One of my New Year’s Resolutions was to redo the master bedroom
A few years ago I got tired of all the serene green and added some floral and polka dot pillows to liven things up
But I got tired of that too, all those perky polka dots were making me a little nuts
I asked HHjr if he would get his guys to paint my room and bath when they had some down time…thinking it would be a while and I would eventually go look at paint colors and bedcover options…
Silly me, it was only a day or two later when he said, “It would really help me out if we could paint your room today, our scheduled job is delayed”
“Hmmm…well, as long as I don’t have to do/move anything…” I replied
“No problem, they will do everything. What color?” he asked
“I was thinking of a creamy white” I said
“I know just the right paint color” he said, “you’ll love it!”
And just like that…
I had a bright new room!
I ordered this crazy bright salmon pink quilt from Wayfair and hit Home Goods for some creamy pillows
All my accessories blended right in…that’s the great thing about decorating with a black and white basic palette, it will go with any color you want to put with it
There is a comfy chair for reading or watching TV, with a painted vase that is also a wine cooler
On one night table there is a special box holding a cherished Mother’s Day bookmark from one of my children
Across the room is a sitting area with a table I can use as a desk
On the table is my Valentine memory cube, a special heart ornament and a vase full of MacKenzie-Childs blooms
There is also a decoupaged bottle vase that I will post the tutorial for tomorrow
The room is like a blank canvas, lots of pretty white spaces to fill with paintings and art
I hung the recently painted “Pink Flower Therapy” in the bathroom
I repainted the purple blooms on the Hot House Flowers painting between the windows
into a creamy, shadowy white
The painting over the bed, Rose Garden, still blends well and it’s one of my favorites
I can’t describe what a difference this paint made in both the bedroom and the bathroom
Even though they were both painted with fairly light colors before, the white makes them so much brighter and they feel so much bigger!
I smile every time I walk in~
There is definitely a lot of “flower therapy” going on!
Do you hate the coral quilt? When I first got it, I wasn’t sure I would keep it, but it’s such a happy pop of color… my 6 year old grandson said, “wow, Gigi, that is really cool!”
I plan on changing it periodically, maybe to a more neutral gold in the fall and a winter white after that…the bright salmon pink certainly helped on those cold dreary January/February days!
