EXTREME Bedroom Makeover for Marie! ✨ DIY Plastered Walls & New Furniture!

Hello! We are starting Marie's bedroom today and I am so excited to start this room because the direction of it, I'm just, it's been when I've been wanting to do the color palette and just the pieces in here. Very excited. Justin and I are currently going to the paint store to get some paint because we are going to be plastering Marie's entire room in this plaster right here from MeOded. If you remember in my kitchen, I actually plastered all of the walls, the ceiling, and the range hood with a MeOded product and I ended up doing, it's funny because they named the product Drew's White, which is actually a color you can get there, and this one is the Marmarino Palladino, which is a natural lime and marble dust based plaster suitable for interior and exterior and it has a satin finish to it. It's so pretty and this is the exact color I'm going with for the walls in there and that's all I'm going to share. So we're going to the paint store because we want to actually color match this and get some actual paint that can go on the window trim and the baseboards because we're not going to be plastering those so that they just coordinate, so yeah. Heading there, going to Crown Paint, grabbing two of these primers for the window trim. So this is a look at Marie's bedroom and a lot of people were asking me why she selected this room as opposed to the other one with the bathroom and that's just because this one is larger and she is using the other one as her bathroom because we're the only two people living in the house. So I put together a small mood board for Marie's bedroom just to get the color tones and the direction and alignment and I love these photos together. I knew I wanted to embrace the red tone lighting that comes through the window because my house is neighboring a bright red home and through the window is some red toned lighting so I knew if I picked the proper neutral colors it really could be like kind of a play on that lighting as a feature as opposed to what could be kind of taken as a negative because I could always cover that up with curtains if I want to which I will be adding but I want the design overall to really really embrace the full element of the room so I love this center photo here. I think the bed is so cool. I love the color on the wall as well. I feel like if you had red tone lighting in a room like this it would just look pretty you know and my initial thought was to actually combat the red so make the room green you know do a green design in the space and then the red would kind of neutralize out but I started adding green tones to this room over the course of the week leading up to this makeover and they just didn't feel right. The colors almost felt gray and kind of muddy and I knew I wanted just warmth in this space and kind of a play on wood tones. I'm really going for wood tones and an old world feel while still incorporating modern elements. The windows are primed and we are going to start in with the paint because with the paint I want to go ahead and just get all of the trim first we want to paint all the trim and the baseboards all the windows as well and then go in with the plaster over top because I think it would just be so much easier to do plaster over top of that and then just touch up with any paint if needed as opposed to plastering and then having to go back and like really make sure that we paint perfectly along that line including the trim on the ceiling which as you guys can see here the ceilings in all of these rooms which is one of the reasons I bought this home is all of them are coat so every single ceiling actually arches up throughout the entire house and so with that there's this little border we're going to be painting that because we can't plaster this is a color that we have color matched to our plaster and it looks perfect and we are going to be painting this along all the baseboards so whenever you are plastering I always suggest to purchase a paint color and a matching tone to your plaster and do all of your trim work first because at least do one coat on your trim work because it's always easiest to add the first coat and then just be a little bit messy with it as you could see I went a little bit above the edges of all the trim not too much because I definitely want that primer to be the kind of gritty base for our plaster so I don't want to go too much over the top of it but I painted all the trim with two coats of a paint that matched the plaster first that just makes it so much easier when you go in with the plaster you can go right up to the edge and as you can see here the paint actually goes on pretty bright and then it dries down quite a bit darker good morning today we are starting the plaster which I'm pretty excited about I've actually never used this particular product from meoted this one I already showed is the marmorino paladino it's gotta be like 50 pounds or something and this bucket of plaster costs 275 dollars so I just wanted to be fully transparent with you guys and let you know how much this process actually costs so we're gonna see how much of the room we can do with the bucket if you could put in the work yourself and just get the product it really is so good and I opted for this colorway and we're gonna start plastering this so I'm excited to open the can it's also so echoey in here at the moment start getting this in the walls it is applied with a trowel very similar to what we did in the kitchen but I think this product is actually quite a bit smoother the one in the kitchen had like actual texture to it it kind of was more of a stone like a faux stone finish this one's a bit smoother it has kind of a sapping finish to it so this is what the product actually looks like and as you can see it's kind of like a frosting like material it's pretty I'd say it's on like a medium thickness it's not super thick and it's not like runny so this is what we are going to be plastering on the walls and for the first coat you just go through and do a pretty thin layer on everything I'm thinking I want to start on this wall just because I don't want to mess up our main wall which is where the bed's going to be so if anything I'll start here where the dresser is going to be covering here goes nothing it's already falling so this particular plaster has marble dust in it like a ground down marble and from that it kind of creates a couple of scratches like it's not perfectly smooth on your first coat but you're going to fill all that in on the second coat you need two coats of the plaster so the first coat is mainly just to get like the plaster on the wall you just do one thin layer and then your second coat is where you go in and fill in the cracks and smooth it out with a sponge it's more like the vanity layer and this one's more of like your base layer so if you see any scratches in there it's totally fine you're going to fill those in with the product on the second it's a super thick product so it's kind of like stethical in a sense I could genuinely say one of the most satisfying things is edging with plaster so I kind of take a bulk of it and just kind of put it on the wall then I kind of scrape it so I have it right on the edge there I don't have a ton but probably like that's good you can go right up the edge and scrape right up it's just so satisfying how clean of a line you get so this right here is a time lapse spanning about four hours this product does take quite a while to dry down but as it dries down you could start seeing some of the movement to it and something I'll say is the first coat really is your base layer the second coat is where all the movement happens hi guys Justin here Drew had to run to a meeting for a few hours so you guys are stuck with me for a little bit um I'll just keep plastering while he's away if I show up will you show me around town if I make you laugh will you give me some time because I know that a girl like you could be falling in love just about anyone Drew's meeting went over and had to do the rest of the first coat by myself and it is done half of it is on me but the rest is looking great on the wall Justin literally is covered and meoted yesterday we got the first coat of plaster on this entire room and something I have to apologize for in this video is the audio the neighbors are ripping out a tree outside and they've been ripping it out for like eight hours and it's just not ripping out it's been happening for so long and I've just been wanting to come in here and share with you guys the color so I apologize for any background noise so we have the wall color which is looking so good Marie loves it I love it so there is a red bounce in this room but I kind of wanted to embrace that in the design and make it more so like a lighting feature as opposed to trying to design it and having a red bounce on colors that I didn't want that to happen on so the base for the room I really wanted to also be warm so that all the woods kind of complemented each other because I have a dark wood floor underneath the red and a headboard which is from Lulu and Georgia this is for Marie's bedroom I am just so so so excited about some of the pieces that Lulu and Georgia sent over for this space I want to thank them so much they heard that I was moving and reached out they're like we'd like any pieces for your home and I thought it would be perfect for Marie's room because as much as Marie loves antiques and vintage I do know that she prefers items on the newer side I have gotten her into antique and vintage but I do know like for a bed for example she would love in one so I thought this would be really beautiful in here it is such a stunning bed I'll pop up the actual name really warm wood on the outside and then it has this beigey linen and on camera it's kind of showing up blue for some reason one of the reasons I opted for the arch shape was because it kind of mimics this top corner here this one over here I just love that I thought it kind of fit in the wall quite nicely but not only do we have the headboard here there's also a footboard that goes at the end so it's an entire bed and some nightstands and these nightstands I've been wanting to pop over here I just brought one in it's right here are a different tone of wood which I love I love mixing wood colors as long as they're on like the same hue so I wouldn't want to mix like a gray tone into here this is a nightstand here and there's just so much plaster on the ground so I'm just trying to get an idea of how those look paired together oh my gosh I love it I think that is so beautiful I love those tones together also like this nightstand because the drawer is a soft close it's just like really nice quality oh my gosh I have been looking for my carton swatches forever a solid like two weeks wow there's actually another nightstand in the box let me go grab it here it is Lulu and Georgia has such great packaging too I will say that if you order pieces from them they all arrive in such great condition and then this will be going over here I don't know why on the camera there's such like a bluey oh it's because of the blue tape on the windows oh I could take that off let me do that all right I took blue tape off of majority of the windows there's just one more that I think kind of is casting that little shadow there but look how stunning all of these colors are starting to look together I had a potential idea of doing some form of sconce that was actually plastered into the wall which is still an idea but I do have a big question for you guys and I'm going to just be behind the camera for a second because of the audio the big question I want to ask is about the ceiling because there is something really pretty about having a light ceiling and it wouldn't be stark white like this like I would definitely paint it more along the lines of this kind of ivory color uh probably a little warmer because there is something really pretty about kind of having this lightness here and then having a lightness up here it would not be stark white like this I definitely would go more of a creamier tone something just with a little bit of creaminess so it wasn't harsh and stark but I could leave the ceiling light like this if I wanted to or I could go dark with it I guess I kind of am leaning a bit towards plastering the entire room because I just love the way all the walls and the ceiling look when they're all the same color so I think it would be really nice and then this kind of uh tone would read on the ceiling and I also got to mention I don't know if I did this is only one coat I have to wait until they open up on Monday to get the second coat and that's really going to add a bit more texture to the walls and fill in some of these scratch lines as well but I'm just not sure what I want to do this ceiling yet of course we're going to have a light right here but there is something pretty about leaving it light or like maybe and then once we get the off the ground I'm sure that's bouncing even more of kind of a red hue on the wall making it feel even orangier but we're going to have this really great dark wood in here which is going to look so beautiful with the other wood tones I'm so excited but what should we do to the ceiling please let me know in the comments there is something nice about this I don't know let me know
