A New Project Begins (Bedroom Redesign)
I’m about to start on a new project, and I’m super excited about it! This is a project for a client…not in my condo. (Heck, sometimes I get tired of talking about my condo, so I know y’all must get tired of it, too!)
Anyway, the homeowners had been leasing a house, but recently decided to buy it. So naturally, they’re ready to make some changes–from rental to personalized home. We’ll be starting in the bedroom–my favorite room to design–and the master bath.
Here’s what the room looks like right now.
It’s pretty much a blank slate, with builder’s beige walls, no window treatments, etc.
So here’s the vision…
The main goal is to add warmth and texture with:
- natural woven Roman shades;
- cream silk drapery panels;
- a diamond-tufted headboard;
- pendant lights;
- wood bedside tables;
- accent pillows;
- and artwork above headboard.
You can run your mouse pointer over the photo below to see a quick change view of the “before” room and the design plan.
We’ll be getting started soon, and I’ll be sharing the process and projects (like the diamond-tufted headboard) with you along the way.
Addicted 2 Decorating is where I share my DIY and decorating journey as I remodel and decorate the 1948 fixer upper that my husband, Matt, and I bought in 2013. Matt has M.S. and is unable to do physical work, so I do the majority of the work on the house by myself. You can learn more about me here.
Wow, what a plan!
can't wait to see the progress! Looks awesome and I love the hanging pendants!
LOVE the tufted headboard & rich paint color 🙂
I love it and can't wait to see it. What software do you use to do that? I would like to use it for some rooms in my house.
Well, I dont have any fancy schmancy software. I just use Paint Shop Pro. It does the job, but I'd eventually like to get Photoshop. I can't afford the full version, but Denise at Design Strategies (http://www.decorateyourspace.net/designstrategies/wordpress/) said that she uses a $150 version of Photoshop, so I need to check that out.
I have Photoshop but I don't know how to use it. Maybe I need to take a class on it to learn how to do that.
Thanks,
Debbie
