The master bedroom: a sanctuary for husband and wife. But the forest green walls didn’t exactly feel like a sanctuary to me, more like a man cave. So I changed a few things once we renovated everything and moved back in.
Things I love about my current bedroom:
Mix of greens and blues – I love the green in the duvet cover and the vase on the dresser. I’m not sure what that shade is called, but I plan to use it again in the new bedroom.
Things I don’t love about my bedroom:
The comforter – I bought this comforter because I liked the green and blue combo, but I didn’t see it in person before buying it. (Retired Pottery Barn Fiona Organic bedding.) I never liked it with the art above the bed, or really with the wall color. But I’ve been waiting to change the bedding because we’re getting a new king-size bed now that we’re in the new house. Hallelujah!!

Only one nightstand – I can’t wait to have room for two!
Barely enough room to get into bed because the room is so small.
What I plan to change in the new house:
Matching nightstands – I plan to do my own Rast Hack (probably very similar to this one from {A Charming Nest}). I already own the Rast IKEA nightstands; I just need to update them a bit. (Update: IKEA Rast Hack completed)
New duvet cover – something neutral, probably from Pottery Barn.
Add a quilt to the bed
Replace the picture over the bed. I want something more like this, with several pictures above the headboard. (Update: check out the pictures I added above the bed):
Oh, the work I have to do, and the money I’ll need to do it! I can’t wait to see the finished room.
(Update: I added curtains, too!)
I’ll cover the Dining Room next…
What is your dream for your master bedroom??
