Home away from Home

So .. I am a mad woman .. I am photographing and writing a blog post about my home decor adventures, when I am leaving for a month long adventure to America this evening, and my packing isn’t completed … go figure – This is the definition of procrastination! But … keep your eyes out folks .. as I will be blogging my entire adventure! SAY WHATT??! Travel blog time is BACK!

But first, since my guest room is all made up, and ready for the house sitter who will call our home her own for the next few weeks, I thought .. why not post the restyle of that space 😉 haha!

So here is the guest room when we purchased it, which actually looks reasonably spacious here, but that bed was strangely very short! haha! There isn’t a lot of space to work with in here.

I wanted the guest room to be a sanctuary for my guests, so that they feel like they have all the comforts of home, in this little space! The bed we already owned. It was silver! So I spray painted it with Rust-Oleum Spray paint! AMAZING! Highly recommend!

You may have seen my moodboard post HERE

So you will know the exact vibe I was going for in this space. So here is the finished product.
