In case you don’t remember what this room looked like before…..well, be ready for a BIG change. If you’re a new reader, you will not know that this all started with a yardsale find…yes, the hazards of yardsaling, when I found a great looking black and white damask king comforter set for $15. That got the ball rolling. There was really nothing wrong with this room, it was comfortable, the colors were pretty, but let’s face it…it was a little granny. I had just used all the bedding and leftover stuff I had in here when we moved in to make it a decent guestroom, but deep down, I wanted CHANGE. And change I got! Feast your eyes on the new beachy glam guestroom.
Thank you all for being such wonderful friends and coming by to spend time with me. That makes my day!

Rhoda,
I love the room. I can tell that you put a lot of time, effort and thought into it. I loved it even more when I was reading through your comments and someone mentioned that this is your spot to go to for devotional time. So special. Your blog and the things you write about inspire me.

Wow Rhoda! You did an amazing job on that room. It is stunning!!
Patricia says
WOW!
I have been following along for awhile now and actually read your entire blog and all I can do is say “wow” you amaze me to the point of being silenced and that rarely happens!
Thanks too for the color of the room as we have some gray fixtures in our bathroom and I was looking for a coordinating color for a seashore inspired bathroom! Whenever I get around to actually doing it!
All the best

Rhoda
OK! Are you renting out the guestroom for tired, tired mothers who just need a day or two of downtime with a good book in a super cool room (love the lampshade!!)/????
Please book me for next week…thanks!

Rhoda…this is nothing short of AMAZING! And to think you did it on such a budget. To look at it…the last thing you would ever say is “budget”!! It’s glorious. I love the little dogs with the zebra plates behind them, and the display with the mirrors…and the zebra bench…oh heck I love it all!!!

Looks fabulous Rho! I am glad you found a way to make Rainwashed work for you. We love it in our Master bedroom. Love that first shot you posted best of all…the glammed-out rug and snazzy zebra fabric! And I can appreciate the bargain you snagged with that coverlet, as I bought that for my daughter!
