Mirror Mirror on the Wall 2

Heya Nesters!  Yesterdays post was all about the bargain leaning floor mirror that I scored at Walmart. That wasn't where the bargains ended for this this gal. Oh no, I hit the jackpot at The Christmas Tree Shop.  Every bedroom design image that sticks in my brain is one that involves mirrors above or behind matching nightstand lamps. 

DIY Project: Reveal of Lexie's Night Stand

Heya Nesters! I have an exciting reveal for you guys today. I've been waiting with bated breath to grab the final reveal shots of this oldie but goodies.  Check out the before posts right here and here. So without further ado, lets take a look at the journey.

It sure was a humble beginning.  The piece is nice, however, I had visions of its potential grandeur.

Headboard Doubts

I've said before that I've been feeling like a bad Decor Mommy to my Bedroom because I've been completely neglecting it. When I was living in my old apartment, my bedroom was the only thing I had all to myself and I truly put all my efforts into making it a luxurious space for me to relax {in an otherwise tumultuous household}. So, now that I'm in a place all to myself and have the freedom of having guests over, I've been focusing my efforts on having a space where my visitors will be comfortable {AKA the living room}and thus my bedroom decor gets tossed by the wayside.  *sigh*

But I'm tired of walking into a bedroom that looks like a catch-all. I want my sanctuary back...

Boudior Envy

Lately, I've been so focused on my living room decor that I've really been leaving my bedroom in the dust. I'm a little bit stumped as to how I want to set it up, and where I want to place images. {I'm still looking for the right Damask Wallpaper!}  So, I decided to look for a little inspiration to help me on my way.

One Night Stand

Heya Nesters! I am back with you to bring you the final reveal of my two dollar yard sale nightstand! When I picked it up, it was already primed just waiting for some spray paint.

Not too shabby, eh? So I added about 3 even coats of hi-gloss white by Krylon. Between each coat I let it sit for about 24 hours. I did add one last good coat to the top to make sure that it was a smooth, solid surface, ready to put up with whatever I toss at it... literally and figuratively. And now it's being put to good use....

It's perfect to hold my bedside knitting or my most recent read.

Doesn't the mismatched nightstand duo look adorable?

The bedroom is still a work in progress, but this is a good start!
