Guest Bedroom Renovation

Here's a little video of me and the "husbear" renovating our Guest Bedroom. We found the GREATEST wood planks (running horizontally) on the walls in the closet in this room, so we figured it MUST be under the drywall in the bedroom itself too. A little dancing, a lot of dust and sho' nuff! We uncovered a wall of wood paneling in perfect condition! In addition to ripping out drywall, we also ripped out carpet, refinished the wood flooring that was under the carpet, added new trim, and painted. We're going for a very cozy, coastal vibe in this room.
Enjoy the show!
PS...The yellow flowers in the window sill were a birthday present. :-)

Did you only rip out the one wall to put in the wood paneling? It looks fabulous!

We ripped out the drywall from the one wall to EXPOSE the wood paneling. What a great discovery huh? :-)

Now that was cool! I loved seeing it all being done. And yes, ya'll are just the cutest. I can't wait to see more. You obviously both have a wonderful vision for doing projects like this.

I love it...did you do that video on a camera video or a fancier version? I'd love to try that sometime.

That is so freakin' awesome! And you reclaimed your trim and baseboards with the drywall removal. That dresser is to die for, and the crystal door knobs.
Fantabulous!
