Today I am inviting you to take a peek into our Master Bedroom the way it is right now. Welcome to our boudoir!! This room is pretty much the only room in the house that we actually painted BEFORE we moved in. And that was because I placed it as top priority because I knew once all of that heavy furniture was in there it would be virtually impossible. So, I worked day and night and made sure it was done. But there is still work to be done in this room. Here is a peak into our master bedroom.
Update 11/01/14: See the current state of our master bedroom here.

These are my Goodwill lamps.
This desk above was given to me from my grandparents. I painted it a year ago, but did a really crappy job. It needs done properly. I still have not put the hardware back on it because it is really weird. I can’t figure out how to do it. The red frame is little felt roses. It is from Pier One.

This picture is the most realistic one of the actual wall color. The chair was made in Amish Country in Sugar Creek Ohio. It is a mission style solid cherry wood. I can’t remember where I bought this canvas, probably at Target. And the candle holders are Goodwill makeovers. Do you see that hideous hunter green dresser from the 90’s? Yeah, it used to be in my master closet, hidden away. I had not choice but to keep it for now because I desperately need the storage, but it needs a MAJOR update. I can see it in the near future! Right now I have a tablecloth thrown across it to try and disguise it a little. The table cloth was a gift from my sister from Afghanistan.

| Nice size windows. |
These are my ugly horizontal blinds. Hate them! They have gotta go. There is a huge tree right outside these windows, and when the leaves are still on it is completely private, but when the leaves fall, there are tons of homes behind us. Do you see that televison??? It is ancient, and I totally want a nice flat screen sitting there! The red leather jewelry box was an anniversary gift from Jason one year. I do love the windows in this house. They have a nice wide ledge so you can decorate inside them!

This is Jason’s dresser. I hate the way it is decorated. He piles all of his crap (2 phones, a pager, checkbook, keys, receipts, etc.) all over. I keep putting things on it that he can put stuff in, and he keeps piling them on top of the dresser. The canvas over the dresser is from Target. That full size mirror was a gift from my honey for my last birthday. I picked it out at Lowe’s and I love it! The hamper next to it is from Pottery Barn. You can also see the contrast of the wall to the left of the mirror and to the right. The one on the right is two shades darker on the paint sample card.
If you look carefully you sill see behind the bedroom door is a shoe rack for my husband’s shoes. We are VERY limited on space in this house. I need a better solution because that is just ugly. I also have hoodies hanging on the back of the door. No place else to put them, again.

You can see I painted that little ridge to match the walls.
