Hallie’s Room Refresh

We thought it would be fun to give Hallie’s room a little refresh while we are all penned up in the house. Since we are trying to lie low during this whole virus debacle due to my health issues, we thought we would just use things that we have on hand to refresh her space, that way we wouldn’t need to go to the store. Here is a little “before” shot…

Luckily we had these extra peel and stick boards from Timber Chic. They were leftovers from our last project that we used them for. These are the color “coastal white” in size 5″.

Hallie doesn’t really love change, so it was tough for her to imagine how the final design would look, but she was up for a little room mix up/refresh. Her room was already really cute, but this gave us something fun to do together!

We thought that we would get rid of her valances that we had made, but we loved them so much with the wood wall that we kept them. You can see the last refresh that we did in her room, here, along with a diy valance tutorial.

The Timber Chic boards are super easy to apply! We used them in our master bedroom, our master closet, and in a room makeover that we did for our associate pastor’s daughters room. We also hung the beds from the ceiling in the makeover room. I’m still amazed! If you haven’t seen it, you can find it, here.

Some of the questions that I receive about these Timber Chic boards are:

  1. Do they fall off once you apply them? Absolutely not, they stick like mad!
  2. Will they ruin your wall if you want to take them off some day? I’m not sure because I’ve never taken mine off, but they do stick really well, so I’m guessing it would be quite the process to take them down. If a change would ever be desired, they could always be painted a different color.
  3. What color and size do you have? Mine are the color “coastal white” in size 5″ width.
  4. Can they be cut? Yes, they can be cut just like any other board. They actually need to be cut to go around windows, edges of the wall, outlets, etc.
  5. Are they easy to apply? Yes…one of the easiest wall treatments that we’ve ever done.
  6. Do they come precut? Yes, they come precut in various sizes and you just make the pattern that you would like with the various colors and sizes as you apply the boards.

We made these shelves for Hallie’s wall years ago. I love how easy and budget friendly they are!

We made this “mood board” with some cork board and an old frame. Hallie painted it and used 100 grit sandpaper to distress it a little and then we cut the cork board to fit inside the frame. We used a heavy duty staple gun to add fabric to the cork board and then stapled the cork into the back side of the frame to hold it in place in the frame. It’s such a fun place for her to add things that she loves! A tip for budget friendly cork board is to find an old one at a thrift store and just cut it up for your project. That’s what I do every time we make these, and we’ve made several.

This sign was made by Hampton Repurposed Wood. It was something that Hallie chose a while ago. I love the rustic, reclaimed wood signs that Sandy makes! We also decided to go without a rug for now. It may be something that we add in the future, but for now, we love the simplicity of no rug.

I would love to hear in the comments what you think of Hallie’s little room refresh that we did. It was a fun project to tackle together!

    Room was beautiful before but I absolutely love the new accent wall. Was wondering if you have to remove baseboards and crown moulding before applying?

    I love Hallie’s room refresh…. especially since you used items you already had. I love your creativity and spirit! I used to work close to where you live. It is beautiful there. I’m hoping you land process goes well… stunning views from there.

    That’s a fun accent wall! I love that you kept the valences. They really make the room.

    It looks so good! I’m thinking of doing a little refresh on my kids rooms while we are self distancing. A nice cleaned out, refreshed room might be nice for them right now!

    Wow Natalie. I think the refresh is perfect for your young lady, Hallie. The Coastal White kept the space still bright & cheery. I think I may try this in a bathroom….something on a smaller scale first. If “I” was still a whipper snapper I’d surely love spending time in there. Great Refresh!!!

    Love the wood wall, impressive how it warms the room up. I would keep the valances too, they look great with the wood. The bedding just adds to the cozy factor!!

    The wall really gave the room depth. I agree with everyone…the room was already beautiful but the wood planks really added to it in a positive way and made all the items she already had look even better! Have to ask where you got that lovely tasseled bedspread?

Did you have a fave rug in stories? (Swipe over)#s Did you have a fave rug in stories? (Swipe over)#sponsored This one was the winner for me! @boutiquerugs sure has an awesome outdoor AND indoor rug selection at great prices! Having a new rug makes a space feel so fresh and clean! And, you can always use my code: VP60 (when their site is not already marked down) on top of their already great deals! Chester and I have a new fave spot...and, Chester in that last photo 😂...he was excited! #outdoorrugs #patiodecor #boutiquerugs
Old look drawers or sand them? I sniffed this one Old look drawers or sand them? I sniffed this one for cocaine and didn’t smell any, so I think we’re good! I talked about our cocaine table in stories. 😁 I found this 12 drawer cabinet on our local sale site and it was a cabinet that the owner’s dad had made in the 70’s. I eventually want to find an old hutch top to put on it. I love it! It’s solid wood, except for the top, which we will be changing out. I think it will make a perfect cabinet for storing all of my art supplies and paint 🙌🏼 #drawers #olddresser

What do you think of my new duck made antique duck What do you think of my new duck made antique duck decoy? #sponsored I love it and another thing I love...having string lights indoors!!! It’s so awesome to be able to use these string lights for lighting! Caséta by @lutronelectronics allows us to be in control of these lights or any other lights in our house that are hooked up to their system from anywhere/anytime, just by using the Lutron app! I chatted a bit about having string lights in stories...they are controlled with the Pico Smart Remotes...perfect for not having to crawl under something to plug or unplug them! 🤪Thanks to Caséta, they are even dimmable now too! 🙌🏼I’m thankful we can always be in control of our lighting for projects or just plain ol’ life, anytime! Another Chester approved project! #stringlights #CasetaSmarterLighting
