Master Bedroom Reveal

Friday night after I snuggled Aidan to near death, I started to empty out our room and move things around.  I really had no clue if I was going to like the bed in front of the window or not.  I'm glad I did it, I love it now.  The room feels a lot bigger and it slowly but surely turning out beautiful.  There is still some work to be done but I had to start somewhere!


Before and After 


The doors have to be my favorite part of the whole room. They were a gift from a family friend and they have a great story to them.  I'll tell you all about it when I do a post on the day Mrs. Reynolds gave us a tour of her gorgeous house!
 Big difference isn't it?  I am still not finished with the chandelier.  I love the bamboo blind and the new burlap lamp shades.  The new fabric on the headboard is a very similar color to the old one but much prettier.  I was so over the ivory velvet.  We weren't really sure how we were going to handle the headboard at first.  It had been hanging on the other wall with slide in picture hangers.  I knew for sure I didn't want it screwed in to the bed so my marvelous husband made a frame that stands on the floor and we attached the headboard to it.  When we push the bed up against it, it doesn't move at all. It's the perfect solution.
 I kind of surprised myself and decided to keep the drapes I had.  They weigh a ton and have a great lining. 
 We moved the TV here.  Why do TV's have to be so ugly? The shelf that was above our bed is here now.  I stuck my yard sale mirror on it and some mason jars with tea lights.  The runners on the nightstands and this dresser I made with this Ikea fabric. It was almost the exact same fabric as my Pottery Barn Euro shams and only had to be hemmed on the ends. 
When I get something on the walls to the left and right of the bed I will take a wider picture of the room.  I don't think they need much. 

What do you think? Good decision?
