sweet dreams

check out what i have been working on for the past few weeks:

this is the 'before' (yay for remembering to take this picture!):

and this is the 'after':

i couldn't be happier with the outcome of this bed.  the moment i bought it, i envisioned painting it yellow and the color came out perfect. i "staged" my dining room (thanks rach, for letting me use your throw pillow and blow up mattress!) to get the full effect of how the bed would looked completely finished. i loved the yellow against my deep brown wall!

i think this bed could work for any room. pair with some navy and grey for a little boy's room, or with coral pink for a sweet, little girl's room (i definitely contemplated this for P, but i've got other plans on the horizon for her new bed). but my favorite option is doing it up using greys and whites for a chic master or guest room. that color combo is all the rage right now and i have jumped on the bandwagon! i don't have much yellow in my house, but that may be changing soon:)

i love it so much, that i hate to part with it, but there is just no room for a full size bed in my house at this time.so here is your chance to make this amazing transformation of a bed YOURS! yep, i'm selling it:)
