Shop the Design: Crisp, Modern, + Neutral Bedroom Design {McGee and Co. Look for Less}
One of my biggest design inspirations that I love to follow is Mcgee and Co. / Studio Mcgee. I love the simplicity and timeless feel of all their designs- super crisp and clean but also so warm. Recently I pulled together this design board for a client’s guest bedroom that reminded me of their designs, but definitely using more budget friendly pieces! I wanted to share this in case you might be looking to duplicate the same kind of high-end look for less! I shared shopping links to everything I used (and some extra similar items) below!

One Room Challenge Week 5 Update: Book Wall
This week we finished up what will probably be my favorite part of the playroom: the book wall! I knew I wanted a large part of the playroom dedicated to books/reading and a spot to display our massive vintage children’s book collection. I decided to have some book ledges/shelves custom made to the exact dimensions I wanted as opposed to buying pre-made shelves and piecing them together. MK Farmhouse Furniture was able to custom build these for me so reasonably (seriously cheaper than I would have paid for store-bought shelves AND he installed them too).
One Room Challenge: Playroom Makeover Week 3 Update: Lights + DIY Chalkboard
We made some good progress this week in the playroom: we have LIGHT, we completed the DIY house chalkboard, and we finalized the plans for built-ins and shelves. I’m loving the light and although I was concerned about it hanging down too low, it ended up being perfect for the space and isn’t in the way at all. But as with all old houses, when you fix one problem, you create more. Now we do have a few holes in the drywall from where our electrican had to cut in to run the electric (since this room had not ever had an overhead light. Hopefully we can fix those this weekend (we are going to try to patch it ourselves so I’ll let you know how that goes!).
One Room Challenge: Playroom Makeover - Week 2
Well the room doesn’t look a whole lot different YET but I feel like I still made a lot of progress this week! I have pretty much nailed down all the big design decisions and the layout of the room.

Below I’m sharing a design board I have put together with my selections so far and more details on each section!
