I recently collaborated with Ashley HomeStore to make over our guest bedroom. Most of my family lives over 6 hours away from us. We always enjoy when friends & family come to visit so when I thought about redoing our guest bedroom, I wanted a relaxing oasis for them. I wanted our guests to feel at home when they stay at our house, but also feel like they are on a mini get away.

Ashley HomeStore has some truly stunning products to choose from. The bed was the first thing I picked out & how beautiful is this piece? This bed is called the Marsilona Queen Panel Bed which you can find here. As soon as I saw it, I knew this would be perfect for our guest room. The folks over at the Ashley HomeStore in Amherst, NY were so helpful in explaining all the features of the bed & completely sold me on bringing this piece into our home. It has an antique white finish which gives it that rustic, vintage, farmhouse vibe that I am always trying to achieve in our home. I knew that there would be so many ways to decorate this piece because of its neutral color. The delivery team was extremely efficient & friendly. I told them exactly where I wanted it in the room & they placed it perfectly.

After deciding on the bed, I moved onto bedding & decor pieces to really bring this room to life. I wanted a calm & serene feel so I kept with the neutral color palette. Neutrals always speak to me so I knew they would speak to our guests as well. I used some ivory colored sheets & found this AMAZING duvet cover from Ashley Home Store. This duvet cover is seriously a show stopper!! It's called the Bergden 3 Piece Duvet Cover Set. It comes in Ivory & Gray, but I chose the Ivory color. The best part about this? One side is linen & one side is cotton!! It's so luxurious without being over the top. It's also under $175, which is such a steal! It comes with 2 pillow shams that I think really complete the look. The linen is so cozy with all its perfect wrinkles that just get better with time. It's such great quality as well, with buttons & ties to attach the duvet. It keeps the duvet in place which is something so necessary with duvet covers. I'm telling you, we may have to sleep in this guest room some nights just to experience this duvet cover. I topped it off with a striped & tassel throw blanket which I know will be swapped out for different throws quite frequently.

I'm a pillow girl & love layering up on lots of pillows. I think it gives such a warm & inviting feel. I ultimately chose these farmhouse-like pillows that add some brown accents to the room. They are called Striped Pillows which can be found, here. They have a natural colored background with brown grain sack like stripes on either side. They are each 18"x18" which are the perfect size for a queen bed. I love the farmhouse vibe that they add to this guest bedroom. We have grain sack fabric on our dining room chairs so I love that I was able to continue that trend in our guest room. I topped off the bed with a Retreat Pillow that I already had to let our guests know that they were entering their retreat!

I really don't think a room is complete without some good lighting & light fixtures. Again, in keeping with the neutral tones, I chose this Kian Table Lamp from Ashley HomeStore. I wanted a pop of black against all the ivory & browns. I thought the black would also be a nice way to tie in the sign I made for above the bed.  I love the simplistic yet elegant look it adds to the room. The soft glow is the perfect touch in the evening for guests to unwind from the day.

Lavender is one of my favorite flowers & I love the tranquility that it brings to a room.  I thought the lavender was a nice touch of color amongst the sea of neutrals.  It also makes the room smell heavenly. A nice floral candle along with a wicker tray topped with a mug ready for coffee completes the look in the guest bedroom.

I am so happy with how this space turned out.  I have Ashley HomeStore sofas in our sun room which are super comfortable & high quality so I knew I would love everything in our guest room as well. I highly recommend you check out the Ashley HomeStore website & browse everything that they have.  I guarantee you will find something you love as they have something for everyone.

Now I'm ready for some guests to come & stay a while!

What do you think of our guest bedroom?
