Guest Room Progress

Well, hello there! This weekend was a productive one around here. Lots of progress made on the guest room but it was the tedious details that aren't very picture worthy. John officially announced that this was the "worst project yet!" Ummm, those type of words don't usually escape his lips so you know he was serious!

Here's a glimpse into a bit of what's hanging around...unfinished mind you.

We need A LOT of these faux metal bars so trying to think of how to recreate this look and not break the budget has been quite the challenge. Here's one of our ideas...

Pvc pipe with copper elbow fittings. Love the clean lines this creates but it was a tad too bulky for what I was going after.

Next try...

Plastic tubing and wooden beads. Bingo! Totally the look but still needs a bit of tweaking. 

So, for those of you who are sick of the little glimpses you'll be thrilled to see this  next picture...our inspiration. It's a coffee house in Seattle and when I saw this picture, I knew this look needed to come live in our house!

There ya have it, I hope you'll come back around to see the full picture and admire John's handiwork. He's going to deserve tons of props when this one's complete!
