My son asked me to paint his room blue! // Book Lover Bedroom // IKEA HEMNES Daybed Hack

[@rosalindaarons6657]

When you say "trust the process", you aren't kidding. This bed is absolutely stunning, I can't imagine a boy that wouldn't love this installation in their room. I wish KZbin had been around when my son was 9, I'd have been building right along with you.

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Thank you so much!!! Sometimes you just gotta take a leap and trust in your own abilities

[@kristadavis2825]

Wonderful job! My 9 year old picked all the colors for his shared room and it is amazing! Drizzle (a silvery white) trim, Pewter walls, and Starless Night (dark navy blue) ceiling with glitter. The quad bunk is a very similar grey as the walls and has greyish blue velvet curtains. Each bed has basically the Hogwarts houses main colors on a solid quilted cover and there is a circular mountain rug that combines all the colors. We used natural dark wood and canal colored leather on the other furniture. Everyone says it is the most tranquil room in the house.

[@didiartiste]

impressive ! you could even extend the project between the bed and the wall under the widow and build him a bespoke desk if needed

[@Hanasdiyhome]

That would be so cute! Thanks for the idea!

[@BLUEGREEN65]

Wow! This is amazing!!! I’m 59 years old and I would love a bed like this! Very cool Mom!!!😊

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Haha me too!! I spend a lot of time here while he’s at school

[@jenniferb2528]

Me too

[@daisymay4183]

My father built me a built in bed like this and it had a loft on top. I had alot of great years with that bed. Plus i have the memory of him and helping him make it. This reminded me of it. Love that color blue💙😊

[@camellia8625]

I don’t even like DIY or kids but am extremely impressed at what you have done for your little lad

[@Hanasdiyhome]

That’s the best ind of compliment. But I’m curious, why don’t you like DIY?

[@sarahlogan2075]

It looks fabulous! I'm so glad you went with blue (and I hope he is truly happy with that particular blue). He is the one that has to live in it.

[@Hanasdiyhome]

He really does love it!!

[@absalomknife]

This is incredible! Love the color so much 🥰 I think the only thing that could make it any cozier is some curtains he can draw, make it feel like he’s reading in a little tent

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Curtains would be so cute in there! I’m so glad you liked the color.

[@elainemurphy8793]

Hana, you did an amazing job for your son. Vision, color choice, craftsmanship, creativity… all DIY/A+. You have serious engineering skills & your commentary was great, humble & spot on. I imagine you are a self-starter, are guided by your inner plumb line & enjoy & conquer any & all challenges in life. Brava!!!!! Elaine of beautiful Montclair NJ.

[@insanity6829]

what's the debate on blues vs grn??? He made it clear he wanted blue. room turned out great!!!

[@cyndij8312]

As I mentioned in the short, this color of blue is beautiful. I can't believe you were holding up green paint chips after he said he wanted blue. 😅 But a great idea to pre-select some blue colors and give him the final say. I love how this bed nook is pretty much just some trim. But painting it all one color does make it look like a custom built-in. Maybe a blue ceiling in the nook, too?

[@Hanasdiyhome]

It's amazing how paint can transform a room! I’m considering what to do in the ceiling nook! Paint. Maybe wallpaper??

[@cyndij8312]

Paint it the same color. Would it be too weird to add glow in the dark stars? Or dark blue wallpaper with stars? I couldn't tell if the ceiling is popcorn. I think you've removed some from another room? I sent this vid​eo to my niece-in-law as a suggestion for her 7-year-old son. He shares a room with his 1-year-old brother. I think it would be a great way to separate their spaces. @Hanasdiyhome ​@@Hanasdiyhome

[@dragondawn420]

@@cyndij8312 Ooh - dark blue wallpaper with metallic stars would look AMAZING in the ceiling area above the bed. Especially one with sort of a matte or satin finish to the dark blue, instead of something glossy. That way the metallic stars would really jump out from the background, especially if he had a night light lit on his shelves.

[@cyndij8312]

@@dragondawn420 I would live in that space if it were mine!

[@joycefernandezbaham8380]

That is a beautiful blue color.

[@barbaradavies4061]

This is amazing, I would love to have something like this. I bet your son is so proud of his mum.

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

You should have your own show on Magnolia Network…….Honestly this was a top notch 🎉well executed project….and all those POWER TOOLS 🤗…..YOU GO GIRL ❤

[@littledude5311]

You did a beautiful job. Also, I love your enthusiasm. To up the coziness factor, install curtains on the front and side of the bed.

[@sus8e462]

Gorgeous!! Has me wanting to do this for myself! So glad you trusted your gut & didn't second guess it! Hope your son loves this so much he doesn't want to move out! And that he & your daughter catch the DIY bug from you!!

[@gabrielmaroto18]

Best mom ever!❤

[@TRHLHome]

Wonderful room, the blue is perfect

[@lisathaviu1154]

This is a beautiful room, but what your son will need in years to come is a really good place to put a charging station where it does leak light. I am a voracious reader and I have 3 Kindles and 2 tablets. As a result, I need a compact multiple item charging station. Of course, he’ll need room for doing homework too.

[@Hanasdiyhome]

There’s a little side table where I added the outlet. The room isn’t done! I’ll add a desk soon!

[@Eric_Olsen]

Projects like this is a good time to change outlet and light switch colors and style when painting. The other suggestion with blue, ignore the experts who always pair blue with a tan/beige as a accent and pick out a grey. I have grey walls a blue accent wall and painted the trim and doors white. I also switched to the decor outlets and switches in white. If still in the home in 4 years a wall mount TV and in wall power and cable management is a option. make sure to see if you can find a trim match if you notch a baseboard then future owners can install a full piece.

[@lilacchocolate]

You did an amazing job!!! Gorgeous results!!! 📚👏☺

[@jessicahites871]

I'd love that bed!! Great job!!

Time for a built-in desk to the side of the bed!

[@asiamfitness5546]

LOVE IT! My son has the same bed, and this is perfect!

[@Hanasdiyhome]

I’m glad it gave you some inspiration!

[@suzannebrookes5950]

Looks great and that blue colour is stunning, not normally a fan of blue on walls as I always find it feels cold but I love that shade, you did a fantastic job.

[@Wha-uwhat]

New sub here. I love this bed. I have always wanted a cozy bed like this as a book lover.

[@Hanasdiyhome]

I am so glad you love it! It's definitely become my favorite place in the house

[@gabilafora4204]

The end result is beautiful, would love one for myself just don't think i have the skills to build one lol

[@Hanasdiyhome]

We all start somewhere. Maybe you can’t build it today but it’s something you can build towards

Just found your channel and you did a fabulous job. What color is that blue? Home Depot? Lowes? I am going to be redoing a spare bedroom and this color would look great.

[@laquitajackson830]

I love the blue? What color is that's again? The bed is amazing.

[@sarrabenhenda5679]

Oh my god what a great work you re very talented

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Thank you so much!! 😊

[@mildredchey3930]

In my country we just order what’s colour what style also include assemble !

[@CourtneyCha0s]

If your kid is old enough to speak their wishes and read, they can pick a paint color. Trust your kid!

[@maranatha256]

Mine wanted black. No.

[@phyllisanngodfrey6137]

My son is 48. He bought a house and picked 3 different paint colors for his great room (combo LR, DR and kitchen)….bad choices…..a few years later, he RE-painted the entire area GREY 🤣😂

[@MS-fp4qj]

Will it still pull out into a double bed with the corner pieces on?

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Yes! I’ll post a shorts on it

[@Ritapotter-q7u]

Really liked the idea. but i am wondering why the bed is on one side of window then the opposite side.

[@MG-zt1sc]

Because she is filming with a mobile phone in a way she can see herself on the screen while filming. Phones than change the perspective (don‘t know how to say correctly). Like when you do selfies. It changes sides.

[@sharonromer6606]

Cute

[@ladonnabuehne1867]

Wow!

[@SusanTatum]

It looks really cute but as he gets taller he won't be able to straighten his legs when sleeping. I had this trouble with my boys and their bunk beds. Footboards don't work well except for smaller people. That said, he'll love this set up for years yet!

[@IMOO1896]

Why would it make a difference that the house has white shutters, that would dictate your inside wall color?

[@Hanasdiyhome]

I wanted to drench the entire room including the baseboards and ceiling but the shutters would stand out too much as they are white

[@sarrabenhenda5679]

Woooow

[@betzygambaro9801]

Wondefull

[@amberheywood2603]

This room will need to be redone. Im thinking at 15? Noys get tall fast

[@Hanasdiyhome]

I doubt it. My hubby is only 5ft 10 and had a twin bed until we got married 😂

[@cheskydivision]

Your decorating for your son so why stress over the paint color. Why even ask him what he wants if you want to put your preferences first?

[@Pattim4762]

It's pretty bit too much blue. Needed more white

[@MG-zt1sc]

Hi, just found you here. Seems i could like your content a lot. I love diy and make over. But as you have a good amount of subscribers, please invest in your equipment. A nice micro? The sound is pretty bad. I can barely understand you. Greetings from Germany and the best wishes for a happy new year. … Haha, and i love your cramped workspace, feels like home. Lol.

[@limitone9564]

When do you have time to do all these??? Are you a full time mom? Or do you also work outside? I'm just exhausted watching your video. I would have left it white. 😧

[@maranatha256]

Too dark

[@jillkaiser1747]

You need to watch some videos of Pro painters,painting wrong,and makes your work longer and there is no need for that.

[@Hanasdiyhome]

Cutting in first and rolling is wrong?

[@jillkaiser1747]

Cutting in is right but you roll from top to bottom, bottom to top, guess you didn’t watch any Pros painting, just trying to make it easier for you.
