Decorating Our Guest Room on A Budget

We are enjoying our guest room these days... maybe even a tad envious when we glimpse the guest room and then walk into our unfinished master bedroom... but we are so thankful it is ready to host guests at a moments notice. Here is our Budget Breakdown for the guest room and HOW we got that look!

• Pallet Headboard: FREE! This was the first project Ty and I did together. Who knew it was foreshadowing many DIY projects to come!
• Bedding: The White Duvet with the Green trim I bought in college. It can still be found here. The quilt was a steal at TJ Maxx/Home Goods for only $49. It is made my Cynthia Rowley.
• Pillows: The Euro Shams are from PB's Palampore Bedding Collection. These cost a pretty penny at $49 each, but when debating over making my own shams out of my FIRST CHOICE of fabric... Schumacher's Chaing Mai in Aquamarine at $100plus/yard...these were definitely the cheaper of the two options; Yellow Pillows: Homemade from our previous guest room in the Sloan Road House; Coral Damask Pillow: This was a GREAT Etsy find. Only $14 on clearance.
• Matching Glass Lamps: Also on CLEARANCE for $29 each at TJ/HG

Reading Nook: 

• Yellow Chair: From my childhood, FREE (thanks Ma!)
• Tahari Yellow Baskets for Wall Art: $45 from TJ Maxx/Home Goods
• White Fluffy Pillow: Another TJ Maxx/Home Goods find for $45
• Curtains: White Ritva Curtains from Ikea (4); two pair for $24.99 each
• Night stands and side table: all previously owned $0

and last but not least...

Crystal Knobs to update existing side table: $7

Grand TOTAL: $400 on the nose 

(I included tax to get this pretty number) 

We also plan on changing out the light fixture at some point too!
