Updating Our Master Bedroom: Phase One New Rug

Several of you have asked me to share more house pictures and updates.  The truth is my house is always in a constant state of change and upheaval.   I feel like it is never quite finished.  I love Frances Moon's nursery and it feels complete,  but the rest of the rooms in our house I am constantly switching things around, rearranging,  and redecorating.  The main rooms I want to focus on and update this year are Sterling's room, our Master bedroom and bathroom.  

I decided to start on our Master first.  We recently got a King Bed from my sweet in-laws,  which we love- game changer for our marriage and sleeping habits I tell you!    After that Biscuit Home helped me out with our bedding which I adore.  If you need new Bedding Biscuit Home is the way to go, their bedding is so soft and gorgeous. I have the gray border duvet and shams.  So far that is all we have done in the Master is work on the bed.

 I decided to compile a list of updates I want to do to our Master to keep me on track:

ONE \\ New Rug
TWO \\ New bedside lamps
THREE \\ Matching bedside tables
FOUR \\ Headboard, preferably upholstered
FIVE \\ artwork
SIX \\ New light fixture- I so want to ditch our ugly fan
SEVEN \\ new paint color ?

A few bedrooms that are my inspiration.  I am drawn to blue tones, grays, and neutrals.  Also as you can see I prefer an all white bed with slight color on the accent pillows.  I still really want a Moroccan Wedding Blanket too!





Step one for Master Bedroom Update was a new rug.  Rugs USA was sweet enough to work with me and send us a new rug for our bedroom.
I chose the Jimuta Dawn Overdye Rug and I am really pleased with it!


Check it out in our bedroom.  I like how it is faded and the colors blend together,  that is just the look I was going for!  I love rugs with a real worn in look.  The rug is a little more brown than it looks in the picture online, but our room is neutral so it worked just fine.  The rug has the texture and look of a softer jute rug in person.
Notice Matt's shoes in the corner he never picks his stuff up, constant battle around here!



Rugs USA has a great selection of rugs.  A few of my other favorites.  I had a hard time choosing!

Now that rug is done, my next step is matching lamps and bed side tables.  Currently Matt doesn't even have a bedside lamp, poor guy has to read at night with my kindle book light.  I keep hoping to find some cheap ones at Homegoods or TJMaxx but no luck so far!

I love the look of this acrylic side table but I am afraid I might miss having drawers.  So not sure what I will do for side tables. No matter what I want matching ones because right now they are mismatched and I hate it!
I will keep you guys updated along the way as I make progress!
