When your child says your bedroom looks like cave, you know it's time for a change...
Sadly, I wish I would have taken just one before picture, so you know what I started with.
Keep in mind, It had been 15 years sense it had been decorated.
Floral bed spread, Faux finish on the walls, you know the glazes from Ralph Lauren at Home Depot. Mine was in a light olive green. I actually really liked it, it was just dated and I wanted the new room to be simple, a place that made me feel relaxed.
Picking the new color for the walls was a lot harder than I thought...
I wanted the room to be light and airy with a beachy feel. So I decided on a very light blue.
But, after buying 2 different colors of blue (which looked more like a baby nursery) I ended up going with a light gray, which I love...it's perfect.
Then there was our brass bed. I really liked the "bones" of the bed, but I really hated the brass. So I sent it out and had it powder coated black ($60 for the head & foot board)
I decided to only use the headboard this time around.
Here is the after...

Found this pretty wool rug (Target)
The picture (Home Goods) reminds me of the beach where Kurt & I spend a lot of our free time.
The chair, was also a Target.com find. Did I tell you I LOVE Target...

Bead news...
I have felt somewhat like a dentist over the last few days making lots of teeth.
I have also been working on some new fine silver pieces, so those will be coming to the website soon!
Have a great weekend.
