Sharing is caring!

Here is my master bedroom makeover reveal, complete with shopping list!

Make sure you follow me on Instagram and Pinterest for a sneak peek into my recent projects!

The day is finally here. I have to say I’m oh-so-excited to finally share this space with you. I spent over a year planning out our master bedroom so it would be just perfect, and I think it’s now my favorite space in the house! C’mon… let’s take a tour.

Large master bedroom with dark framed bed and armchair in corner.We’ve had this black furniture for 10 years now. I really didn’t want to spend money on anything new, so I built my bedroom around the furniture, playing off the gold hardware. So instead of a yellow and gray bedroom like you’ve seen around the web recently, I mixed it up a bit with more of a gold or bronze metallic feel instead.

Black bed frame with white bedding and mirror over bed.Finding this duvet cover from Pottery Barn was a match made in heaven. Lots of gray tones with little pops of gold.Paint:

White and grey pillows on bed.The nightstands are filled with a couple family photos and little places to keep my jewelry at night.

 

Gold watches on nightstand.

Mirror on wall above bed.Opposite of the bed is our large dresser and TV.

Armchair and tv on top of black dresser.And then in the corner near our master bath is a little reading nook. I’m completely obsessed with that lamp from HomeGoods.

Black and gold lamp in corner above armchair.

Love you madly picture by the armchair.At the foot of the bed we put a charcoal gray bench.  It’s a great place to put shoes on in the morning, or basically a place to let clothes pile up during the week.

Grey charcoal bench at the foot of the bed.To the right of the bed is a little black console to store some extra blankets and sheets. To dress it up, we found a large gold mirror on clearance. I love how it reflects more light throughout the room during the day.

Gold gilded mirror above the dresser.

    This room looks amazing! It looks straight out of a magazine! I love that it looks beautiful yet you can’t help but want to snuggle up with a good book. Finding the balance between snuggly and gorgeous is difficult and you nailed it!

    Erin…………good work, it’s a really nice master space! The accent pieces all look great. Good skills on making neutrals work together! My daughter has that same grey paint color in her room———total fan of it in both your spaces! 🙂

    Gorgeous bedroom and beautifully decorated! I think I saw that bench at Tuesday morning and I wanted it soooo bad because it was so pretty, but my bedroom is already super dark so I’m keeping my eye out for one in a lighter shade! Visiting from Serenity Now.
    Have a great weekend!

    You did a wonderful job on your master bedroom! I love the colors you used and your black furniture works great. The ‘Love You Madly” is a sweet touch. Our master bedroom is about half the size of yours. :[ Figuring out storage (we have one tiny closet) and furniture arrangement is driving me nuts. Dreaming of having the space for a beautiful, comfy chair/sitting area some day. We’d have to blow out an exterior wall to expand and I don’t see that happening any time soon. I’m living vicariously through gorgeous rooms like yours until someday comes. Keep up the beautiful decorating!

        Hi again. I am working on my mater makeover, and your bedroom is so beautiful I keep coming back to look at the pictures.

        I could not find the canvas online, so I’ve called the nearest Hobby Lobby store to me… Hopefully they will have in stores.

        I love how you incorporated the neutrals grays, beige, and gold accent pieces. I also see that your window hardware is hung higher up. Can you share more details, please?

        What is the wall color?

        Thank you!
        Cindy.

        I like to hang my window treatments higher so more natural light pours in. I hate when a valance or curtain panels cover half of the window and makes it darker in the room. I always purchase longer curtains then (not the standard 84 inches). The paint color is Functional Gray. LOVE the color!
