Master Bedroom Inspiration Pics

I am in the process of making over our master bedroom, and by process, I mean everything looks like total crap and nothing is really done yet.  I was hoping to show you some progress today, but I am incredibly sick with a bad cold.  Instead, I will show you my bedroom inspiration file that has inspired the makeover.  
I love the mirror over the bed and I found a very similar one at Walmart.com.  It’s sitting in my closet right now waiting to be hung!

I love the cool color pallette in the pic below.

I’m not sure what those fuzzy things are above the headboard, but I like them.

I like the wall color and contrast between the dark furniture and white bedding.

I LOVE this next picture.  That mirror is gorgeous and the bench perfect.  The wall color is pretty fabulous too.

Sigh.  Do you know that I could have had exposed beams in my bedroom and for some insane reason didn’t push for it?  At the time the beams were absolutely covered in pigeon poop (yes, pigeons had completely taken over the top level of our home before it was gutted) and the thought of avian flu was freaking me out.  Granted, they would have been sanded down and restained, but at the time they just looked diseased.   This bedroom is gorgeous.  I love everything about it. (You’re still stuck on pigeon poop, aren’t you? Sorry about that. Kinda ruins the mood of the photo, huh?  That’s what I was scared it would do for me in my bedroom.)

This Heather Chadduck bedroom has inspired many a bedroom makeover in the blogosphere and mine is no exception.  I think this bedroom was done about 5 yrs ago and it still looks fresh.

I’m honestly not crazy about curtain-type headboards but I love the fabric…and I think the riding boots draw me to this picture!
Again, love the wall color and white bedding here.
Exposed beams, great chandy, fabulous mirror over the mantel, what’s not to love?
The ceiling is what I want in the pic below.  It makes the bedroom.

Love the flokati rug, wall color, and capiz shell chandy.

Hopefully if my cold improves, I’ll be able to show you some progress on how I’ve interpreted this inspiration and made it my own.  Until then, enjoy the eye candy!

  1. these are some incredible inspiration pics! love them!

    i told another blogger just now that i would LOVE to do mine, but we are on a ZERO BUDGET! HA HA!

    when the old house sales (AHAHAH) maybe we can move our boxsprings and matress off the floor and get to work in there and maybe buy the furniture i dream of having!

    can't wait to see what you do!

  2. I just came across your page from Fingerprints On The Fridge. I just re-did my room- come over to my blog and see it. The whole thing cost me about $100. 🙂

  4. Oh, I feel your pain…I've had this darned cold for more than two weeks and I think I'm creating my own problems because the second I feel better, I do all the things I longed to do while I felt horrible, then I get too tired and start all over again. Hope you're feeling better soon.

  5. Feel better friend….everyone i know has one…knocking wood I stay cold free.

    Thanks for the eye candy…I love it all….ours needs to be redone…it was done 5 years ago..

    I can't wait to see what you've done !!!

    All the best,
    Kathy 🙂

  6. Drooooooooooool!

    Your inspiration photos are so beautiful and your design talent is so ginormous….I cannot wait to see what you do!!

    Isn't it incredible what places like Walmart have available now???

  10. Beth I really love some of those bedroom, they remind me of the quiet calm I'm trying to create in mine (imagine that with three boys!)
    Anywho, I'll have to post pics when it's done. Have a great day
    Love Vanessa

  11. Omgosh the pic with the mirrored nightstand + ghost chairs totally did it for me! Love the image with the mirror over the bench too :o)

  12. Oh yeah, and I think the piece above the bed is a Cameroon headdress called a "juju". LOVE LOVE LOVE those.

  13. So sorry to hear you're sick, friend. Feel better soon.

    I love the inspiration pics, especially the 3rd one and the last one. Beauty!

  14. So sorry you're not feeling well. Funny that you posted bedroom inspiration photos when you're probably lying there in your bed. That's the thing with bedrooms. We want them to be multi-taskers. They need to be comforting when we're sick, restful when we're tired, romantic when we're happy, sexy when we're feeling amorous. Hmmm. Master bedrooms are kind of like moms, aren't they?

  15. I love them all….even the fuzzy things over the bed, it adds texture and interest…..maybe you can make something like feather wreaths???

  16. Beautiful! Those are gorgeous. I love the serene, restful colors. My mom did her house with Restoration Hardware paint colors, and it looks amazing. Perfect for a bedroom. I think I will go back to this when I get a bedroom of my own again. Love it!

  17. Thanks for posting these !! Perfect timing as I'm in the middle of redoing our master bedroom in blues/creams/golds. Of course, it'll never be as gorgeous as these inspirational pics, but they are wonderful eye candy all the same !! Take care, Becca (Adventures in Decorating)

  18. OK…THANK YOU for posting that Country Living pic with the toile and gorgeous mirror! We have that same bedding and I was thinking of this wall color but could never figure out exactly what it was i wanted…this is it! You r amazing. i hope you feel better soon! We just got rid of some crappy thing here!

  19. I love each and every picture. I found something I just had to have in each one, yet I barely have room to walk around in my bedroom as it is!

    I can't freak out over pigeon poop when I know we had bats in the attic above our master. Now that is yuk!!

    xoxo

  21. Pretty pretty!! I want to do our room too, but first I need to clean it out. (blushing) It's become a dumping ground for all the clothes I can't cram into our closet. :s

    We have very big, very heavy, very dark wood furniture. I think we need to go light.

    How are you doing today?????

  23. All beautiful pics. I'm excited to see how your bedroom turns out!
    I've chosen a similar color pallette for my living room makeover. Have a good day! Lisa

  24. You've got some great inspiration pics, Beth! Can't wait to see how you did yours ~ I'm sure it's gorgeous! I redid our master a few years ago and I have the greyed blue on my walls and it really just made the bedroom so relaxing and serene. I still love it.

  25. So are you going blue on the walls? We just did our bedroom in blue. I went thru several colors to get one I liked… blue is tough!

  26. I LOVE your inspiration photos! I am still in the process of trying to figure out what I want in mine, but the ideas are finally coming together! The "fuzzy things above the bed" are Cameroon Juju hats. I love them too. I want a red one for my hallway, but they are very expensive! {$300+} that's why I came up with the idea to try to MAKE one….hmmmm!!!! =D My DIY juices are flowing!

  27. When my kids are grown… I may do something that "WHITE" and all pretty! if it were now, the first trip one of my kids took to my room with cheeto fingers or chocolate milk…….. DONE! HA! love the white with the dark too. I love dark wood, light wood, and light colors mixed!
