Guest Room in Progress.

We finally painted our guest bedroom/Matt's office space. We also finally got our corner desk and more from Pottery Barn. However, the rest of the bedroom furniture and bedding accessories are still a work in progress. Here are some pictures of the process and what we have so far:

What the room looked like before painting. Unfortunately I don't have an actual before picture.

Basically piled everything onto the bed in the middle of the room in preparation for painting.

My wonderful husband painting with me after work.

After just two long nights, we completed the room. Painting with a partner is so much better!



Still trying to figure out how to configure the room. I think the is the best option for the bed placement.

I also painted the side table I had in that room the same color as the wall. I forgot to take a before picture, but it used to be pale yellow. I bought for a mere $25 while antiquing.

I set it up in the small alcove right next to the door as you enter the room.

The desk and its pieces. Unfortunately, the person at pottery barn failed to realize we also needed another top for the two extra cabinets in order to make the top flush with the corner desk set. Thus, we still can't set it up completely yet. Hopefully soon.

This is similar to what I eventually want to do with that room. I'm going to buy long white wall shelves above the desk, but probably not in the corner since the actual desk part on ours is in the corner and not on the side like the room below.

So far that's what I have. It's also been nearly impossible finding the right office chair. I'm considering this one from West Elm, but not sure yet.



So many things left to do still!
