I'm wondering what my husband will think when he asks me "What did you do today?" and my answer won't involve shopping! Wait, I take that back, it DID involve shopping....shopping from my house (Nester Style)!
The Nesting Place has been having a series on how to re-vamp rooms in your house in just 10 minutes. She encourages you to find things around your room and just add some changes here and there. I was inspired and decided to rise and shine early Saturday morning (with the help of some snow blowers outside) and apply these strategies to our ever so desperate bedroom. I have really neglected decorating our bedroom until about 10 minutes ago so please don't judge the before pictures!
Keep in mind that I'm NOT finished yet and I may just end up going shopping OUTSIDE of the house for a few things. However, this 10 minute make-over has made our room just a bit more cozy!!
Step 1: Make the Bed
*Before*
*After*
Step 2: Personalize it. Create a tablescape.*Before*
*After*
Step 3: Remove all clutter and electronics. Embarassing before photo I know. Like I said, this room has been *neglected* and I have been sick for 3 weeks (hence the old TV brought in).
I also brought a little of the outside in with a plant I had left over from a valentine's centerpiece. I just put it into a blue and white pot I had stored downstairs.
Another suggestion from the Nester is to add more fabric to a room. My husband and I just bought some fabric last week and that has really help soften the room. Now, I just need to get some tie backs.

This was fun and really only took 10 minutes!

ReplyDeleteIT's amazing what a difference your tablescapes make! The dresser one especially caught my eye. Nester is fabulous with her suggestions. I started leaning frames, too! :-)
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I spent the better part of the morning cleaning my room after I read her post. I always leave my bedroom for last.
