Master Suite Make-over

For many years, Harry and I have wanted new bedroom furniture.  Well, who am I kidding?  I have wanted new furniture.  Harry, I think, was perfectly happy with the furniture that we had.....furniture that he contributed when we got married.  There was nothing wrong with his furniture, but it wasn't my taste at all!  Imagine that! 

I've been looking on and off for a while, but I found the furniture that I REALLY wanted a few weeks before Christmas, and we decided to bite the bullet and make the big purchase.  Of course, soon after the purchase, we realized that NOW was the time to remove the bedroom carpet and put down hardwood floors.  Our bedroom was the only room left downstairs that still had carpet.  So, we did that as well. 

Well, you can't have new floors and new furniture without getting new lamps, a new ceiling fan, and new bedding....right?  .....Right?  Add to that a few new picture frames and tassels for the existing drapes....and we're in business. 

The pictures below show off our new Master Retreat, as we like to call it.  Because, let's face it, for the first time in 6 1/2 years of marriage, we truly feel like we have a retreat in our very own home.

  1. Oh my, where to begin?? Those floors, that headboard, the ceiling fan, that bedding...it's just GORGEOUS! You're so right, it IS a Master Retreat! I can't even say how much I love it (and how completely jealous I am)! So, will you be renting it out, because I'm first in line!! You guys did such a great job. Now, would you please march on over to MY house and make over my bedroom? Pretty please? :-)
