The walls are painted Boothbay Gray by Benjamin Moore. After choosing a shade of gray for every rooom in our home, I can say that this is the one I did not pick well. I am so happy with our other grays, but this one went totally blue on me. I would love to repaint at some point, but just don't have it in me right now. The color is very lovely, it's just not what I had envisioned for the space.
I feel like this room has a good foundation laid, with the bed, dressers, bedding and curtains, but now it needs some finishing touches. Currently there is a ceiling fan which will soon be switched out for a chandelier (more on that below).
In the corner is the door that leads to our tiny little master bath.
Don't you love the large floor mirror my parents got me for Christmas? It makes dressing in the morning so nice. If you look very closely in the mirror you can see some trim on our closet is missing. This is because our closet doesn't have doors at all, and we purchased French doors to remedy that situation. We're in the process of getting them installed (finally...we've only lived here a year : )
If you remember our last house, our bedroom looks mostly the same - same furniture, bedding, curtains, etc. Eventually I might change the curtains, although honestly I still really like the softness the simple white ($5!) sheers bring to the room. It feels incredibly peaceful and tranquil all the time.
So
here is what will be added/changed. I've already purchased the French style chandelier and am excited to get it installed. I will be keeping
our white pinch pleat bedding, but adding the Pottery Barn Samantha duvet at the end of the bed along with two Euro pillows. I've also purchased the
mirrored Hayworth nightstand for Matt's side of the bed (as great as the
plywood table I've had since I was 10 has been...it was time for an
upgrade!). Actually, the Hayworth line from Pier 1 was the inspiration
for our entire room when we were married. It is why I bought the white
bedding and chose the bed I did. This is the first piece of the line I have actually
purchased, but the silver and mirrored look was what sparked my
direction three years ago.
So there's where we are and where we're headed. Stay tuned for updates as things progress! Have a great weekend! I think I hear that vanity and a paint brush calling my name...
