Time for more of the House Tour. Today it is the Master Bedroom.
And here is our humble Master.
I have gotten the master to a place where we are able to go to sleep and wake up with out hating it, but it is not to a place where I am ready to stop tweaking. When we moved in the walls were a horrible, soul sucking gray-green that look depressing. The master has only one small window and I am constantly wishing we had more light.
I painted the walls in a brighter aqua to help liven the space.
I am waiting to get my headboard. We have been using the crib ends as a makeshift headboard for about a year, and as it is OK in a pinch, what I really crave is a true bed, one with both a head and foot board. I have my eye on this one from Ikea.
Which is simple and in my price range. I am just waiting to get back from vacation, before I make the plunge.
Above the bed I have installed my $.04 art solution, you can read all about it in my Cheap and Creative Solution post.
I have been wanting to do more in this room, and with my husband gone it would have been the perfect time to get some work done, but I started to notice little spots on the ceiling...
and some water damage around the window.
We ended up needing to replace the roof. I am concerned there may be some water damage in the walls, so until I can look into it, I have this project on hold. I am not even willing to change up the color until I know what I am dealing with.
Since our bedroom is in a less then finished state, I have plenty of time and dreaming of what I want to do to make it our perfect sanctuary.
Thanks for stopping in.

I LOVE that Ikea bed, but the crib ends are totally working (albeit temporarily)! :)
ReplyDeleteCribs ends...how clever! sorry about your roof.
ReplyDeletek literally these pics took my breath away and I almost choked to death on my tea latte!! OH EM G!!!!!!!!! I have goosebumps- I LOVE that bedroom! and now I want to pack up my bedroom, toss it out the two story window and start all over!! LOL!
ReplyDeleteInformative Post! Thanks for sharing with us..really crave is a true bed, one with both a head and foot board.
ReplyDeleteI love the arrangements that you made on your bedroom. The view from the window is amazing.
ReplyDeleteThank you-
ReplyDeleteJust to put my small token of advice based on my bias towards wood furnishings. You could actually buy a headboard for your bed instead of covering it, that way, it will look a little more better.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your advice- Since these photos were taken, we have purchased the iron bed. Part of the reason why I was using what we had is lack of funds for that particular room. I am on the fence on big wood furniture at this current time. I think it can be beautiful, but I am not sure it is really what I am going for.
