Before & After: A Rustic Nautical Bedroom Makeover
Lauren and her husband both have great opinions about home decor, which at first meant it was a bit of a journey finding their shared style. But after tackling their bedroom together and combining both their ideas and tastes, it’s a fun, personal space that’s proof sometimes two styles are better than one!
From Lauren:
For four and a half years we’ve slept on a boxspring and mattress without a bed frame. It’s not that we didn’t want a bed frame; but we didn’t quite know what would work for us. I’m a little bit more vintage and Mark is a little bit more modern. So, until we could find our middle ground, we just decided to wait.
It was an IKEA hack of a Fjell wardrobe they had transformed with a “beachy white-washed exterior” and rustic interior shelves that got them started on the idea of mixing rustic and nautical. Next came a bed frame, then a headboard made by Mark and a gorgeous mix of bought bedding and DIY accessories.

Thank you Lauren!
