Chalkboard Pot (And a Bedroom Makeover Sneak Peek)

Posted on by

Our bedroom renovation is moving along quite nicely. We painted the walls a medium gray color and we rearranged our furniture so that our bed no longer covers the bay windows. Despite the darker wall color, the room actually feels brighter and roomier. Today they’re starting on the flooring. Bye-bye carpet!

The only addition to the room so far is a large snake plant. I painted the pot with some of the leftover chalkboard paint from the table in our living room, so now Jenna has a favorite corner in the room – one she can decorate herself.

Luckily, we’re starting with furniture that we really like, so our plan involves removing the carpet, painting and adding some accessories.

Here are a few things that will be staying in our room:

I’ve started collecting ideas for the new pieces we’ll need, and we’ve already chosen a paint color: Martha Stewart Cement Gray. I know, GRAY, we’re really going out on a limb! Here are a few other items of inspiration for the final decor:
