Remember when I set that crazy ambitious one week time frame for transforming the guest room? Ready for TONS of pictures? Don’t mind me, I just love to “show off”! 😉
Before – early years
Before it was my office/craft room. But it was always a mess. I moved that room upstairs so I can shut the door when needed and keep my project mess and work spread out. The guest bedroom needed to be on the same floor as the guest bathroom.
Here it is all emptied with baseboard trim removed and as you can tell, we tore out the nasty carpet when we moved in and moved on to other more important projects.
My mood board was designed to include things we already had including thrift store finds. A mood board is always a great way to start a room makeover and helps to visualize and form a design direction.
I painted the floor and painted an area rug look-alike (more details here)…
I painted the walls and installed baseboard trim as well as door trim around the bathroom door. .
Wall color is a mix of Dutch Boy “Lake Champlain” and “Aquamarine White”.
Trim = Dutch Boy Trim & Cabinet paint in ultra white.
The black chandelier + a little turquoise Rub ‘n Buff Turquoise by Bri…
And finally, the reward for all of that painting, I put the room together.
Thanks to Better Homes & Gardens, I warmed up the room for guests arriving this fall. I am participating in BHG’s “make your home guest ready for less” and was able to select $100 worth of BHG products at WalMart.com. I was pleasantly surprised with the beautiful products, great quality and big selection!
Swap out old dusty shades for new BHG tapered taupe drum shades
to soften light and add a warm glow to the room.
Seating area is a great place to curl up with a hot mug of mulled cider and a good book. (Or a cat!)
Add a BHG gold chenille throw and relax!
Add a BHG gold chenille throw and relax!
Sweet fall scents make me happy to be indoors when it’s chilly outside.
BHG Fleur de Lis wax warmer is a pretty creamy ceramic accent…
div>
(and glass insulator turned votive)
BHG Delectable wax cubes in scents of warm vanilla creme, baked apple streudel, wild berry cheesecake and vanilla caramel spice create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
Pretty and fresh new guest towels make guests feel extra special.
Love this BHG Jacquard 3 piece set.
A pretty BHG peony decorative pillow is the perfect touch to a cozy bed full of bigger pillows.
Now the room is complete (minus a few finishing touches such as caulking the trim, filling trim nail holes and touching up paint), some DIY wall art and decor and curtains! Okay, that doesn’t sound near complete but it’s come a long way! What do you think so far? I’m loving how it all came together!
BEFORE & AFTER
Before – view from the guest bathroom
Standing in the guest bathroom after and taking a look at the view now…
Before (see that unframed door)
After
New door trim and wall space to decorate…
View from the dining room before…
View now (don’t worry, a curtain will be put back up to ensure guest’s privacy).
A much prettier view!
More happy views of how it looks now (with more DIY decorating projects coming up!)…
Planning something with this wall but first I want to rearrange the room a few ways.
Another view of the painted floor…
And where it meets the painted guest bathroom floor…

I am still trying to get over the fact that that is a painted floor! It is incredible! The room turned out great! Are you taking reservations yet? Any one would be lucky to stay in this room. Now I want to rip up my hardwoods and paint all the floors! You are such a bad influence!
Your guest room is beautiful! I expecially ove the mix of colors you used and the mix of styles.
Your guest room looks amazing! I love that you painted the floor. It's such a neat idea!
I liked BHG on Facebook. Kinda surprised that I hadn't already done that.
I love some of the BHG rugs at Walmart. I'd probably get one of those.

Love how this turned out. Beautiful chairs!

turquoise is such a beautiful color but has always seemed hard to incorporate well. I love how you did it hear with the browns and golds. well done!
I love the curtains BHG has to offer, they are high style but not high price!
WOW! Great work! Love the colors you chose.
Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I love what you accomplished on a budget. And the fact that you accomplished it in a week is astounding. I've spent the past week redoing my Master bedroom and I'm not near finished so I can appreciate your hard work and dedication. So worth it to see your finished product! Can't wait to get mine finished and share. 🙂 ~Rachel (oldewindmillfarmhouse.blogspot.com)
I like BHG's pillows, and I would either get some brown ones for our bedroom or red ones for the living room.
Liked BHG on Facebook
WOW! This room is incredible! I love how cohesive it feels, and that floor is outstanding!
I just liked BHG on FB! 🙂
I think you did a fabulous job with this transformation, and your color scheme is exactly what I have planned for my dining room, so thanks for the inspiration! I've always loved the robin's egg blue/soft orange twist on the complementary pairing of blue and orange. I'm off to check out your painted rug instructions, since it would go perfectly in my house.
Just checked out BHG on Walmart.com. I'm on the lookout for a new dining room table, and the Autumn Lane Farmhouse Table would be PERFECT!
Roeshel, I am blown away! It ALL looks so incredible!! And your price list at the end… seriously?! You did such a stunning job on this room. That painted floor is to.die.for! LOOOVE! Your guests surely won't want to leave!!!
From the BHG collection, I'd pick a pair of the embroidered Leaf Garden pillows, which would be right at home in this room's color scheme, as a matter of fact.
Couple of things that I love about the makeover – the floor (i hope your back survived), the bedding love it, the mirror, awesome!
what would i pick from BHG – pretty much anything, I have been to walmart to see their collection, it's pretty nice, good selection, towels are soft to touch, so like i said pretty much anything
Whaaaa… that table was $1!?!? Where did you find it, it's so pretty! I love this room. I love the colors & how it's laid out & all the little unique vintage finds. This is AMAZING, can I come visit? 😉
It looks beautiful! I love the blue and orange together! I can't wait to see what you do for curtains!
I like BH&G on facebook!
From the BHG collection at Walmart, I really like the Bedding Bedskirt. I need a bedskirt for my bed right now & this one looks so pretty!
Those "orange/rust" chairs – and the blue, with all the white touches – so soothing!
I think this room is fabulous, stunning and just gorgeous! Who wouldn't want to be a guest here! The colors all pulled together so nicely!! Really very pretty!
Beautiful! You did a grea job of making it feel lived in, serene, and gorgeous all at the same time! Can I come visit>?? I wanna sleep in it!
Your guest room is gorgeous! I love the painted rug! And the painting over the bec is beautiful! What a relaxing retreat!

this is what i would order, 3 sets!
I would get a few Ella Semi-Flushmount Indoor Ceiling Lights. Need to start changing out the hall lights.
The Better Homes and Gardens Square Decorative Pillow, Peony would be a perfect accent in our living room. We just got done painting the walls. The couches look a little empty and could use a throw pillow or two.
I love the colors in your guest room. It came together nicely. I think you did a great job with all your creativity and keeping the cost down. I love reading about others' creative ideas.
Wow Roeshel, it is absolutely gorgeous!!! That floor is amazing. I love every single thing about that room. It kind of has the same feel as the living room you did. It could definitely be is the same house. Wow, just wow!! Awesome job! I love that so much of it is second hand treasures. I could go on, but I'd better get my daughter ready for school. I'll be back later to entry the giveaway a couple more times. =)

Did I mention, I LOVE the room! lol
SERIOUSLY GIRL! Seriously! It is beyond fabulous I keep scrolling back up and down to take it all of the details. I will be picking your brain about the floor cause that is exactly what I want to do in our dining room. You are amazingly talented and you should be so proud of your hard work!

This is beautiful … I love it! Your painted rug is amazing! Wish it would stop raining here so I could put the last coat of paint on my dinning room chairs. Your finished room makes me want to finish my dining room :)I hope it comes out half as great as yours! Francine
I love the soft blues in the new room.
Thanks for the giveaway!

i love you guess bedroom… such great colours but together. i love your painted on floor rug and just how classy everything looks put together = )
i've liked BHG on fb = )
I might choose the Pembroke Matelasse Coverlet if I won.
robyn(dot)geddes(at)gmail(dot)com
If I won I'd pick a few sets of the floral damask towels. Or maybe the jaquard (or both). We have these ugly, ratty dark green towels that my hubby loves for our ensuite. The 90's want their towels back so I need to get new ones. I love the taupe taped drum shades you chose . We could use a pair for our bedroom. 1 of our shades has developed some strange marks & a rusty stain??? As they are white & super inexpensive ( read not all that well contructed)I'm afraid to try any in depth cleaning on them.
I like everything about your guest room. I wish the relatives we visit(& stay with) had guest rooms like that! The color scheme is both warm & relaxing.
This would give me the chance to redo my bathroom since i'm in the process of trying to redo it as the money comes. I would love to get some new towels and shower curtain. Also, new glass shelving since the ones in there are to big = )
i've shared the contest to all my fb friends too =)
Gorgeous! Gorgeous! Gorgeous!!!
I love every single thing!! And that ceiling medallion and chandy!!! Oh.Em.Gee!!
So beautiful!!!

You did a great job! The yellows and golds mixed with the blues give it an old fashioned look. I love it!

AWESOME! That room is so pulled together and I love everything but I think what impresses me most is the painted rug.
Tweeted about this giveaway!
I pinned this – I love how you use different prints, but still get a unified look. LOVE the "rug."
Gorgeous…I can't believe the floor is painted. What type of paint do you use to make it durable…the do you seal or polyurethane it?
Wow! I'd heard of painting subflooring before, but never with such amazing results. If you do end up putting flooring over it (seems like kind of a shame) it's going to be a big surprise for whoever ends up redoing those floors next.
What a terrific giveaway! You did a great job. Very warm and cozy.
I'm actually already in the process of redoing my bedroom. I would love the amboy curtain rod and some curtain ring clips. I'm doing a french theme so I think some of the fleur de lis accessories would be nice, and maybe a few items to spruce up the adjoining bathroom like a new shelf to hold towels.
How gorgeous! The colors are wonderful and I LOVE the painted "rug". Beautifully decorated all around!
the rug, the colors, and the rub n buffed chandelier are the best parts! fabulous makeover!
loving the ashwood chest on walmart's website. looks so fancy!
That chandelier is amazing. I love LOVE LOVE this room. You did such an amazing job!!

I love the color combination! Its perfect! The room is styled really pretty too. I really love the painted floor but I prefer area rugs over carpet. I think you should also add a nice luggage rack (replace the small wood char). I have one in my guest room and guests love it. And you could use a little more art on the walls. Overall its a beautiful room and you did an awesome job!
Thanks so much everyone! Kendra – the room isn't nearly completed. The walls are blank until I move furniture around and decide on final placement. I'd love to do a luggage rack too and have been searching for something and I also like to include a special gift basket for guests too – those things are coming as well as an area rug on top of the painted floor when stepping out of the bed. 😉
I actually said "woah!!" when I saw that. Amazin and beautiful! http://bellesbazaar-heather.blogspot.com

I love your choice of wall color! The room looks amazing!
What a transformation! All of your hard work really paid off. I like the painted floors and the little sitting area. If I had $100 to spend on BHG products I'd either get the autumn lane kitchen cart or the 10-piece stainless steel cookware.
Love the owl accent and light aqua color throughout! I can't believe what a steal you got many of the furniture items for and yet everything looks so classy and put together! I love being thrifty!

Love the new look. I especially love all the flea market additions, that is really my style. Never thought of using a glass insulator as a votive candle holder.
Your guest room is so pretty and welcoming. Love the colors you used…
Roeshel!! I love this room! I would make excuses just to come visit so I could stay in it! The orange chairs look so perfect with the rest of the decor – and that painted rug! Sigh! You did such a wonderful job!
I went to the BHG product site over at Walmart–the throw pillows are so pretty, and the bedding, but I would pick a patio set as we are in need of one since we moved and we left our old one when we sold our home…
Your guest room is awesome! I'm always inspired by other people, especially when you see what you paid and how much of it was thrifted!!

I'm in love with the Ashwood bed and the Willow Mountain coffee table.
We need a coffee table, too… someone just gave us coffee table books as a house-warming gift 😉

I do love your makeover – and for such little money! Thanks for the chance! alicedemskehansen at gmail.com
I love their outdoor furniture at walmart.com. The Better Homes and Gardens Lake Island 3-Piece Bistro set is so cute – thanks! alicedemskehansen at gmail.com
Beautiful! Some people just have an eye for design, and you and your hubby have definitely got it. I love the color of the walls, trim, and the decor!

I love how the room turned out. The colors are gorgeous. I've seen so many blue and white, and blue and grey rooms lately; this one was very refreshing with the different colored accents.

I really like all of the grean patio furniture, but I could use a tv stand, or the fire pit, ohhh the gardens citrus blossums daybed bedding is nice too. Slipcovers! Candle holders! Like the "How To" books also. I'd love to win about 10 of these. HAHAHAHA!!!
Wow – what a great transformation. I really love the colors. One of my favorite features are those aqua lamps – envy!! Nice job!
They have so many cute choices, but one thing I've been eying is the BHG Citrus Scroll decorative pillow. WOuld be great in my living room!
oh my goodness – this looks so great! the colors work just right and the painted rug is awesome!
SHUT UP!!!!!! That painted-on-the-floor rug is off-the-hook, crazy AWESOME! Wow…I'm just floored (har har). Amazing job…thanks for sharing!

I love it all! I love the floor the most! And those chairs are an amazing score! Plus, the fluffy cat makes it really feel like a home.
Love it! The color scheme is great!
I love repurposing items…and adding a little refresh…it really is a matter of using your imagination.
I think your room turned out great! and that rug -way cool! Thanks for inspiring us.
WOW! I had to do a double-take when you said "painted" floor. That's great. You did a wonderful job on everything.
I can't believe that you painted the floor "rug". In the pictures it looks like the real deal. The whole room is gorgeous and I love the color that the two arm chairs add, also nice to give visitors a place to sit other than the bed.

I am BLOWN AWAY! You are welcome to come visit me anytime and help me cozy up this 1860 built home of ours.
I struggle with maintaining the character of this aged home with my style. Its an ongoing challenge.
I cant believe those painted floors. My heart is oozing with all kinds of happiness over this makeover!
Great job. I love those chairs the most. Where did you find them for $25?
This is just gorgeous!!!! You did such an amazing job on everything and that floor!! Oh you are my inspiration! I am painting my floor in our bonus room so this came at a perfect time. Love the colors and would love to stay in a room like this. 🙂
xoxo
WOW! Can I be a guest please? The room is beautiful, relaxing and comfortable….what more could a guest want? I can't get over those painted floors…you are very talented. Kudos to you.
The room looks so classy! I love your bed and the colors.
Love what you did with the room! I wouldn't have thought that I'd like the colors but they're beautiful.
I'd very possibly get 2 sets of Better Homes and Gardens Autumn Lane Windsor Chairs. Our kitchen chairs are in the process of falling apart.

Gorgeous transformation! I love the colors you used and love how your moodboard came to life! The painted rug is outstanding! Incredible room on an incredible budget! Thanks for sharing and for hosting this awesome giveaway.
It's so beautiful; I'm using the same blue in my Italiate country living room revamp. I don't usually care for orange, but what a gorgeous pop it makes with those chairs.
I am really in love with the BHG collection — the designs are fantastic! I'd choose one of their great outdoor furniture pieces…or maybe the chenille panels (what a great value!
I'm in LOVE with the squishy cozy bed and those dang tufted wing back chairs… ahhhh, they're amazing. Beautiful job!!!

I really think this will be what we do with some rooms in our house & seeing your great results calms a lot of my worries about it looking tacky. I've bookmarked all your posts on your floors. Thank you so much for sharing the details!
Wow. I love that floor! What a great, money saving DIY idea.

I think this room makeover is INCREDIBLE! i absolutely adore it. it's funny actually because i have those exact same wingback chairs in the exact same color in my current guest room, which is also getting a bit of a makeover! great minds obviously think alike! although i can't paint the floor 🙁 so you definitely win big there!

I saw your room on The Shabby Chic Cottage today and my eyes almost fell out of my head! There, in all their former (in my hands) glory, were my in-laws’ wing chairs! Same color, same tufted backs, same legs same veloury fabric! They look fantastic in your color palette! When my hubby and I inherited them, the first thing I had to do was to get one of them recovered. That was 20 years ago and the downstairs cat has long since shredded the back. Point is, though, that they are very well made, vintage chairs and still have a classic charm. Thanks for sharing how great they would have looked if I had left well enough alone! Love that room! Great job!
