BEFORE & AFTER: Dawna’s Magazine-Perfect Bedroom Makeover!

Love this post? Share it! :)

When Dawna from That Country Place signed up for the 30-Day June Room Challenge, she was coming with a blank slate for her guest bedroom makeover. I couldn’t image what she would be creating here…

But I was about to find out. And I’m utterly blown away!

This here was her guest bedroom about 30 days before her guest bedroom makeover.

Why did you choose the room/space that you chose? 

“It just needed to be done!! We have been in our house 2 years on July 1, and the guest room just seemed to be the “catch all room.” We also have company coming this summer, so it seemed like the room that just had to finally get done!”~Dawna

 

What was the biggest “challenge” of this challenge? What stumped you? Also, what was the “easiest” part?

“I am one who can visualize a room pretty easily. So I wasn’t really stumped on any of this bedroom. I usually will pick a pillow, or a piece of fabric to be my starting point when I decorate. Then I go from there as to how I want the room to be.”~Dawna

 

Dawna really knows how to make a room look magazine perfect! What I love most is the pop of color in the nightstands. I wonder where she got them….? That color combo with the deep teal is perfect!

What piece of advice would you give to someone wanting to tackle a room or space?

“Look for larger pieces that make a statement, start with a small project and see it through to the end. Now that there is “pinterest” in the decorating world it is so easy to look through tons of pictures for inspiration! It doesn’t have to cost a lot to look great! Most all my accessories are from Walmart, Home Sense, Target and thrift stores. Have fun!! And take pictures so you can see your progress.”~Dawna

Again, here’s the “BEFORE” of this guest bedroom makeover.

I think she should contract her services! If she doesn’t, she should seriously consider it!!!

Has this Guest Bedroom Makeover room challenge impacted your life for the better? How so?

“I always feel better when I am organized, when my home and spaces are uncluttered and everything seems to have a “home.” I enjoy my home and sharing it with others.”~Dawna
