So, here is what the finished product looks like. And the best part is that Bethany actually likes it. She said it looks different than she imagined. That she was surprised it was so simple. And that she really, REALLY liked it.
It was nice to already have a bedroom set to build around. The IKEA Malm bed and dresser set a contemporary flavor for the room without a lot of effort. The challenge was finding a color pallet that would blend the tan wall, the black chair and Sunny's painting for a "client" who isn't crazy about earth tones. The layers of light blue help keep it "happy."
As for living my life as a designer, though I love the room and was glad to do it, there is NO WAY I would ever want to do this full time. Way, way too much shopping.
