After we put hardwoods in the upstairs last year, we did a budget-friendly guest room makeover.
This is an UPDATED POST
My granddaughters call this bedroom the “beachy bedroom”.
The “headboard” is a screen from Hobby Lobby. The mirrors were ones I had around the house. The bed was from Amazon…super cheap and totally comfy for kids or a guest room. This was truly a penny-pinching project.
To save money, I added a few wood bead garlands to an old light (I already had this light). I got the beads on sale right before Christmas at Hobby Lobby – they were intended to be used as a holiday garland-
We found a dresser for next to nothing at a thrift store and we spruced it up with new knobs, new top (made by Mike), and a fresh coat of paint.
At first I added a rocking chair to this corner…
But I really wanted a little reading nook for the littles so I did a little makeover on the corner…
I had loads of fun with this part of the project!
My second favorite project was the wood bead light made from Christmas garland and an old light we had in our stash…
And just a few pictures of the chandelier.
This was easy…all I did was wire the garland onto the light…
The light was fine before but when I found the wood bead garland I thought I’d give it a different vibe…
A few paper lanterns over the bed and I’m done!
We also did a little makeover on the other guest room, better known as Reba-the-Cat’s room 🙂 I’ll post this room soon.

LOVE. LOVE.
It says, “Welcome, I love you. Relax. Everything’s okay.” The muted colors are so peaceful–especially the colorful garland on the headboard.
Beautiful! So glad to see you posting the beautiful work you and Mike do!
It does have a beach warmth to it- and I love how the light enters and gives it such a soft feel. I can see why the kiddos would want to come and hang out in there! Its dreamy!!
Great looking guest room! I really like the light and calm colors with the touches of texture from the wooden elements. The room looks so comfortable and relaxing.
Looks so comfortable and cool. Beautiful! everything is nice.
Glad to see your post.
