The Guestroom is Finished!

We finished the guest room! The mismatched molding has been replaced, the quarter round shoe molding was added around the room, and then all the trim was patched and painted with a fresh coat of white paint.  Mike added the blades to the fan, we added a rug to the floor and then brought the furniture back in.

The lamp on the dresser finally has an outlet behind it and can now be plugged in without an extension cord.  I added a large basket to hold extra pillows and throws since we have very little storage in here.  Seating is limited and tight, so I brought up a floor pillow for someone to use (or Georgia as is more often the case).  The room still needs some wall decor and curtains, but that is being postponed until after the office is finished - why bother when it's about to be filled floor-to-ceiling with boxes? 

Just to recap, here's what we did to make this outdated pocket of pink a cozy and serene nook:  we added a light in the closet with a switch, repaired the plaster in the closet and painted everything bone white, replaced the old roller shade with white blinds, added a ceiling fan and rewired the light switch, added a new outlet, patched all of the cracks in the walls and ceiling, painted the walls hollingsworth green, painted the ceiling a palladian blue tint, removed the carpet and carpet pad, replaced the mismatched molding, added shoe molding and touched up all the trim.
