My Dream Bedroom Makeover!

January 22, 2019  House Tour | My House | Uncategorized

My hubby and I have been blissfully (well mostly!) married for 23 years. It’s also my 23rd anniversary with my bedroom furniture and while I won’t be trading in my husband, it’s definitely time to trade in my tired old furniture. I am excited to share my master bedroom makeover!

My poor bedroom has been neglected for far too long and she deserved a swan makeover! Over the years, I’ve made a few changes but the room still lacked pizazz. I’ve searched high and low for the perfect furniture to make my bedroom dreams come true.

Love the furniture choices in this bedroom makeover including black bed, oak chests in place of nightstands, oversized art, mid century lamps, lots of colorful accessories and texture kellyelko.com #bedroom #bedroomdecor #bedroomfurniture #bohostyle #bohodecor #eclecticdecor #bedding #nightstands #interiordecor #interiordecorate #bedroommakeover

Goodbye tiny nightstands with missing handles and worn finish.

Hello pair of Myra Accent Chests that I’m using as nightstands with tons of storage!

I love symmetry and I’ve always hated that there is a window on only one side of the bed so I added a huge piece of art to visually balance the space.

Beautiful bedroom with lots of texture from tassels, fringe, ruffles and velvet. Love the oversized art and the chest of drawers used in place of a nightstand. kellyelko.com #bedroom #bedroomdecor #bedroomfurniture #bohostyle #bohodecor #eclecticdecor #bedding #nightstands #interiordecor #interiordecorate #bedroommakeover #lighting

Black and white bedding is a perfect backdrop for colorful throw pillows.

I am in love with this cerused oak Auberge Dresser – the grain of the wood is beautiful. My girls silhouettes and a few of my favorite things are on display.

It’s all about little details including mortise and tenon joints.

A matching Myra Accent Chest is on my side of the bed. I love the more masculine feel and straight lines of the chest that I dolled up with a few favorite accessories.

Love this bedroom and the fun tassel blanket and chest of drawers as a nightstand kellyelko.com #bedroom #bedroomdecor #bedding #boho #eclecticdecor #interiordecor #midcentury

Every nightstand needs an amazing smelling candle and this little teacup is the perfect place to hold my jewelry.

Ruffles, fringe, velvet and tassels add tons of texture and interest to the bed.

The best part of the room is my comfy new mattress (my back has never been happier)!

There is nothing I love more than making a room beautiful but beauty doesn’t mean much if the room isn’t comfortable and that starts with a good mattress. My hubby and I had fun trying out a bunch at our local Raymour and Flanigan and ended up choosing this Beautyrest Black mattress and box spring with the help of the very knowledgeable manager who made the process painless.

Delivery was super quick – the very next day – and I love that we have 30 days to decide if it’s right for us (it is)! They set it up in my bedroom and even hauled away our old mattress.

Sushi really enjoys spending quality time here now that the room meets her high standards!

I love that adding a few key pieces and colorful accessories to my bedroom gave it a whole new look and feel and I couldn’t be happier with the result.

      No but maybe I should have. It would be fun to raise my hubby’s head up while he sleeps!

    You have a beautiful new bedroom so you should feel like a very important person, Sushi does. Where did you get that little bird on your dresser, looks like something special, it is so cute.

      How Sushi feels is really all that matters in life! The little alabaster dove is a vintage thrift store find.

    […] time in our bedrooms, I think we should put extra thought into decorating them. Since I shared my master bedroom makeover a few weeks ago, I have gotten tons of people asking where I got my rug, blanket, pillows, lamps […]
