a once upon a time master bedroom remodel ♥

hi ♥ how are ya?

as i was writing this post i realized that i'm really bad at tying up loose ends...

are you?

i'm super ambitious about starting new projects...i totally over do it...then i'm burnt out

i want to be more simple

and i think over the course of this past year, that's really changed for me :)

i'm learning how to use my time for the things that are important

i'm learning how important it is to stay on top of things

meal planning, cleaning, laundry, filing...

if i just take the time to maintain those things, then i'm not staring at a huge pile of paper to shred, or maybe a meal that's not be started and it's going on 6:30 (yikes)

(i'm a really bad procrastinator too)

so in an effort to keep my self disciplined and stay on top of things, I wanted to show you some more of the love i put into our home...then have you hold me accountable for the "loose ends" 

that are still waiting for me to get busy!

this is a sweet little tour of our master bedroom that we worked on last year...i wanted to make it a resting place for both of us...quiet & romantic :)

so often the little things in marriage are lost in the busyness of life or the raising of our kids...

those little things are the things i wanted to capture in this room

(even if it's when you're completely exhausted 

and you can barley keep your eyes open to enjoy them)

come on in and see ♥

the previous owners did us a wonderful favor 
by installing beautiful hardwoods throughout the house 
it was much easier to plan the renovation 
without having to worry about tearing anything up!


this is the room when we purchased the house 6 years ago...

the chandy is from Home Depot...the ceiling medallion was made from an old mirror frame and some batting & fabric...i want to share how i did it with you soon :)

this dresser was a goodwill find

here it was waiting to be helped :) i got it for 39.99 folks...

spray paint + lace + hardware = ♥

 hubs built this simple frame and covered it with radiator metal 
as a way to camoflauge the satellite box and still have the remote signal work

is anyone interested in instructions for this?

i'm sure he has plans...if i didn't lose them :)

it still needs something on top of it to sort of help it blend in...

i'm searching for old books at yard sales

maybe some white vases next to it too?

take a peek around this corner...it's all things pretty ♥

found the desk at a yard sale for $10 the stool too...but that still needs to be recovered

i have the lace to make a skirt around the bottom of the desk, 

to look more fancy instead of office-ish

the spider hook for the scarves is from Hobby Lobby

 these window treatments & most of the pillows were made with vintage hankies and linens that were thrifted or given to me (by family who knows i like old stuff :)

these white lamps? used to be this:

the major renovation done to this room (building wise) was the board & batten wall behind the bed, hubs added crown molding to act as a shelf to hold frames & candles ♥

now that pretty dresser from before...well that's mine

this is my hubs and it need something  above it...

thinking it's going to involve maps :)

 just a few details...

MasterBed To-Do List:

map art above dresser

line dresser drawers

some sort of lace added to corners of canopy

pearl tie backs for canopy panels

recover stool & make skirt for vanity

thanks  for spending some time with me! 

i hopefully with have the craft table plans up soon 

along with some new photos on my ♥about page

come back and check it out! 

much loves to you
