Farmhouse Bedroom Renovation Completion
Hi friend!
Yay yay yay today’s the day! And the farmhouse bedroom renovation completion is giving me all the feels to write about! 🙂 I have poured myself into this room and I couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out!

Completing the Farmhouse Bedroom
I took my coffee upstairs to see the finished room (and floors) in natural lighting for the first time after finishing them the night before. It was the BEST feeling. There are a lot of reasons to DIY, but that moment of completion when you get to stand before something you’ve brought to life with your own 2 hands is a powerful thing. It’s a confidence builder. Sure Ed helped some, but I’m claiming this one 😉
Because through blood, sweat, and tears I did this! Even when I didn’t think I could. Even though most things in this room challenged me. It wasn’t easy, but goodness it was worth it! And trust me if I can do it anyone can!
Finishing the Farmhouse Bedroom
Scrape Out the Crud
The last big thing I had to compete this room was to seal the floors. But before I did that I used a small screw driver to scrape out the dirt and crud from in between the cracks. This was probably my least favorite of all the jobs this room required haha! Then I vacuumed the floors…a lot lol!
Sealing the Floors
I used Bona HD Traffic Extra Matte to seal them. I love that it dries crystal clear and has a matte finish, which leaves the floors looking beautiful, raw, and natural. I applied 2 coats of the Bona Traffic HD with a brush and then let them cure for 3 days. I’ll go into more detail about sealing floors when I do the next room 😉

Farmhouse Bedroom Renovation Completion
We spent all weekend moving furniture and getting things settled in our new bedroom! And I’ll be sharing more before and afters along with our fully furnished bedroom soon! Living in a fixer upper can be hard. Like really mentally challenging sometimes and I think with everything going on in the world and us heading into winter I needed to get this bedroom completed even more than I realized 🙂

Amanda, give yourself a big pat on the back., you are so talented!!! My only attempts at DIY have been painting furniture, cabinets, etc. Can’t say that I have much talent but I call it good enough and at least I saved money. 🤷♀️ I can’t wait to see how you style it. Have a Blessed and safe Thanksgiving.
