the crash pad

Ahhhh...Just finished completing the guest room.  The house was basically move in ready around early March and I just now got around to finishing the spare room!  Time gets away from ya, I swear!  This is what we were dealin' with before a paint job was done, pink and purple walls! Rut row?

After we painted this room Tightrope (Olympic paint from Lowe's), it sat there collecting junk -- tools, school books, eventually winter coats once it FINALLY warmed up and the like.

We definitely lucked out with this room.  I still have a sleeper sofa that we somehow...magically...got into the house and into the spare room.  I ended up spending around $120 to spruce up the room.  The money was mainly spent on lighting (needed a lamp!), bedding for our guests, and a few little pieces to give the room some personality.


Quilt comforter and sham set from Target for 35! Down from 90! Heck yes!




Orchids, a little DIY artwork; the makeshift bedside table I found in my parents garage--used a little bit of spray paint to spruce it up, and this funky wooden lamp from Marshall's for 30!




Owls are a hoot...hehe.  Adorable painting from Pier 1 originally 30 dollars, but snagged it for 24 with a 20 percent off coupon.




both little cuties for the other bedside table from Marshall's and TJMaxx.  Birdcage: $10, glass outdoor lantern with the hanging mechanism removed: $15

 There ya have it!  We finally have a space for our friends to crash, a place to unwind and relax and eventually a mini office when someone isn't enjoying our Cadillac of sofa sleepers :)

Now accepting reservations,
