Gold Dipped Wooden Planter & Dresser Styling

You know when you're watching home buying shows on TV and the agent tells the client that you can make cosmetic changes, but the one thing you can't change is the location? Yeah. I sort of feel that way about thrift store shopping. But, instead of a bad location (like a house) something at the thrift store might be total trash or completely unusable. (Tell me I'm not the only one who wonders how some of that stuff has even made it onto the shelves). Other items might just need that easy cosmetic change.

[Project Notebook] Master Bedrooms

I shared some tweaking I had made to our master bedroom earlier this week. (You can see the full post here.) But, before I began those changes I searched for inspiration to guide me and inspire me.  These were the top 5 favorite bedrooms that I found.

Side Table Revamp & Master Bedding

We got so much snow this weekend. How about you?  All I can say is thank goodness for kind neighbors with snow blowers or I'm not sure we ever would have dug ourselves out!

 

While my boys were out snow fort building and Pokémon training I revamped some of the accessories and small pieces of furniture in our master bedroom.

 

 

[Project Notebook] Boys Bedroom Plans

I've mentioned that both of my boys wanted their rooms updated in the new year and they both had very specific requests.

Gennaro, (just turned nine), wanted better lighting (specifically, a lamp like the one in the Pixar logo), a rug, new curtains and better display storage for his figurines.

Dresser Styling and Pom-Pom Garland

I've been working on our master bedroom for was seems like absolutely forever.  (In reality its only been since October when I participated in the MyColor™ inspired by Pantone® Painting Party.)

Milk Glass and Silhouettes

If you stopped by last week to see my MyColor™ inspired by Pantone^® Painting Party project than you may have noticed my little silhouette gallery wall.  (You can check out that full post here and also enter to win your own paint!)

 

 

[My Project Notebook]

(I always have a ton of decorating and DIY ideas floating around in my head. Many of them end up in my project notebook that I keep in my nightstand. I thought it would be fun if I shared some of my ideas with you all each week.)

I'm planning a sort of mini master bedroom makeover.  There are some key pieces that I want (like an antique mantel and a second quilt for my bed) that I know will take time to find in my price range, so the entire process will, most likely, be done in stages.


1. Old layered mirrors--I can definitely achieve this with thrift store finds.
