Welcome back to Week 3 of the $100 Room Challenge-Guest bedroom makeover.

The $100 Room Challenge

The $100 Room Challenge is a bi-yearly challenge that is created by Erin from Lemons, Lavender, and Laundry. A group of bloggers have to completely transform a room but must not spend more than $100. This small budget demands creativity, DIY projects, and bargain shopping.

I got a lot of work done this week. The room that I am making over is at our lake house. The house is about a 45-minute drive from where I live. So far, I have worked a total of 5 separate days at the house.

Inspiration for Guest Bedroom

 

I love vintage pieces and I am going for a vintage look for this room.

Projects

Painted the bed black.

I would love to have a new bed and I thought about looking for one at the Thrift Store. After looking at this bed, I knew I could save budget money by painting the existing bed. I am so glad that I did.

First, I want to tell you that the floors in the lake house are stained concrete floors. I get questions about the floors. There is a tutorial for the floors here.

Painted the bed black

I tried Fusion Mineral Paint for the first time and I am very impressed with it. You do not have to use a topcoat with this paint. The coverage is amazing.

Pillows

DIY No Sew Valance

Pillows were made for the bed.

While thrifting, I found an old valance and the material will be perfect for the look that I am going for. I also used some thrifted material for pillows. You can see the tutorial for the pillows in this post.

Old Clock

I painted an thrifted clock.

Since I need some old vintage pieces to style the room, I used Rub and Buff on a thrifted clock.

Purchased an old Table

$100 Room Challange-guest bedroom

The old table came from a Thrift Store. I thought I would probably have to paint the table because of the damage. My table cleaned up beautifully and I didn’t have to paint it. It is gorgeous but you have to wait until next week to see it styled.

Wall Treatment

I am working on a wall treatment this week and finishing styling the room.

Recovered Chair

The chair was finished this week. Check back next week to see the final room reveal.

    You have gotten so much done! I have heard great things about the Fusion paint but haven’t tried it myself yet. The bed looks awesome black.
