Hip Lavender Bedroom

Bed Area - $287
Cunningham makes a floor-to-ceiling upholstered "bed board" that fits in between the two windows. She cuts plywood in 20" x 20" squares, then cuts foam 3/4-inches shorter on each side so that when it's covered with fabric it creates a beveled effect. The upholstered squares are held together with mending plates and the entire piece is secured to the wall with a French cleat.

Office Space - $260
Anderson builds a desk area with storage on top, task lights under the storage area and a tack board covered with the drapery fabric. Sheinkopf builds a bookcase out of medium-density fiberboard (MDF) and attaches it to the wall with a French cleat to lift it off the floor.

Walls and Wall Art - $56
Anderson uses mirror tiles as a canvas for silhouette images. He covers the mirrors with self-adhesive paper, sketches a silhouette and cuts out the design with a craft knife. He peels up the center, spray paints the area white then pulls up the remaining paper to reveal the image. (walls: Behr - Purple Essence 660E-2U)

Window Treatments - $253
Dark lavender draperies add drama to the pastel palette, create height on the walls and give the room privacy. White Roman shades replace the vertical blinds.
