Expedit in boys room gets country look


Materials: Expedit, wood boards, driftwood stain.

Description: We have Cowboy/country theme in our children's bedroom.

Now the rest of the room has been updated. We have Expedit shelves, and placed boards around. I stained it with driftwood colour.



You'll see more pictures of the room here.


My first hack posted here was the boys cowboy bed.

  1. Love the make over, would love to see a picture of what it looks like open curtain to see the contrast between the white, wood and fabric but if your boys are anything like the ones I know then maybe hidding it might be a better plan!

      Hidding all the toys behind the curtains is better for my eyes and mind .. :P

    1. Hi Adriana! I used stain, and it's called driftwood. Brand name is Jotun Lady. Some places I had 2 coats, others 3, just to make it more lively. Hope this helps you.. thanks for comment :)

  5. I went to the jotun website, but can't find a way to purchase the stain. Where did you buy it? I live in the US.
