home tour: guest bedroom

the guest bedroom, aka my sister's room, is almost exactly the same as it was in our previous home.  i used most of the same furniture and decor as in our previous home.

this room is mostly used by my sister or the kids when they visit, so that's why i call it my sister's room. the bed in the room is the same bed she had when we were growing up.  i added a few touches of things that she likes throughout the room.

the guest bedroom is located towards the back of the house, because we wanted our guests to have a nice view of the backyard.


for now it has a full size bed, but eventually when we get a new bed for the master, the guest bedroom will have a queen.


the bedding is from Target.  i got it on clearance a long time ago.  it works well for now, but isn't my favorite look anymore.



at our previous home, the bedroom was lavender.  this time we kept it more neutral with the same gray as in our living room and kitchen area.


on the nightstand is a photo of my little grams.  we miss her a lot and i wanted a picture of her somewhere in the house.


we moved the TV that was in our bedroom into this room and added a different TV stand than was in our old house.

the flowers next to the TV are light up.  my sister has some in her home, so i thought they would be a good addition to the guest bedroom.


the closet doors just got installed recently.  they ended up being a bit small for the opening but we are going to just try to make it work.  they still have to be painted and need knobs to be able to open them!

things that still need to be done:


  • paint doors and trim
  • add knobs to closet doors
  • shorten blinds
  • headboard
  • dimmer for lights
  • art
  • new bedding and curtains
  • eventually queen sized bed
