Color Drenching Mistake?

Pin It

I did it! I followed the color drenching trend. Was I nervous? Yup. Totally. But, honestly I absolutely love it!

A quick view of the bedroom when we moved in.

This bedroom has a very unique cabinet at the top of the wall. Originally had sliding doors and pendant lights (which I removed).

First update during the first year of living at this #1951renovation.

This shows a picture of how that space was converted. I have a had time taking pictures of it but tearing the whole box down would have meant major wall repair!

  

Five years later I decided to do another update as some of the walls were losing top layer of plaster. Plus I really wanted to take the bedroom to another level by adding crown moulding, wallpaper a focal point wall, fine tune the baseboards (that had never been finished in 71 years). More importantly I really wanted to try color drenching!

I sure love to paint!

Adding crown moulding. 

Wallpaper time! Update, this wallpaper was very poor adhesion! Love the design and pattern but have had nothing but problems with it staying so I used spray adhesive. Probably not recommended by most professionals but it worked!

After adding crown moulding, peel and stick wallpaper, paint and baseboards. Searching for a new quilt but for now...is it final? Well, we shall see.

I was searching for some old wood shutters to create a new headboard. After weeks of looking I painted our current headboard and took this wood window frame, painted it same color as wall, and hung over bed. It was free and I love it honestly!
