After 12 years of marriage I'm ashamed to say that my "master bedroom" leaves a lot to be desired. It's bare, cold and doesn't feel like the retreat it should be. :-(
My goal for this year is to create that master retreat every couple should have. I'm going to start with a clean slate. New bedding, new curtains, new accessories and a lock on the door and a huge sign that reads "NO KIDS ALLOWED!" Totally not kidding.
My dilemma, picking a color palette. Where to begin? Do I go neutral? Do I go bold? Do I do crisp, clean, white? Or do I do bold patterns?
I have been doing my homework and building a mood board or idea board of what I want. The more I play with it, the more I like it. Both of these designs are beyond what my budget could afford, but it's an inspiration to build from.
I strongly recommend that before you begin to decorate any room that you create an inspiration board similar to this. You can use a website like Olioboard, Polyvore or Pinterest, or you can simply collect images from magazines you get. That's how I started. This will help you to visualize the room and avoid buying a whole bunch of stuff that doesn't work together.
I have two options. Tell me which is your favorite.
By the way, if you have a Pinterest account be sure to follow me.
