Project Bedroom Bright: The Plan

Remember our master bedroom? Yeah, I like it, but my slick black, white, and grey palette was thwarted by the snowy greys of a real winter- something I didn't expect. It isn't all gloom & doom with a Pittsburgh winter, but it's enough to make me crave some color!!

Enter: Project Bedroom Bright

The Plan...

This is a very quick, rough mock up of what I intend to do. Time frame is several months- some of these projects can't be completed until warm weather. Furniture & arrangement all stays the same (this isn't a real re-design, more like a face-lift). And don't worry, the sheep and little bird stay. My plan includes....

• new mattress & bedding

• paint the grey walls white (black stays!)

• paint the window trim & closet doors white

• paint bed frame white

• refinish floor w/dark stain (consistent with downstairs)

• add touches of neon color to "Hard Day's Night" board

• paint chartreuse stripes behind said "HDN" board

• paint current night stands chartreuse

• refinish old desk with graphic chartreuse gradient

• spray paint desk stool electric blue

• switch out more colorful accessories/photos

• switch knobs on Hemnes & closet with these

Like I said, not a fast project by any means (or really, that big of a visual one), but it should help infuse a bit of hue into the room. The floor has to wait until it's in the 60's at least (and we're doing it ourselves), but I might tackle the other painting projects earlier, we'll just see. That being said, the new mattress and bedding are almost all here now, so look for more on those pretty soon!!

Sweet dreams!
