Finished!

Well, one room down and one more to go and we will officially be carpet free! We're hoping that will help with all the allergies and it certainly looks better. I still have to rework the decor a little bit in here, but for now here's what I did:









I took out a nightstand and angled Kevin's chest in the corner. I think it creates the illusion of more space. Plus, I felt it was a little too symetrical with the nightstands and matching lamps. Too matchy matchy. I took out the fake tree because I am so over it. It was a dust magnet and it was fake. What was I thinking with that??? Instead I think I am going to buy a comfy, white armchair from IKEA and black floor lamp and make the other corner next to the nightstand a little reading area - if there's room and I think there is. I also took the bedskirt off of the bed because it really served no purpose. I'd like to get some of the under-the-bed baskets for linens and other things instead. I am also thinking of all white bedding, but am not sure yet. I still need to get a couple of things for the top of my dresser and nightstand - maybe some pillar candles or a vase for flowers?? Not sure yet!!!

I'm happy to have this room done! I think a lot of people neglect their master bedrooms and here is why I think that's a mistake: it's the only space in your home that's just yours. It should be somewhere you can go and feel relaxed, not just a place where you throw your clothes and go to sleep at night. So get some paint in a color you love and clean up the clutter!! You'll be glad you did!
