Bedroom Reveal

The time has come for the big bedroom reveal...If you have followed my little blog you know what I am talking about...Previous post click HERE

First of all we wanted to get rid of the carpet in the bedroom suite and preferably putting hard wood floor in. I didn't want the pergo or the vinyl...I wanted to match the rest of the house even though it took more time, work and money. We actually had to vacate the house for 2 days because the smell was so bad. Here are some before pictures showing you the rooms with the carpet still intact...(of course I forgot to photograph the bedroom with furniture still in them- I am always in a rush)

Then the new furniture arrived... and my oh my how much fun that was!

I love the piece I chose...

So at this point we are ALMOST done...always few little pieces here and there... The room adjacent to the bedroom (the one we work out in) got new floors too and the walk in closets. However at this point I am not ready to post that room quite yet...why? because the closets are not up and running...so we have clothes and shoes all over the place until the closets get's installed in five days (Yup I am counting the days)  In the meantime I wanted to show you my bedroom...the one I always wanted with that "hotel" feel to it...I think I succeeded. What do you think?

Have a wonderful Sunday

Thoughts on Master Bedroom

We have had the same bedroom furniture since we got married but the bed frame is cracked and  the nightstands are worn, we were discussing how we desperately need a new mattress too. With upcoming hard wood floor projects I think it is inevitable to switch to something more grown-up if you know what I mean.
So when the furniture will be removed to make room for new floor they won't make it back in.
So the perfect bed hunting begins. I thought this would be fun. Not so much.
Well I am on a budget, but I want a headboard that "wow's" me. 
I started looking on Pinterest and found bunch of great ideas regarding wall colors and decoration...bunch of shabby style...ohh so cute... the more I looked the more confused I got, so I got kinda discouraged and stopped looking. Now it's close to the time when the workers are coming to do the floor projects and I have to decide what I want to do...Arrrrrghhh!
Here is what I am drawn to....

Cherry Sleigh bed...Always wanted one....

 Cherry Canopy Four Poster

 Chesterfield with Linen fabric...Very chic....Then I started thinking...hmm the headboard will get dirty....the cat might puke on it or start using it as a scratching post....

Here is another one with linen fabric and whitewashed...strong possibility but again...the kitty... I want it to last for years...

This is my new style...French antique country look...very romantic but will I get bored of it?

Shouldn't I buy something more traditional and permanent?

(The picture actually shows an old cherry bed that has been repainted by the owner and is probably way over my budget)

This is at a hotel in London where I have never slept better. Something about the dark furniture and the hotel feeling really captures me. Maybe I will try to create the "hotel feel" without the stuffiness....Hmmm

 

I was so close to ordering this set last night....Hubby approved!

I am so glad I slept on that decision because when I woke up I had changed my mind. It's awfully dark wood....will it be a pain to keep dust free?

Today I am leaning towards this...I am 98% sure I will love this set...I know seriously how many times can you change your mind.

Ok, Dear readers....Help me out here. What are your thoughts on this pathetic decision? Inputs, Suggestions, Anyone? Is it too much to ask to feel like a Royal Queen?

Let me hear your voices peeps!

Thanks Bryn
