The purchase of a $5 piece of fabric was the impetus to make this change to my bedroom. I liked the natural colours in the stripes and used it to recover my headboard.
The headboard is made from two canvases. In the past when I recovered them, I did each one individually, but this time the fabric was wide enough to cover both so they look like one.
$6 for the canoe paddles, which I added my children’s birth dates to. Stuff gathered from around the house, a newly covered ottoman and a couple of cushions later, and my room is now ready for fall nesting.
It is a bit of a tight fit, but I’m not ready to give up my king size bed, ever :)
Because I kept the wall colours neutral, making a change to this room is easy. Here are some other looks achieved by changing the bedding and accessories.

ReplyDeleteI love how versatile you've made the bedroom! I love all of the looks but the newest one is probably my favorite. BTW, the canvas idea is brilliant!
ReplyDeletei love this design the best! :) i can't believe only a couple changes made it look so different. i'm going to need design tips from you when i get my own place!
ReplyDeleteSo cool! I love how you can change it up so easily. What a great price for those canoe paddles!
ReplyDeleteI love how you kept the walls neutral so that you can change things up so easily. That came out really amazing. Thanks so much for sharing at Sizzle into Summer.
ReplyDeleteLove the new look! The head board looks GREAT!
ReplyDeleteOh I love the blue with the oars. What a comfortable, soothing room!
ReplyDeleteI never thought of using canvases for a headboard. That is flippin' genius!! If we didn't already have headboards we like, I would steal that idea.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful makeovers. All of them!

Wow, I'm struggling just to get my room decorated for the first time! This is beautiful. I can't believe you did it for $11. I love it. Great job and thanks for posting it!

ReplyDeleteI love it all. How quickly you can change things up, the framed M over the bed, the ottoman cover.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing!
I can't decide which room I like best.
ReplyDeleteYou are like me, you are constantly changing things around! I love both rooms but the new nautical headboard is beautiful and very elegant. Great job. :)
