Home Away From Home

We have a guestroom downstairs, right off our family room. It's been pretty ho-hum since we moved in. It had hand-me down sheets (meaning my mother-in-law gave them to us unused!) and a cheap bedding set I picked up. Looking back it seemed a bit juvenile. See below it's sad state:

 
And here's it now! I bought a new (crisp & clean) white down alternative comforter, white (crisp & clean again!) sheets and a charcoal gray bed skirt. I can't find the link for that but all I can say is upgrade! I got everything for super cheap because of coupons and sales!
 
 

 
 
The flowers on the night stand I found at TJ Maxx ($14!) and the 2 pillow shams too ($12 each). The throw pillow is from Target. To finish up this room I want to spray paint the lamp base a glossy white and find a more contemporary lamp shade. In addition, I want to get wall art for above the bed. But for now, I'm content with how the project has started!
