Bedroom haven


Resene PaintsAfter graduating from her Interior Design course, Danilyn decided to put her learning to the test by renovating her bedroom. This home has always been a haven for her since she began College. The house was built in the early 1900s so needless to say style is not one of this home's strongest attributes. This was the perfect opportunity to renovate and also fulfil one of her dreams of having a stylish room (with the permission of two very reluctant parents)!

Starting with a $50 budget, Danilyn purchased two cushions, curtains and a lounge suite all for under $30 at a local second hand store. She removed everything out of her room including the outdated carpet, revealing the beautiful wooden floor.

She sanded down the windows and painted them and the walls with Resene Alabaster. What her room then needed was colour and character! She wanted to mix her taste of both country and contemporary into the interior. She purchased three testpots - Resene Antidote, Resene Voila and Resene Vin Rouge, cut out two different patterns for her custom wallpaper, traced it on to the wall then carefully handpainted the pattern. She furnished the room with items purchased from the second hand store, handmade cushions and wall prints designed by her and some items from the house.

Now she has a beautiful room to come home to.
