Small Guest bedroom makeover so far....update
Comments (28)@Allison...I dont really have a preference for the bedding, we just moved into a new house and that was one set I had which was complete :). I can definitely change it. @ingrid...thanks for the suggestion about the pillow...that is exactly what I was thinking, something orange which goes with the flower. Unfortunately I didnt get to see the flower in the store, its online only....so I might have to take the risk of buying and returning if I dont like it.

Comments (15)It's good that you're adding wood in other places. If you want to stick with upholstered, I'd go with white. That way, if you ever want to paint or change artwork or colors, you've got a neutral base to start with on the nightstands and headboard. Are there knobs for the nightstands? World Market has some that are really fun and could give them a little oomph. Or these agate knobs from Etsy are lovely. https://www.etsy.com/listing/628023444/soothing-sea-blue-agate-stone-knobs-with?gpla=1&gao=1&utm_campaign=shopping_us_owlkraft_sfc_osa&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_custom1=0&utm_content=13943125&gclid=Cj0KCQjw753rBRCVARIsANe3o46MuyBdhI1FZYSxmcbusbAB5EsHpny0pbx4j5vsFQhD03avN4RZP44aAkKdEALw_wcB...See MoreHELP elevate my 'modern' home office / guest bedroom!
Comments (16)Regardless of forever home or not it would make sense to utilize the closet better for all of your 'office' stuff so if that means getting an outlet put in there so the printer and all your stuff on the tall shelving can go in there - that would be wise. Then, daybed or not, replace the tall shelving and nightstand with a continuous low closed storage furniture piece - maybe like this photo - this will open up the room visually. This furniture piece can function as a nightstand and office storage. Closed storage is your friend in this space. Replacing the closet doors with slider doors would allow for the 'office' to function easier. Maybe the inside of the closet is converted to half 'closet' for guests use and half 'office' with shelves for printer and office supplies. Then, once you decide on daybed or not I'd repost an updated photo and we can help with rearranging art. I think where you have it now is not doing the room any justice. I could see it consolidated/edited on the wall where the tall shelving is as that will create a focal point....See MoreHelp me finish my guest bedroom
Comments (40)@sparkleivy, it's a beautiful and cozy room. I agree that the lamps are short, and since they stay...maybe stack some books under them to add height. Guests could even grab a book to read from the stack..... As for the plants, I think if fresh plants aren't your thing silk plants do attract dust. I don't have them in my house, maybe try succulents, they are pretty easy to grow. I agree with fresh cut flowers for when guests arrive. That wall across the bed doesn't need much, and if space is limited what about some fun ornamental hooks, that guests can use for shirts, hats, jackets? These were just an idea. The tree ones look fun, and earthy and are an interesting design all on their own. The birds were whimsical and may not be your thing, but just thought these wall hooks could be both pretty and useful....See Morefranksmom_2010
