Chic Guest Bedroom and Office Reveal

3 shares

  • Tweet

Sometimes, I must think I’m Wonder Woman.

At the beginning of every week, I create a list of what I need / want to get accomplished.

The list is usually one full page of my large planner long and somehow I think I will be able to do all this stuff within the week.

The only time I get to work on my projects and the blog is a few hours each day before the kid wakes up and after she goes to sleep, and for 4 1/2 hours two days a week while she is at preschool.

I must be crazy.

Not every item on that list ever gets checked off.

Needless to say, I had planned on showing this completed guest bedroom and office space to you months ago.

Yea, right.

Whatever voice in my head telling me that was insane.

You have seen some projects from it already, but you haven’t seen the whole enchilada.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeofficeJust for the record: I know I also showed you my master bedroom mini-makeoverΒ two weeks ago. Don’t expect a bi-weekly room makeover from me. That was a fluke and stressful and obviously, once more, I’m starting to realize I’m not Wonder Woman.

It would be damn cool if I were though.

Before you see all the beauty shots, let’s start with a couple before photos, shall we?

This room has been last on the list since we moved into the foreclosure. It did get new carpet and a paint job, as did all the other rooms when we moved in, but that’s it.

There’s the Jonathan Adler inspired chair before it was the Jonathan Adler inspired chair and a kid who has grown tremendously since this photo was taken.

Things were just kind of thrown haphazardly in here until I knew the direction I wanted to go with it.

I finally figured out that direction.

This is the very chic and very fun guest bedroom and office.

This is where I work everyday, so in all honesty, I totally made this room more about me than any other room in the house.

Call me selfish if you want. I will fully agree and totally embrace that fact.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

The desk I made from two different pieces of furniture is so ridiculously functional and gorgeous that I am still smitten with it. I am really excited that my Jonathan Adler inspired chair still worked in the space. I so didn’t want to give it up.

I’m also still quite smitten with the faux wall moldings and sequined coat hangers.

You’ve seen sneak peaks of that leopard accent wall last week in the post about room decorating ideas for spring and on Instagram if you follow me there.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

What do you think of the whole picture? I am over the moon with how it turned out. You can get the details on the leopard print accent wall here.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

We did switch out the bedding as I’ve already told you. I got a basic comforter and livened it up with pillows and by upholstering the box spring.

I also made that “hello darlin'” wall art on the cheap.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeofficeYou saw the navy and gold chests back in December. At that point, I wasn’t sure what direction I was going in the space. I just knew I loved navy and gold, so I did the chests that way.

I’m not quite sure about that paint stroke lamp yet. I can’t decide if its a DIY fail or win. What are your thoughts? Its ok, I can take the criticism. Its definitely not how I pictured it in my head, but I like to be real around here and let you know that I screw up very often.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

I’ve already shared the super easy duck tape curtains with you as well.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

I pulled out another side table I had downstairs and gave it the same navy and gold treatment for the other side of the bed.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeofficeI love how large the top of it is. It allows me to display more crap like the DIY gift bag art I showed you last week.

Guest Bedroom + Office Reveal {Guest Bedroom Ideas} via RainonaTinRoof.com #guestbedroom #bedroom #office #homeoffice

Look, there is still plenty of room left for guests to drop their stuff. I don’t have that much crap on it after all.

    I don’t like the accent wall or the DIY lamp, but I LOVE the DIY navy and gold chest and nightstand. The color is gorgeous! I hate to sound like a Design Star judge, but overall, I think you need to edit and remove some of your accessories because it is a tad busy and would not be relaxing for a guest (if that’s the look you are striving for; if not, then it’s fine).

    It is absolutely lovely, really like the black furniture I have got as far as buying the black paint! I am like you with the lists, why do we do that to ourselves? I guess it is OK if we rule the list and not the other way round. Once again really well done

    There is so much fabulousness happening here… I don’t know where to start! Your accent wall is stunning, your attention to detail in your furniture makeovers is amazing, your art is sassy. And there’s plenty of shiny, happy gold for the metallic-lovers. I’m smitten!

    Since my dratted pc was on the blink for 2 full months I missed so many posts. Trying to get caught up but in mean time I still get my regularly subscribed posts. Once in awhile I have to do something around here but sit at this time eater. Sure have missed seeing what you’re up to.
    Wow love the leopard print on wall and sheet. Love it all. You’ve been busier than a long tail cat in a room full of rocking chairs. (one of hubs Okie sayings.) Hard to keep up with you. Happy Easter and Spring.

    Just blown away by all the details! You are totally Wonder Woman in my book. The hello darling art over the leopard print wall is my favorite part. The sequined hangers are a close second. I’m not sure on the paint stroke lamp, but I definitely wouldn’t call it a fail. I think maybe I would like it more if the lamp was bigger. Does that make any sense? Haha…

    This room makes me want to SING – songs are competing in my head like Will Ferrell in Elf singing “I love you, I love you, I LOVVVVEEE you!” and some weird version of So Fresh, So Clean by Outkast that uses the words So Chic and So Cool instead.

    I’m not 100% on the lamp shade, but also wouldn’t have noticed it if you didn’t mention it. It’s not tragic, just not as fabulous as everything else. That Adler-look chair is a beauty!

    Thanks for sharing this post at Thursday STYLE!

    This room is so good. I can’t pick just one thing to love. The leopard wall is amazing and the black trim is such a perfect detail. I can’t believe the curtains are trimmed with duct tape. The brush stroke lamp reminds me of the Martinique banana leaf wallpaper for some reason. Def not a fail. Did the bed rails come that green color or did you paint them? Such a beautiful room, thanks for the inspiration!

      Thank you so much, Candy! I am still so much in love with this space!! And I LOVE that Martinique banana leaf wallpaper – I want it someplace in my house so badly!! I did paint the bed rails. Its an old bed, and one of the rails was a bit rusty, so I decided to paint them! I was worried it might be a terrible decision, but it worked out perfectly!

    I think it’s a lovely guest room with a great desk — for a guest. It seems kind of inadequate for a full-fledged home office. Where are you storing your supplies? Where’s your printer? It might work if you only have minimal household paperwork, but not as a serious office. Still, it’s incredibly pretty!
