Stenciling A Bedroom Wall: a house log

Even though we have been embracing a clean-lined and colorful aesthetic lately, we can certainly appreciate all sorts of styles. And we have still got a soft spot for the warm, layered neutrals that we filled our first house with. So when Rhoda sent over this redo of her sister Renee’s room, it was like a shot of wow to a part of our design brain that we hadn’t exercised in a while. And we kinda want to curl up in what looks like a Especially comfortable bed. Here is Rhoda’s letter:

Hi, The house team! Simply hoped to share my latest project: a redo of my sister’s bedroom suite. It is a big space that had not been touched since 1999, so it was in dire need of an update.

Here is the new view walking into the room now. That stenciled wall simply makes it, I think! My sister and I worked on it together.

She has strong taste and had already chose on the colors she hoped for the room, as well as the start to the fabrics. She simply asked me for some assist picking out the rest of the fabrics, rugs, artwork, accessories, lamps, and drapes. It was truly lively to put our heads together.

She already had these pleasant wingback chairs, so instead of buying new, we opted to have them recovered by a local upholsterer and he did a strong job.

We had so much lively putting this room together and I hope you enjoy it as much as we do. My sister feels like she’s in a brand new place now. Thanks for the look! – xoxo, Rhoda

Is not it crazy to scroll up to that first shot and see how much it has changed? Rhoda’s got a ton of extra photos and info about the makeover on her journal, so head on over if you want to soak up some more. She even has a peek into the equally swanked up bathroom and sitting room over there. But while you are here, let us play the what is-your-go-to-part game. I am truly digging the recovered chairs and Sherry’s all sorts of in love with that plush striped rug.
