Master Bedroom Redo

I knew a little something needed to happen in the bedroom before I could love the space, but it turns out a lot of something happened and I ended up completely redoing it. Good thing I was on a break from classes. Through selling ALL old furniture, accessories, and bedding and shopping at flea markets and on craigslist, I was able to redo the entire room for practically nothing but man hours.

In order to lighten the room we repainted the brown accent wall to match the other three walls, light aqua. We still had the paint so that was free. New drapery was added, bedding was changed out, and of course I exchanged my black furniture for this light cedar set, which I love. All that was left after that was accessories. Since I believe a room does NOT have to be done in all one style of decor, I married traditional accessories (antique mirror over dresser-repainted black, traditional furniture, traditional damask bedding pattern, candle sticks) with contemporary peices and colors (black and creme, zebra rug, a splash of aqua on the bed, hot pink candle sticks, and brush nickel finishes). I hope you like the room as much as we do now!

Another special thanks to my sweet Tom for all of his hard work. I sure coudn't do all of this without your help! Thanks for putting up with your design-crazy wife.
