Master Bedroom Reveal

So I finally got my bedroom where I want it to be!  I showed it to you in progess here, and said I wanted a mirrored bed to replace the four poster.  They were quite expensive, so I ended up with this one (you can click it to see the details):



I'm really happy it with it and after a client saw it, she ordered it too.  It was only $550 for a King, which I thought was pretty good.  Here it is in its setting:

The pillows were there from before. Oh, that reminds me, let me show you a before picture. I liked it for the eight years we had it, but it was sooo traditional and monochromatic, and the shades were really heavy.  This picture quality stinks, but it's all I have:

I kept the paint color, painted a lot of the furniture black, and changed the curtains.  These are from Target, $10 each. I added the black grosgrain ribbon (1.5 inches) with fabric glue. (I'm super annoyed that the throw pillow is messed up in the photo, but I don't have time to take a new one right now!)

The mirror over the bed is from Home Goods.  The white slip covered chair came from the guest room.  I did buy the bench new from Horchow, but it was moderately priced (at least for Horchow):

Someone asked me for a link to the Black and White Zebra Print Rug so here it is....just click the image:

I had the huge standing mirror in storage (can you believe I wasn't using it?)  I had the blue/gray table, but bought fabric at Joann's for $6 a yard and made a fitted cover for it (you don't want to know how. Let's just say there was no sewing, but there WAS a staple gun involved).  The lamps, which you can't really see, are gorgeous french wired crystal from Home Goods:

I also painted the doors black. I love it in this room.  After doing these, I immediately went and did  my kitchen doors, but they looked awful.  It made the kitchen soooo dark, so they are white again now. I hate when I try a project and it turns out to be a total waste of time.

We put the chandeliers up Friday, and they are my favorite thing in my whole house (Overstock finds!)  They are very white in person, not creamy like this photo makes them appear.  I love how the back one is reflected in the mirror and it looks like there are three. Actually, I did buy three - the third will eventually go over the bed, but we have to raise the ceiling fan all the way up to the ceiling first and take the light kit off of it. It will be very low profile then, but it is quite a project, so it is still on the to do list.)

I still have to paint that mirror on the right silver, which I hadn't even noticed until now. Funny how you get blind to a room when you are in it so much. I always take photos of rooms I'm working on, even if I'm not going to post them, because I think it gives a new perspective and helps me see things I might otherwise miss. And when there is a problem in a room, there's nothing like a digital image to highlight it!

So, I'm really excited about our new bedroom on a budget! Thanks for reading and please consider following and/or sharing:)
