One Room Challenge: Week 4 – Paint Me Like One of Your French Girls

Newly painted green cabinets

One Room Challenge: Week 2 – Demolition Derby

This post was sponsored by Rustoleum and JOANN Fabrics and Crafts. All opinions are mine! I changed up nearly everything in our bedroom. The bed, the bedding, and I even painted a new mural behind the bed. It looked great, but the nightstands needed to go. The previous nightstands were a big...
