Master Bedroom

On Friday I showed you my new lamps for my Master Bedroom, but my bed was so piled high full of laundry and the room needed a little tidying up, that I couldn't show you how they looked in the rest of the room. Just keeping it real...am I the only one with this problem sometimes???
So here's what the room looks like now:




Here's where I do most of my blogging...I am searching for a floor lamp for the far side of the chair.



I love the finish on the lamps...maybe something similar, but a little darker for my lamps in the Dining Room?




Just to remind you what it looked like before:


After
I would love to get a white matelasse coverlet and change the bedskirt. Shhhhhh, don't tell Mr. Fanatic that I'd like to paint the walls a pale blue. That's the color I wanted to paint this room a few years ago, but blue wasn't a popular color then. Should have gone with my first instinct!
Of course, I still have yet to make an upholstered headboard!
So many projects, so little time!

Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Pam




The brown paint color is Warm Earth by Behr

Your room is stunning. I love the lamps and I also like the color of the walls and the bedding. Everything looks wonderful. Hugs, Marty

Great choice! I love the lamps. I like the more neutral tone (the others looked a bit gold to me) and I like that the light is refracted both upward and downward. I noticed you changed the pillows on the bed and I like that too. Personally, I love the wall color, but then I don't know that I'd be truly happy sleeping in a room this color. I need sea tones. So, go with your heart and the blue. Can't wait to see what it looks like. Oh, and I won't breathe a word about the matelasse since I'm planning on getting one too. Shhhh!

Where did you get your mirrored end table??? So pretty!!!Your Master is beautiful! I love everything and think your current comforter and room color looks GREAT...but I understand wanting a "change"!

Nancy said...

I love the neutral colors in there now, and covet those side tables! We don't have a single 'headboard' in our home haha we have old gates and ironwork look alike from Kirkland's and Hobby Lobby ;)

Sandy said...

Please, before you change the wall color could you tell me the name and make of the paint color you have now.. I just love it! My room has been robins egg blue for several years now and I'm ready for that change.. and your master is just beautiful.. darker walls are better...
thank you

Love the new lamps and I have been looking for a decent priced matelasse coverlet for my bed, too.

Your room is fantastic Pam! Everything just is so well put together. I really need an overhaul in my master...I just never come up with finding art I like...

You have a beautiful room and the lamps are a big improvement. The mirrored stands are gorgeous!

here i am thinking how much i love the dark color, since with the size it can clearly accomodate it-and then you say you want to change it, lol. i admit-i had to scroll up and down a few times to see the changes, but i really like what you've done by your nightstand, and with the art piece on the wall by it. i think it looks great!

Love the room, love the lamps, love the new position of the wall plaque...the pillows look great too (but I did like the blue for the punch of color it gave)
Happy Valentine's Day Pam!

Love the lamps and the pillow changes. Your room is beautiful. I think I will now incorporate a coverlet on my bed.

Looks very nice. I am very curious about the shiny night stand. Is it mirrored?

Pamela said...

Pam your bedroom is sooo beautiful and calming! I wait to get mine that way.

Joselyn said...

Visiting from BNOP. Your bedroom is absolutely stunning and magazine ready! Beautifully done!

Faith, Trust, and a Little Pixie Dust said...

Oh my goodness, what a beautiful and serene bedroom. LOVE IT! Especially the way you have the comforter folded at the bottom of the bed.

Warmly, Michelle

Marianne@Songbird said...

Your bedroom looks wonderful. I can't get over the fact how big your bedrooms are in the States. It is a huge space. But you made it lovely and cozy!

Willow said...

Your room looks lovely. I am in the process of redoing ours and I have chosen blue for the walls. Happy Valentine Day.

susan said...

Pam-This is just beautiful...both the before and after! I don't think those of us who love design are ever truly finished with any room! I have the same magnolia print in my living room. I can't wait to see the headboard. I love the upholstered ones! Happy Valentine's Day!

Paige @ The Wandering Cottage said...

Lovely! I posted my room too! Stop by and say Hi!

Karen@StrictlySimpleStyle said...

The lamps look perfect in your room. I could definitely see the walls painted blue. I'll bet that wouldn't be too hard a sell to your husband, most men seem to like the color blue.

Your metamorphosis is absolutely fabulous. I so hope that you enjoy every bit of it.

Have a very Happy Valentine's Day!

Traci said...

I love how it looks! It's so funny how changing something as small as a pair of lamps makes such a difference. My MBR is on my to do list.

Pam, I have learned over time (and mistakes) to GO WITH YOUR GUT and not "trends" and what is popular! YOU have to live in your home so do what you love. That being said I love the color on your walls. Your mirrored tables are ggorgeous! What is the covering on the end tables? Is it just a placemat or something else? I love your master. We are doing our office right now(see my post) and next is our master too!!!! Happy V day!!!! XO, Pinky

Kathy said...

Very lovely...I need new lamps and have been looking for sometime now. I like the height on yours!

Connie said...

Beautiful room and yes, it would be great in blue.

Southwest Cottage Designs said...

Beautiful master bedroom! The lamps made the difference - very nice.

Betsy said...

Love those new lamps. They seem more to scale and the color looks great. I think the entire room is so cozy, you'd never get me out of that chair.

Jemsmom said...

Those lamps are fantastic!! Your bedroom is so cozy. I have to tell you that I love that initial in that frame! I just kept looking at it thinking how neat it was. I may have to do that!
