Creating A Coastal Room: Room DIY

Blue & White. Shabby Chic & Seaside Chic decor. Hydrangea bouquets & silver knobs. All sound blissfully divine?

Surely they all are! These elements, along with others are a few of the components that went into converting our sun room into a  fourth bedroom.

The room underwent a total transformation--everything from ripping out the floor {replacing it with a white wash lament}to painting the walls {Benjamin Moore, Knitting Needle Gray}& swapping the couch out for an Ikea coastal daybed.

No matter what room in your home you are wanting to transform--deciding on a style & color scheme is the way to go.

Personally, my taste revolves around a little bit of shabby chic, a touch of a beach-y vibe, simple yet elegant accents--& always bright color combinations. What I really find to work in home decorating is mixing fancy/expensive items in with simpler/ less expensive elements. This way, your room never looks over-done, but never under dressed.
