You’ve seen our foyer, living room, dining room, and kitchen… and today we’re heading upstairs to our newly completed guest bedroom! I’m so excited to have this space ready to welcome family and friends. Up until a couple months ago it was basically a storage unit full of unpacked boxes and now I think it’s one of the happiest parts of our home!
The headboard, dresser, and bedside tables all came from our guest bedroom in Dallas but I had the bamboo dresser repainted — the green was fun while it lasted but I was ready for a more neutral update! (The Wood Den did a great job if you’re local!) We gave the full-sized mattress we used to have to my brother Grayson and updated to a queen so our guests would be more comfortable — I went with this mattress and am really impressed with the quality given the price.
Annie Selke was kind enough to send beautiful bedding and a rug for the space and I love the way it all came together! We have several of their rugs in our home and they are just the best quality. I love the color and subtle pattern on this one — it brightened up the entire room the second we put it down. And their bedding is incredibly luxe — we stayed at their hotel 33 Main in the Berkshires last year and I wanted to take the bed home with me. I’m actually going to be giving away a set of this Trio bedding on Instagram this Friday so stay tuned for that! (P.S. We have the matching Trio bath collection in one of our bathrooms on Nantucket!)
If you read yesterday’s post, you know that my brother Camden and I just launched an Etsy shop where we’re selling prints of our favorite Nantucket photos. I was so happy to find a home for three of them in our guest bedroom: this one over the dresser and this one and this one side by side on the opposite wall. They bring the perfect pop of color to this space and make me so happy every time I walk by.
This room has a few funky details that we had to work around. In the first photo, you can see there’s a closet door to the right of the bed as well as a lopsided radiator cover and exposed pipes… I wouldn’t call it ideal but I like to think the color distracts your eye from the architectural oddities. 🙂
We found the old cathedral windows at an antique store in Savannah last spring and I love that they add a little texture on either side of the bed. The lamps on the dresser were a Pottery Barn find — I love the shape of the base and ordered these pale blue shades to give them a little more personality. And you know I’m obsessed with the monogrammed boudoir pillow that I found on Etsy… Now I want one for every room!

Beautiful reveal!! Thanks for sharing this post.
What color are your walls and trim?
I’m not sure — they were painted this color when we moved in. Sorry about that!
I thought your guest room turned out beautifully. Thank you for disclosing items that were c/o. Doesn’t make me like anything less.
Where can we send our Friday Q&A questions? I would love to get your thoughts on comforters. I am having the hardest time trying to find a comforter!
You can comment on a post or send me an email mackenzie@designdarling.com! Let me know what you’re looking for specifically and I’d be happy to help!
What a beautiful guest room! I love what you did with the windows on either side of the bed. I am going to try something like this in our house! I also LOVE the artwork. Rory is definitely my favorite part though
What a comfy space for guests!
Gorgeous reveal!! I may end up stealing your green/light blue/gold accent colors for a nursery I’m trying to theme!

This room is gorgeous! Do you have any tips on keeping the white bedding looking so fresh? I had white bedding in our guest room for a short time, and I loved it, but after one guest, the pillowcases and a corner of the duvet were ruined with mascara and makeup, and nothing would get it out! I tried everything –even resorting to straight bleach– and ultimately had to toss them because I couldn’t get the stains out and didn’t want future guests to think the linens were dirty. 🙁
Any advice is much appreciated! Thanks!
Ugh that’s terrible. The website says to machine wash warm and tumble dry low (and I would spot clean any stains beforehand) but we just got them so I don’t have any other tips yet!
Thanks! I may need to get brave and try it again, I just love how luxurious and bright white bedding is!
PS Love your blog and your style! 🙂
Wow!!! This looks so beautiful, clean and marine vibes going on! Perfect!
