The plywood was unfinished so we sanded and painted it to match the bed surround. You can also opt to stain or apply a clear coat of polyurethane or equivalent. Just choose a veneer plywood (birch, maple, oak, etc). A lot of these options are available at Home Depot.

Ceiling is great - is it individual T & G boards, or full 4x8 sheets?

This question is pretty old, but I hope this is helpful.. it is the Kite Kilim rug, very popular and still being sold at West Elm. All rugs are actually 15% off right now as well.

Good question. It does look like they rest on a small shelf. Velcro?

They are hanging on custom powder coated wall hooks that rest slightly above a small applied moulding. You can purchase these pulls in yellow and a few other colors by contacting us directly: info@rethinkdesignstudio.com

Hi! Thanks for the inquiry. The night stands are vintage; probably from the early 60s. We spray lacquered the drawers and base white and had the drawer pulls power coated (painted) bright yellow. Shop your local antique or flea markets for similar tables and re-imagine them in a new color! Good luck!

Hello! Thanks for reaching out. The bedside table was a vintage find that we then painted and added custom powder coated hardware. You could probably find a similar piece at West Elm.

Are the yellow cushions mounted on the wall custom? - I think you are so clever to hang the cushions from a bracket on the wall. Are these typically a sailboat or boat type cushion? They look fabulous!! Great job. :)

Hi there! Thanks. The cushions were custom, yes. You could use any nautical cushion with a handle if you like. You can view and purchase the hooks we used to hang them here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/ShopRethink?ref=si_shop

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Love Your Room LLC added this to Fun and Easy Ways to add Color to White Spaces
Warm up a kids' room. Add a bolt of a perky color like yellow, along with a large pattern, to a white space and it will be really cheerful for the little ones. Add DIY touches such as trim around lamp shades.
Laura Gaskill added this to Decorate With Intention: 10 Tips for Blissful Bedrooms
5. Refresh your palette. If it's been a long time since you changed the color scheme in your bedroom, try making a fresh start. This is a private space, so don't worry about color trends (unless you really love them). Instead, think about which colors make you feel calm, rested and relaxed. Cool blues and greens are generally calming, while fresh white and citrus yellow can be nice to wake up to — something to think about if you are not a morning person.
Vanessa Brunner added this to Houzz Tour: Sweet Georgia Summer Beach Home
Flea markets and garage sales were scoured for affordable but quality pieces, and simple furniture from big-box stores filled in the blanks. "In a beach house, you can get away with more," says Joel. Twin beds allow for more sleeping space — this upstairs area can sleep four to six. The yellow headboards are actually outdoor floor cushions with handles that can be taken down and used for extra seating when needed. Bedding: Amy Butler; baskets: World Market; rug: West Elm kilim; nightstand: refurbished vintage
Living Small: City & Small Space Consulting added this to Design Tastemaker: Amy Butler's Playful Patterns
An Amy Butler pattern adorns the sheets in this airy bedroom by Joel Snayd. While this pattern is discontinued, Butler's newer designs are available at Bed Bath & Beyond.See the rest of this home
Samantha Schoech added this to Dip a Toe Into Modern Nautical Style
This bedroom manages to achieve that clanging, down-by-the-dock feeling with a navy throw rug and rope pulls on the canvas curtains. It's all about materials; there's not an anchor or a spyglass in sight.
Laura Gaskill added this to Citrus Hues Add Zest to Rooms
Clean your room with color. Children's spaces and musty guest rooms can get a refreshing update with a healthy dose of white and an invigorating infusion of yellow. Ground the look with dark blue and crisp geometric prints.Worried about using white around kids? As long as you stay away from white upholstery, you should be fine. Room elements like walls, lamps and window coverings are a safe bet, and anything that can be thrown in the washer with a little bleach will stay nice and fresh looking.
Laura Gaskill added this to Sell Your Home Fast: 21 Staging Tips
13. Use "extra" rooms wisely. If you have been using a spare bedroom as a dumping ground for odd pieces of furniture and boxes of junk, it's time to clean up your act. Each room should have a clearly defined purpose, so think about what potential buyers might like to see here. An office? A guest room? Another kids' room? Whether you buy inexpensive furnishings, rent them, or borrow some from friends, making a real room out of a junk room will have a big payoff.
Meg Padgett added this to Baking Soda: The Amazing All-Natural Cleanser You Already Own
Bedroom, living room and hall:• Before you vacuum the carpets or clean your upholstery, sprinkle them with baking soda and let it sit for 15 minutes to remove any odors.• Deodorize your closet by placing an opened box of baking soda on a shelf.• Clean children's toys with the aforementioned basic mixture and a sponge. Rinse and let them dry.• Deodorize stuffed animals with a light dusting of baking soda; let it sit 15 minutes, then dust or vacuum it off.• Freshen shoes with a light dusting of baking soda on the inner soles.
Becky Dietrich, Interior Designer added this to Single Design Moves That Can Transform a Child’s Room
These sunny yellow bolsters really add punch to this Savannah, Georgia, sleeping loft.

Shorter windows for better furniture placement. Expensive but something to consider if bedroom windows need to be replaced
