We are making headway in our decisions for the master bedroom... I'll recap briefly what I bought yesterday... two of these shower curtains from West Elm for our under the eves closets.
Don't you think a headboard like this would go nicely? I'm going to make it with the tutorial found here.
As for the bed linens... My parents got us this amazing set from Restoration Hardware for our wedding but I think we will keep that in the guest bedroom because I have already painted those walls a RH color to match the bedding SO I'm brainstorming something else for the master... maybe like this, but picture a white coverlet and a quilt, like this one from the Home Decorators Collection, folded at the end of the bed.
My excitement about having the room in varying shades of gray came from my total love of Cararra marble. I am going to refinish this dresser in a gleaming white. It'll be our mini double sink console. Pretty good for a $20 thrift store find, right? I'm thinking my fave marble on top and two undermount white bowl sinks that I found at the unbelievable Building Supply Outlet in Peabody. Sidenote: oh my goodness, is it hard to take decent photos in our poorly lit basement...
When I'm looking at the darker finish these photos will be good inspiration for me of what it will look like... with those fun towel racks:
This Old House
Country Living
And you know what else I'm excited about? The fun accent colors we can play with... I just love pink and yellow with gray and I'm already picturing some pink peonies on our nightstands...:)
And I nearly forgot... the other DIY project I want to complete: a bench for the end of the bed, like pictured:
That's all for now! Anyone else dreaming of creating a room from scratch?
