Mini Make Over

Longtime readers of our blog know that J has basically taken over 3 rooms in our house her Bedroom , game room and her Bathroom. All of those rooms are decorated to her wishes and i was happy to accommodate, even when her request was a major challenge (monkey bathroom). Anyway, the one room in our house that has remained totally untouched is the master bedroom. Today i decided to do something nice for ME...just a little mini make over nothing huge, but it makes me very happy! (the pics do not show off its cuteness...so come visit ok?)

before pics
the slider leads out to the back patio and pool
white white white everywhere! tooooo much white!

we covered the window totally to block out all light, we get plenty with the slider and never open that window anyway. i decided to take the curtains wall to wall and ceiling to floor.
i fell in love with the quilt as soon as i saw it and it was a really great deal!

i am gonna paint too, i am thinking a nice buttery tan, when i find the energy to do it. For now the curtained wall and cute quilt and shams makes a huge difference. YAY ME!! OH and Big Daddy really likes it too...he is so easy like that!

I like it! I especially like the curtan behind the bed and over the window. I am so not brave when it comes to decorating but I love the way it looks when other people do it so then I get the itch to change things as well.

What a great idea! You and Meg sure are the decrating queens. I have to see something first, (which is why I adore IKEA) to be able to be inspired to do something similar.

I love it! With the curtains hung like that your room seems much bigger. Buttery tan walls would be pretty.

This reminds me I need to finish my own room makeover. I still need to pick out paint.

I really like the curtain idea...it really adds to the room. Tan walls will be very nice too, very warm and comforting!! great job...when does Jordan come home??

It's great! LOVE LOVE LOVE the huge red curtain!

A friend of ours painted their living room in "gourmet mushroom" color . . . I think it would look WONDERFUL in your new room :-)
