Our Master Bedroom with Some Updates

One of the first rooms I painted when we moved into our home back in November was our master bedroom. I went with White Dove which wasn't a very exciting color choice but I liked the idea that it would allow me to mix things up a little bit color-wise in here because at the time I was undecided what directly I wanted to go. When we moved in I pretty much put all of the brown items from the den/study in our last house in here and I really liked how it looked overall but I didn't like how it flowed with the master bathroom which has lots of marble and gray and white tones. It was nice though having a space that felt put together though. Once we got a bit more settled though and I started working on the bonus room I ended up moving all of the brown stuff into that room (we haven't shared it yet because I still have some more projects I want to finish up in there but you can see a few little peeks on our @dearlilliedaily instagram account). Once I did that I moved some of our navy and cream pillows and throws up here and added a couple more that I found at Target and I like how that flows with our master bathroom. I just painted the walls in there a very dark navyish black color. I am hoping to hang the light fixture in there tomorrow and then take photos of that later this week so hopefully will have those to share soon. So overall I feel like our master bedroom and bathroom now have a much more cohesive look plus I like how it flows from the upstairs hallway (there is a picture of that a few images down in this post).

I love this navy and cream rug we found at HomeGoods. When we found the correct size rug for our living room we moved it up here to see how it would look up here. Unfortunately due to the fact that the rug itself weighs a ton and so does the bed we got it rather awkwardly stuck underneath and that's how it's staying until we have time to remove the mattresses and flip the bed up to get the rug underneath better, which seeing how that's something I can't do on my own it may be a while before it gets done. I layered our cowhide rug over on one side of it to help balance it a little bit. So basically what I am saying is don't judge to harshly on the rug placement - ha!

I took most of these photos a couple of weeks ago and things have already changed a little bit in here, the large mirror is now downstairs in my office and there's a piece of artwork there now. And the "creepy lady" (I actually like her a lot but I think I am the only one) has found a different spot now and there's a wedding photo of ours up there now (I took a few photos of that and they are sprinkled in the post). The trunk is at the end of our bed for now and will stay there until I find the right sized bench which has turned out to be little bit trickier than I thought it would be.

Here's one of our wedding photos that has replaced the painting of the lady. 

And here is the look from the hallway into our room:

You can see a little bit of our master bathroom through that doorway:
