redo from Marshalls for $30

Night Stands
1. Left Side is a purchase from the Tag Sale by Elizabeth & Co for around $50.
2. Right Side is the fold in Gossip Table we received from our neighbor for free.

Bed:
1. My Aunt gave this to us a few years ago and we love the chippy paint on it.
2. Quilt Coverlet from Kohl's $30 with sale and Kohl's Cash.
3. Pillow Covers from a few Etsy Stores (Glam Design & Elmeno Pillows) and Home Goods. Don't tell Amy at While Wearing Heels that I didn't make them myself. :)

Thanks for checking out the progress so far. Next up after my classes end will be curtains and painting the walls.
