master bedroom

our master bedroom is a work in progress. it is somewhat put together, but needs the finishing touches and details that will really make it feel like a cozy, romantic, peaceful spot. we don’t use our room for much more than sleeping, but i do love sleeping and therefore, love being in this room.

i went with a color palatte of grey, white, black, oatmeal, mustard, silver & of course, a little bit of linen {is that too many colors for one room?}

our bed was one of our first purchases when we moved from a 900 square foot home to this larger one. it is king size and A.MA.ZING. i'm pretty sure i sigh every night when i get in.

i bought these bedside tables for my love on his birthday {sweet gift, huh?} and the lamps are from restoration hardware. they are huge and shiny and i love them. and they are dimmer ones, so i appreciate that. i removed my glass of water from the table before photographing, but that is a mainstay. i have to have water at bedtime. sometimes we can’t find our big glasses and then discover that i have 5 on my night stand. apparently, i forget to take them to the dishwasher.

sorry to say, but i really like having a tv in our room {it is clearly not huge, but perfect for the mornings so that i can keep sleeping while the boys lay in bed and watch a kid show}

this poor little bird looks like he’s saying he wants out.

my first embroidery project. i love it. my love tries to hide it. not because he doesn’t like my embroidery, but because it is really small and apparently sort of annoying.

MY LIST OF STUFF TO DO TO THE BEDROOM:

1. hang a chandelier like this one

J10-194-4

2. wallpaper the window wall with this gorgeous paper from caskata {it is not wallpaper, just flat gift wrap and appears to be out of production, which makes me sad … but i will find it}

3. purchase this sheet set from dwell studio. when i have $400 to spend on sheets.

4. hang more stuff on the walls.

suggestions?

……….

and our bathroom. this room needs lots of work. i DO NOT like the cabinets or lights or mirror or counter, for that matter. but i think the counter will stay. let’s call this the before shot. perhaps sometime soon i’ll get to the point where i’ll have an after.

    I LOVE your room and think it is indeed put together and peaceful. I really like your colors! for the bathroom- if you don't like the cabinets you could paint them a nice cream color to blend in with your other things! just a thought- thanks for sharing!
