Pottery Barn Inspired – Bedroom Makeover
refreshrestyle.com
My bedroom makeover began with this issue of Pottery Barn
I knew I had a sheer swag
there was one time in my life when several of my windows had their swag on.
Sometimes I’m glad that I keep stuff, like swag.

I placed a basket on top of an ottoman, layered a wooden tray, with a few old books at the end of the bed and added a corbel. I wanted to recreate a natural look like the one in the photo using things from around the house.

I took photos from different angles, turned the lights off and opened the blinds trying to get the lighting just right.

I guess it took me a little too long.

Miss Murphy was ready for a nap.
And that’s how the
Murphy Bed
edition evolved.

I’m sharing my bedroom makeover at Debbiedoo’s Magazine Copycat Party
I hope you join us this week for the rest of Spring’tacular!

March 12, 2012 at 3:09 amThis post is just so darn cute from the photos to the clever writing. I love how you added text to your photos to make them look SO MUCH like the Pottery Barn catalog photo. Your dog is adorable too and love how you edited the photo text to adapt to him being in the picture.

Again, you knock my socks off lady. You are so dang talented your room surpasses PB.
What a dreamy space to lay your head at night.
Mr. Fresh sure is lucky to have you around to make things perfect 😉
PS-And Murphy too, to get to snooze on that beauty!!
