Bed Rest Diaries: Catching Up Part 3

Next, I dreamed up some new DIY updating ideas that I wanted to try in our bedroom and bathroom.  Here are the before and after pictures of what I did.


Before (notice the nightstands: inherited from Michael's childhood room)



Refinished mirror above bed, lamps, and full length mirror from Homegoods, nightstands and ottomans from Ikea

I then decided that the mirror that was once located above the fireplace needed an update and new home above our dresser. I refinished the mirror in blue with a gray glaze finish.



Oh this chair! First of all, as many of you know, I am not a huge fan of antique furniture or floral print but it was given to us by a dear family member so I just couldn't part with it.  Here is what it looked like before...


A little paint, white satin fabric, and silver nailhead trim gave this chair a complete revival!


Striped fabric from Ikea was used to make the pillow.  Although I wish I could take credit for the incredible sew job, one of my closest and most talented friends Chrissy Martin was kind enough to take on the job.


This chair is currently placed in our bathroom as a temporary fix while I am bed resting (hatching) our second child. 


Lastly, I found it mirror on clearance at Homegoods and again couldn't pass it up.


A little metallic paint transformed this mirror into something perfect for our bathroom!



Now onto my current projects!
