Bumping this thread up to show off our freshly painted bike/guest room. Our daughter (living with us while in grad school) moved down to our basement, so we're moving stuff around and repainting bedrooms. What used to be her room is now our bike room, and overflow guest room (son's old room will be the main guest room). We spent the last week painting over all the pink & purple, getting a simple but stylish IKEA sleeper sofa, and moving the bike stuff. The big reveal:

Still needs some art on the walls and a rug on the floor, but I'm really happy with how it turned out.

Hey, that's really nice, BikeDutchess! Love the teal color and minimalistic decor. Well done, and functional too!

Thanks, Emily! The color scheme was inspired by the throw pillow

And that is a really pretty throw pillow! :-) Only wish you'd posted a couple of the photos full-size. I was having to squint to look at them. Do love it, though.

Your wish is my command!

Now I love it even more! I love how you picked up that color in the pillow.

Thanks so much for sharing the larger photos. :-)
