I love this!! Your headboard looks fantastic!
My problem child is my spare bedroom and the dated peachy-tan walls.
Rachel says
Looks awesome! Personally, I’m not a huge fan of distressed furniture/cracked paint, but I can appreciate it when it is done well, and you have done it well! I may also tackle our master, It’s still grandma beige, and has holes in the walls and peeled paint all over the place!
Laura smith says
This is a beautiful makeover! You truly are a girl inspired. What inspires me is the way you blend your soft, romantic touches with just enough masculine touches to make your husband comfortable too well done. Our bedroom needs to take a page from this inspiration! Thanks.
Tonia Jeffery says
It looks perfect! We are in the process of looking for a house to buy so I’ll probably have a whole house to makeover.
Judi Duncan says
Nice and peaceful for a master bedroom, clean and simple….
Abby says
Love love love this Stef!!! Especially your headboard and the wood wall! So incredible!
Kristie Clower says
Wow Stef! Your room looks amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love the barn wood wall. I’m a sucker for reclaimed wood. Thank you so much for sharing. xoxo
Jen says
So gorgeous! I would never want to leave my room 😉
stacey says
Love the fresh paint! And your barn wood wall looks amazing. Great job!
Lindsay says
It looks great! I don’t know if I would have the guts to paint the dresser like you did. I really like your wood wall, too. Awesome job!
Erin says
thanks for the sweepstakes!

my living room
Emily says
Gorgeous makeover and a great blend of feminine and masculine! 🙂
Nicola says
oh my goodness I would love to have the skills to achieve this. Maybe one day! Well done!!! It looks lovely, especially the before and after comparison.
kristin says
Great makeover! If I won I think I’d redo our TV room – thinking of painting the wall behind the TV black so the TV sort of disappears against it…FANCY.
Barbara P. says
Great makeover… I LOVE that headboard and can’t wait to hear more about it. Our master is also in need of a makeover and new paint and a headboard like that would certainly be a great start!
keshakeke says

What a difference some paint makes! We are building a new house and will be ready for paint next week. If I win I will start with picking paint for my new living room!
Krissy McLean says
With a possible out of state move on the horizon I have any and all rooms available for a make over but this post makes me want a retreat for my husband and I muy pronto!! It is just beautiful and I love the wood wall!!
Carolyn says
The wood “headboard” is incredible! I’m also surprised how much I love the crackle finish on the dresser. You do great work! I’m going to check out that paint!
Stephanie says
I love it! I love the colors and how refreshing they are. I really need to makeover my bedroom. It’s been sitting half done for about 2 years. Sad, I know.

I would like to repaint because i am tired of the brown chocolate coat on my kitchen walls
Natalie says
I need to makeover my living room because there is no paint or pictures on the walls. Winning this gift card would help buy quality paint!

That is such an elegant, yet comfortable room! Your before is 10 times as pretty as my current room, but your after is just incredible. I normally prefer pieces to be kept in the stained-wood state, but the crackle effect on the dresser is perfect for your room…. and I love all the little decorating details everywhere!
Michele Marino says
Your room is beautiful! I’d love a chance to make over mine too!
Tiffany says
This looks like such a peaceful haven! My master needs some serious help.
KatieQ says
I love the colors and the mix of textures.
heather says
I love your make over it looks so nice and homey. I would make over my living room with Sherwin Williams.
BizzyMom says
Your room looks uh-mazing!! Love it!
My hallway is in need of a facelift. Needs to go from drab to fab 🙂
Julie Spear says
WOW!!! I have to say, this IS a really sophisticated room, which I wasn;t expecting from the initial image of the wood wall!!! You did a great job of balancing those elements into a very striking beautiful room – great job! your accessories are just a gorgeous as the larger elements in the room and totally complete the space!!! I like the mellow, relaxed feel, as well as the calming, pulled together feel also! Great choice in the neutral paint colors, and the crackle dresser is amazing! I would re-do my kitchen in a hot minute!! I made a bad pint color choice in there, and it needs re-done desperately, lol!! thanks for sharing your awesome bedroom!
Jaclyn Reynolds says
Those photos are beautiful! Love the bedding and colors in the room. I would love to makeover our main bathroom!
D Schmidt says
I adore your room! I would paint my upstairs bathroom, the colors are too dark for the space so I would like to paint it a pale green
alicia says
your master turned out amazing! the colors are warm and bright at the same time. if i won the prize i would makeover my living room. we have all new furniture but am stuck on the color for the walls. it sounds like i need to make a trip to sherwin-williams to check out their color selection tools.. thanks for sharing 🙂
Amy S says
Our master bathroom for sure! It really needs a new coat of paint…the pale green in there is so boring!
Jessica w says
the crackle looks very convincing, I wouldn’t have known it was newly painted!
Jessica w says
I tweeted too https://twitter.com/jessrwarfield/status/476421655552864256
Sally says
I really love how you tied in the rustic but very stylish look! Having grown up in the country and have the rustic look ingrained in me yet love the modern look, it’s always nice to see two completely different looks come together with the result being stunning and impressive.
Well done!
Heather says
You room make over is lovely – very calming colors and textures which are so perfect for a bedroom! We need to create those places of sweet rest and sanctuary in our homes since life is just so busy and involved! Great job! I love Sherwin Williams paint!

I would make over my kitchen and I think your make over has a cottage appeal

Kristie says
I love the headboard. It looks so soft in the room.
I think my whole house needs help, as the previous owners painted every room a different color, sometimes two or three colors. And hubby only wanted to slap some white paint up and call it good.
maria cantu says
I’d like to redo our bedroom.
Kathy L says
Love the fresh look and not overly chubby chic, going to try the crackle paint on some furniture, your photos and instructions were just what I needed to be inspired to do so. Thinking my master sitting area needs a little uplift with some painting and window treatments. Great blog.
Brian Lansford says
I love how you did the crackle-painted dresser. That’s a great way to add a little “age” to a newly redecorated space!
Betty C says
I love the changes you have made. I like the neutrals with a few splashes of color. I’d like to give my living room a new look.

I just love everything about this room. The wood with the chandelier — it’s all gorgeous!
I work with Cassity over at Remodelaholic and we are hosting Headboard Week and a big headboard link party that we’d love to have you come join! You can join the party here — we’re picking our favorites to feature on Saturday: http://www.remodelaholic.com/2014/06/headboard-week/

Beautiful room makeover- you created a real haven here!
Curious if you would be able to share where you got your bedspread. I’m getting ready to redo our bedroom and have been looking for a bedspread exactly like this!
girlinspired says
Hi Lydia – It’s the Shabby Chic line from Target!! Thanks for stopping by!
Christine Biondo says
Could you pretty please tell me where the bedspread is from? I love it!
