I have been working on changing our bedroom up a bit. I decorated the switch plates that you can see here. I painted the room and with the help of Oil Rubbed Bronze spray paint I switched out the gold accents!
Here’s that gold mirror that I have had for years.
Curtain rods that have been hanging around for years as well.

After! That chair is there to help me hang those curtains. I really want a chaise lounge chair for that corner! Love that ORB on the curtain rods and the mirror trim. The room is almost done with just a few more decorative touches but take a look at this….
The paint color before! Paint makes a huge difference! I used the Behr Premium Plus Ultra. It is a paint and primer in one. Love that paint! It took only one coat to cover this dark red. It was $32 for a gallon and I used 1 whole gallon and less than a half of another. Good deal!
I love the warmth of the new color. It’s called Peanut Butter. There is more work to be done but it’s all good!

Oh the power of paint! We had a similar color on our bedroom walls and lived with it for 3 years before toning it down…similar to your new color! Looks WAY better! Great job!
I love the mirror and te curtains they are gorgeous. And the bedroom is huge! Mine is about quarter the size of that!
Hi Sena, thanks for stopping by and thanks for the kind words.
Wendy, use the Behr Premium Plus Ultra. I was dreading painting over the red also because I thought it would be such a long process. It only took less than a couple of hours to paint the entire bedroom with the Peanut Butter color.
Your windows look great!
And thanks for the paint tip. Our master bedroom is currently a dark chocolate brown and if I ever get a free moment I’m thinking about painting it. One reason I hadn’t done it yet is because I was thinking we’d have to primer it first.
The mirror looks great in the darker color too! You did a great job!
