We finally committed to switching the rooms in our house, our "hang out" room became the bedroom, and the bedroom became the "hang out" room. The new bedroom is bigger and has a much bigger closet which is easier for sharing. :)
Step One: Pick a Paint Color
My inspiration for the paint color came from this UK paint advertisement.
Step Two:
Buy a Vintage Mid Century Dresser.
I wanted a dresser with lots of drawers and I found the perfect Johnson Carper lowboy dresser at a shop in Romeo. Mine has a mirror attached with this great geometric cutout at the top. Let me tell you, it was love at first sight.
Plus, look how cute the label is:
I'd also love to find this piece someday, so we could have a matching set.
Step Three:
Buy Matching Mid Century Nightstands. I got these at Fred's Unique Furniture in Warren. Lots of junk there, but if you are willing to search, you can find some great pieces. Craigslist has been my best friend lately, with lots of great mid century pieces posted.
Step Four: Rent a U-Haul and get the queen size mattress from Nick's parents house. Not the most glamorous step, but a very necessary one!
That's all I will reveal for now, there are more steps (including bed shopping!) to come...
