B is for bedding.

Once a year my husband goes off on a little skiing adventure or a business trip of some kind.  As a result, it has become a pattern for me to try to tackle some big project while he is gone.  The first year I tried this, I was half way through painting our bedroom and then Wham-O, I got a horrible case of mastitis. Not fun. Well this year is not any different.  Again, I wanted to tackle the master bedroom and calm the gray storm that we had going on.  Here is a rough before of our bed, after I had just painted the room.

Once again, I failed to get before shots of the old paint color.   It was a Slate Roof Gray, which was very blue and it was in complete competition with all the bed room furniture.  So I painted it Filoli Carriage House.  Here Is a picture of the tray that I still have left to paint.  I kind of like the contrast, and am thinking of using a stencil of some kind for just the tray.  Something to add a little drama.

Again, the old color is on top, and the new is on the walls

You can't have a new bedroom color with out revamping the bedding.  I scored this little number at Target and am loving it. It almost looks like a grown up bedroom!  It is amazing how changing a couple of things can bring life to a dull space.  

I have one more piece to do for the master and then I will give a complete tour, unless I decide to paint my bedroom furniture!  I think I need an intervention!
