Master Bedroom Makeover

This was a basic room makeover I did of a master bedroom.  Keeping most of the existing furnishings and ALL of the existing finishes, I simply rearranged the furnishings, replaced the bedding and window treatments, and added a few accessories to tie it all together.

After

The viewpoint of both photos is from the doorway looking into the bedroom.  Taking out the blue recliner, and moving the bed to the adjacent wall, makes the room seem more open and spacious.  The new arrangement also makes it easier to enter, move through and use the space.

The darker tones and rich textures of the bedding and valances add a nice, balanced contrast with the light wood tones of the furnishings and neutral finishes of the room.  Removing the floral, more feminine fabrics in the room create a more gender-neutral room.

With very little money spent, an hour of labor, and a little creative thinking, this master bedroom looks totally refreshed and inviting!
