remOTTeling: the guest bedroom

All three bedrooms in our house had a beige walls and a floral border at the top when we purchased the house in the fall of 2008.  Each evening after work we could peel and scrape and tear and peel and scrape and tear the floral borders off of the walls. 

Here is a before picture of our guest bedroom before.

And then here it is after.  I wanted the guest bedroom to be purple and fun.  (Maybe even a little girly.)  I painted the walls a faint lilac color and have curtains that match.  I have a dark purple bedspread with some texture and shine to it to give the room some depth.  I left the chandelier in the room and find that the light yellow color is a great compliment to the purple.

Then on one wall I painted it a little darker shade of purple to use as an access wall.  The darker purple wall coordinates with the bedspread and makes the room really pop.  I have one of Ott, E photographs hanging on the wall and then to tie the room together I have butterfly wall art.

 The butterfly wall art is white and then I painted a couple the darker purple color (same as the accent wall) to hang on the lighter purple side walls. I think it really ties the room together nicely. 

 And what would a room be without some wrought iron accent pieces.  I like the the wrought iron plays off of the dark color of the bedspread.
 
 And a purple lampshade that matches perfectly!
