Master

I usually like this room least of any in my house. So I cleaned it really good (even the blinds and windows) and bought new bedding and curtains this week. I had to get something new since we have decided that Luke is allergic to my down comforter and nothing else is big enough to fit this mattress. It is a queen but it is a tempurpedic and so thick that I have to use king to cover it the way I want. And I know these curtains look exactly like my old curtains but they are new. The old ones were so faded and I have had them for so many houses I forgot how old they are. These ones are fancy fake suede from Walmart (yes I am FANCY). The new quilt was Walmart too--BUT the new Better Homes and Garden brand (see!). I like quilts, not comforters (I even covered the down with a quilt)--I have to match the old quilts on my quilt rack!

That is a pink stuffed star hanging from the ceiling fan (ceiling fans are decorating no nos too). It has a story from when we first started dating and it has been in every bedroom we have ever had.

This is my favorite new thing in here. I had something totally different here before. I found these shutters in my favorite junk store for 4 dollars (already painted). Now I finally figured out what to do with them. I found them at the end of November.


And the master bath. I never showed this room before. I finally found that metal tile thing and like it so much better than the old shelf I put there before. I also added sponges in a glass vase from an idea Wendy had. And to use something else black (like the tile) I used the metal southern living flower pot to put more bath stuff in. You can only see one door but each side of the tub are doors and those are our closets. The potty is inside another door to the left.


There is a vase of sticks on this counter but I can't even see them in this picture. Luke will probably hate that and I may have to get rid of them when he comes home. I also leave out the toothpaste and toothbrushes--that is another big decorating no no. I do not have a medicine cabinet and I hate digging through my drawers for a toothbrush--I don't want to lay a wet toothbrush in a drawer. Since my potty is in it's own room with a door I don't care about the germ issue.

Okay one more room and confession time coming up next.
