Our Bedroom Makeover: The Big Reveal + Giveaway!

Amanda Hamilton Design has changed our lives!

Adam and I had floated the idea of redecorating our bedroom around for a while.  Actually, years, if I’m being honest.  We truly hated the only room in our 700 square foot apartment, which meant that we didn’t like spending time in half our place.  The opportunity to work with Vancouver based Jamie from Amanda Hamilton Interior Design came up and we jumped.  It was time to finally spend the time and money to renovate our bedroom.

The biggest take away from working with interior designers, is that it NEVER would have happened without Jamie and Amanda.  Their professional design concept and guidance was that support we needed to make all the big decisions.  I learned so much throughout this process and have such an appreciation for what they do.

Remember what our bedroom looked like before?  It was a disaster.  We had oversized and mismatched furniture.  I had WAY too much stuff.  We weren’t utilizing any natural light or getting maximum square footage out of the room.  It felt cramped and functioned poorly.  And in terms of changes, we really didn’t even know where to start. Thanks to Jamie and Amanda’s vision, it’s a completely different room and I am SO excited for you to finally see it!  I have a million more posts about our bedroom makeover coming up, including a full room tour, details on each piece, how I changed to an open concept closet, etc. so hope you’re cool with that!  Scroll down to see our updated room and there’s a giveaway at the bottom!

Also, huge shoutout to the talented Meghan Bustard for taking these beautiful photos.  Hope you love it as much as we do!

    Hi Alicia! Love your bedroom makeover. The simplicity and clean lines are perfect especially in small spaces. I too would redo my bedroom. Bedrooms should be a place of peace and relaxation.

  • Desiree November 15, 2017 at 10:29 pm

    First of all, I NEED to know where the sconces are from. Secondly, I desperately need help decorating the spare room in our house into a office/storage area!

  • Kaitlyn Lush November 15, 2017 at 10:33 pm

    I would go totalllllly crazy to re-do my bathroom, I am really into interior design and somehow my bathroom just always fell short. Need spa vibes ✌🏻

  • Lisa November 16, 2017 at 8:43 am

    I have been waiting for this post! It turned out beautifully!

  • Kaitlin Husty November 16, 2017 at 9:27 am

    I would have my own bedroom redecorated too! Afterall, spend the most time in it. My 1 year old has decided to move into it to too, so it could use a facelift haha.

  • Sasha November 16, 2017 at 9:58 am

    This room makeover is out of this world! So beautiful but also functional – easy to look at! On my redo list is also our bedroom – for some reason, I can easily decorate the rest of our also 700 sqft apt, but when it comes to the bedroom – I’m at a loss! Its also my least favorite with old mismatched and hand-me-down furniture, while the rest of our place is comfy modern. Looking forward to the next post – I would really like to know where those low dressers came from 🙂 Thanks!

  • Sladjana Borovčanin November 16, 2017 at 11:27 am

    Living space. It is the breathing living soul of each home, thus ( I believe) it should grow, change as it’s inhabitants do as well. Good luck to all. @nikolaandluka

    • Sladjana Borovčanin November 16, 2017 at 11:29 am

      Its not it’s.. silly autocorrect

  • Danijela November 17, 2017 at 8:14 pm

    Such a beautiful space and so earthy! Very inviting. I absolutely love those curtains – where are they from if you don’t mind sharing? I’d love to do our living room. It is where we spend most of our time. Cheers

  • Hadley November 19, 2017 at 7:47 pm

    Your bedroom redesign is so beautiful that I would have to go with the bedroom as well if I got to choose a room of my own. Love the open hanging set up for your clothes.

  • Sarah Rudolf November 22, 2017 at 10:33 am

    Would love to redo our guest room. Right now it is white walls (that need to be painted), white bed frame, and white comforter. Has been on the list of things to do, but alas life seems to get in the way.

  • Choice Furniture Superstore November 30, 2017 at 1:49 am

    It’s beautiful. Love this bedroom makeover. Thanks for sharing.
