Our Master Bedroom Makeover: The Reveal!

Wooooohoooo!!!! It is DONE, people. And we are thrilled! Been a long time coming, but finally I can tell you, our master bedroom makeover is complete and you can’t see me, but I’m totally doing a happy dance right now;) Can we just go ahead and dive right on in with pictures? Pretty please? Because I am BUSTING AT THE SEAMS!

Let’s take a quick look at way back when – here’s what our master looked like when we decorated it ten years ago:

Then, a few years ago, I went through this temporary ‘obsessed with bright color’ phase…oranges, corals, aquas, bring it!

Annnnd I liked it for like a day. Ok, ok, slight exaggeration. But in all seriousness, I tired of it insanely quickly, and wanted to change it – my husband thought I was crazy, since I HAD JUST DONE IT, but I mean, really, nothing surprises that guy anymore.

So we painted the walls Sherwin Williams Sea Salt (75%), we bought a new bed, painted my dresser white, gave my husband’s dresser a new look, found a way to hide our cable box, mounted the tv, put up a plank wall and new baseboards, trimmed out the windows, gave our bi-fold closet doors a fun new look, bought a new rug, I found a nightstand for free for my husband’s side, and made another freebie nightstand for mine, hung wall lamps, made bedsheet curtains and hung rods up way high for extra drama, made a sign for above the tv, made a rustic ladder for our throw blankets…and picked up some new knick knacks along the way.

WHEW.

WANNA SEE?!!!!

I mean, seriously. Those curtains on a breezy day. *swoon.*

You might notice I moved the bird cage thingy with my DIY Book Page Wreath upstairs. Remember when I put the cubbies in the family room? That’s why;)

I bought the large square linen pillows from Marshalls, but the rest of them (Ikea) I’ve had forever. I grabbed them from the basement sofa, which already has a ton of pillows, so it’s all good. I’ve just really always loved them, so I decided to use them in here.

I also moved our ‘entry bench’ up here to the foot of our bed. We had that trunk, and it just wasn’t vibing with me for some reason. Couldn’t put my finger on why, but sometimes you just know. I tested out the bench just to see, and ended up loving it immediately and knew it had to stay! I’ll show you soon where the trunk ended up, and what we have going on for our entry now.

I fell in love (ha! totally didn’t mean to do that;) ) with this sign from Hobby Lobby. And I love that it kinda reminds me of the sign I made and hung above the tv.

Those lanterns are from Marshalls, and the black hangy things (their technical title) are from Lowes.

The long term goal is to grow a tall fiddle leaf fig tree (yes, you read that right – Liz is going to attempt to grow something believe it or not!) and put it where the ladder is, and move the ladder to where the wreath is hanging. But I was out of patience and had to post this bedroom. 😉

So that about wrap up the tour! Hope it was worth the wait and that you love it as much as we do! Thanks for hanging in there with us…as always, you guys are the best!

Now, if you’ll excuse me, I wanna go dive in here and TAKE A NAP! 😉
