GUEST BEDROOM BLUES

Jenny Sulpizio

Guest bedrooms are the opportunity to create a space solely for the purpose of entertaining others. Whether it’s out of town guests, family members, friends, or anyone in between.

These rooms can range in style and formality, depending on the overall vibe you’re wanting to showcase.

Either way, said spaces should be comfortable…cozy…and a place your visitors will want to revisit time and time again.

So, when my client called me up to revamp her guest bedroom, I couldn’t wait to get to work on it.

Here is where we started…

This room was in need of some new bedding, nightstands, and the overall cozy factor that guest quarters need to emote.

The first step? Paint!

Already a light blue, I wanted to mellow it out just a bit but also lighten and brighten the area. Sherwin Williams Misty did the trick!

After adding in a few pieces of furniture (while taking away others), and bringing in fresh decor, this beautiful blue guest bedroom is ready for visitors:

Beautiful draperies and linens from Pottery Barn make this space for sure—the perfect blend of patterns, solids, and stripes.

Two nightstands were brought in, a bench at the base of this full bed, a new ceiling fan, bamboo window shades, and the list goes on and on.

A simple piece of artwork, old books via The Goodwill, some foliage, and a nice, chunky, bedside lamp were all on tap to take this space from kinda bland to the next level.

And it appears this kitty agrees…
