Month: January 2018

So, when you start a renovation list on a home, there are certain priorities. For me top priority is calculated by asking myself:

1. how much time will I be spending in that room?

2. how ugly is that room?

My bedroom was so very close to the top of the list Because when I first walked into our now Master bedroom it sorta made me want to cry…it was that UGLY.

Dated wallpaper, orange colored wood walls, saloon doors on the closet, dust caked lace window coverings, sparkling (really, with sparkles) popcorn ceilings,  random mirrors hung in several places, it had a lot of hideous things to look at….

                                                            See what I mean!?!?

 

Wallpaper is GONE, Wall sconce is GONE, Dusty lace curtains are GONE, odd shaped random mirrors are GONE! Yay!

LOTS and LOTS of my favorite Behr paint were used to turn that tired, dated bedroom ………….into……………

THIS

I replaced the old wall sconce with this industrial beauty I found on amazon.com, I’m really drawn to a hint of brass lately, and I am glad I settled on this fixture.

I used a PURE white on the wood accent half-wall, and went DARK for the upper half of my retreat.

I love how the contrast makes the room feel bright, as well as cozy!

I even have room for a little “crochet corner”

What a difference PAINT makes!!!

I LOVE my new bedroom!!

NOW………

Onto the next project!!!
