Hi @JoeAzza 

Thank you so much for sharing your bedroom makeover project. I love all the elements you've included in this makeover. The freshly painted walls make the room so much brighter, and the black floor provides excellent contrast. Your custom builds of course add so much personality to the room, the piano coat hooks, the upcycled drawer cabinet and of course my favourite the custom window shutters.

Again, thank you for sharing such a wonderful project.

Eric
