It’s done. ย The guest room is now available. ย Come on down!
I had this idea that I blogged about here.
I was totally prepared, to build a headboard and then I spotted one on FB. ย I bought it site unseen. ย It was rough and a little dirty.
I bought it, cleaned it, painted it (dry brushed) and I sealed it.
I gathered all my art. The pieces collected over time.
The ones that caught my eye at tag sales.
Don’t you just love this little guy ๐
Every room needs one or two, globes.
One of my favorite photos of my grandsons (above).
Dry-brushed chair here.
The rug, from Ikea.
This is the second set of suitcases that I collected for this room.
I sold the other ones, they didn’t make the cut.
It was love at first site when I spotted this steamboat!
I think it was more about the color, than the boat.
I was running out of art, when I remembered this chalkboard.
Collected treasures all in one room.
Mr. Refresh walked in and said – this is what I’m talking about!
I want every room to look like this!
(I wasn’t sure if he was talking about the way it was decorated or that he could see the floor.)
Murphy likes it too!

You’ve pulled a great mix of elements together with such flair. Love everything about your guest room!
I just love it, Debbie! Love the whole vibe of it! I’m going to reveal my guest room in a couple of weeks–right now we’re waiting for the floors to dry.
I LOVE THIS ROOM!! I want to make my bedroom look like this! But I need to know where u got the suitcases and for how much!?
Thanks Jess, the suitcases were collected over time from various thrifts shop. No more that $20 each. Thanks!
I love it all Debbie! Beautiful collections!
Thank Karah! Love the color of you door ๐
Definitely an excellent choice for linking up at Throwback Thursday. It’s a beautiful creative room redo.
Thanks Bliss, so happy to join in the party!
Love the bedroom decor. What color/paint brand did you use to paint the chest of drawers?
I love the room and all the unique person touches. But what really got me was I thought you stole my dog! My doodle, Cody looks just like Murphy’s twin.
I will tell Murphy you have her twin ๐
Debbie this room is gorgeous! I love every little touch – the globes, the art, the guitar, the suitcases. Wow – what a fantastic job. I’ll pack my bags now. lol Pinning!! xo

Is Murphy a Bedlington Terrier? (I love the room!)
Thanks Ann, Murphy is a labradoodle ๐
What a fantastic collected eclectic guest room! I love it!
Debbie, I love this room! Any guest would feel right at home staying here. It feel so warm and welcoming and like you said…collected.
I love the art, globes, suitcases….they all work so well together to create a very cozy space. And I can tell how much love went into creating this room…that’s the most important part..that anyone who stays here will feel like they are getting a big hug from you.
Great job! I love the suitcases and globes.

Debbie,
The room looks outstanding…luv that neat looking headboard. Is that cute canvas of your grandsons, the one that you won at my blog? By the way…are you going to the Country Living Show or The Chapel Market? I am going to both and would love to meet up with you, if you are there.
Blessings,
Linda

You just inspired me to get going on our guest room Debbie. So many cute ideas. I am a suitcase lover too. I have one of my Mom’s old make up ones from the 30’s, and I am working on that now. Unfortunately, in college I wrote my dorm # on it with my name in marker-lol. Apparently I thought it was a good idea @ the time -eek!!
Hi Debbie! What a fantastic room and the color combination is wonderful. I especially LOVE the suitcase side table! Thanks for sharing the beautiful inspiration and pinning! Have a happy Tuesday!
Wow! It looks amazing. The bed looks very inviting…obviously that adorable Murphy likes it. ๐ You’ve done a beautiful job on all of it.

P.S. Just a thought ~ have you seen the headboards that Holly over at http://downtoearthstyle.blogspot.com/ has made with the shelves added?
Looks fabulous, Debbie! So inviting! Great job, friend.
Thank you!
I can’t wait to come stay in here! This is one of my FAV things you have done.
Good job! I love the stack of suitcases. I have some myself — great for stylish storage.
This room is rockin and rollin! Love it Deb.
It turned out great, and I love that headboard! Night night Murphy.
Lovely room, but , for me, one thing is mixing….a bedside lamp for reading….just saying…
Thanks Kathy, I have something in mind for that too ๐
You’ve done a wonderful job, it’s a room full of individual pieces and great colours. I love those suitcases and the pops of turquoise.
And I like it, too. Great job. Great headboard and Murphy looks so comfy.
Thanks Kim, Murphy is very happy ๐
Oh I just LOVE this room Debbie! It looks so warm and inviting and the guitar on the wall is FABULOUS! Well done!
Vanessa
Thank you! The guitar is one of my favorite things too! My son plays ๐
It looks fabulous! I love all of the collections.
Thank you Elizabeth ๐
It looks so warm and inviting! And how awesome that you found a great headboard and didn’t have to start from scratch. I love it.
Thanks Carrie, it was a great find ๐
I agree w/ Mr Refresh…. That’s what I’m talking about. It is gorgeous Debbie. Luv, LUV the headboard.
Hugs, Gee
You’re so sweet! Thank you!
