home improvement

I'm not sure where it came from, but all of a sudden I had an urge to re-do our guest room. It isn't anything big or fancy, but I recently learned (the hard way) that our white quilt on the bed is a magnet for Sarge. I guess his black fur attracts the white!

I've started making a board on my Pinterest dedicated to my guest room re-vamp. It all sort of started when I bought a dresser at Goodwill last week. After refurnishing our table and chairs, I've wanted a new project and thought this could be a good place to start!

I'll give you a sneak peak of my thoughts thus far.

I already have these Euro shams, but need some turquoise/navy pillows to accompany them.

I have white now, and like I said, we really need a dark color quilt!

Gold knobs and bail pulls on the dresser painted white with an antique brown top.

Fabric to drape over a small round side table used either as a beside table or TV stand.

And a gorgeous gold floor lamp for the corner of the room.

What do you think!?

Looks like it will come together quite nicely! I am getting really into home improvement (or apartment improvement, too!) right now I am working on getting our bathroom re-done. I just need to muster up the energy to paint!
