Show Us Your Life-Master Bedroom

I decided to 'try' and participate in Kelly's Korner, Show Us Your Life series.  After all I love to see others' ideas.Welcome to our master bedroom.

Our bedroom is a mix of a lot of freebies!  Our headboard was grabbed off of my grandparents ranch in a scrap metal pile.  I just love it-even the rust holes.

Here is the entrance from the hall & bathroom.

This chest was once used in my brother-in-law's college apartment.  I have painted it at least 4 times and changed the hardware out.

The chair was given to me when my grandparents bought new furniture.  I didn't think the hunter green fabric gave me the look I was going for so I painted it with latex wall paint that was a merchant freebie.  It took two coats and I love it!  The legs are dark wood like the floor-I would like to paint them a gray-someday.  The wicker chest was a freebie when my sister-in-law cleaned out her closet.  A couple of cans of spray paint later Cody now has a nightstand.

Horns are one of my new favorite accessories.  The lamps are Dollar General purchases many years ago.  I painted them silver, but would love to have them dipped in chrome.  The shades are Target clearance and they both of a prism hung on the light switch.

Before my bedroom became white I had the Ralph Lauren leopard and floral print bed, curtains, .....  I love the little splash of wild!

This little table was my grandmothers and then Momma used it for awhile and now I have it.  The silver tray was Cody's grandmother's.

This armoire has a story: I drooled over this piece at Hobby Lobby for over a year.  I finally decided to bite the bullet and brought my 40% off coupon to purchase it, since within the year it never went more than 30% off.  When I arrived this was the only one on the floor and it had a few scratches.  The wonderful manager gave it to me 30% off plus let me use my coupon.  Then he couldn't get the new cash register to total it like he wanted so I ended up getting it for $200+ when it was $1000!  I don't know how I controlled myself!!!!!  It is huge and I love it!

I love my hand carved deer head which of course I found on clearance.  I found a huge steal on it as well.  Below it is the matching ottoman to the chair I painted.

A view from my side of the bed.

My ceiling is hot pink with a gold rubbed into the texture.  I scraped all of the popcorn off and retextured.  The walls are a light gray and the trim is spanish white-just like the rest of the house inside and out.  I still have to paint my closet doors and put up crown molding.  Hopefully I will complete those things real soon!

Now I am off to check out everyone else's' rooms!

Master Bedroom Christmas Decorations

Last year I decided to do something different with the tree in our master bedroom.  However, the stand needed to be made sturdier for this year; it fell over last year!  I cemented the base of the tree onto this pedistal.I then only added every-other row of branches and flattened them instead of fluffing them.  I love the topiary look it creates.  Lyndon thinks it is ugly but I love it!I then wrapped the stem with some leopard fabric (old sheets).  The topper is a disco ball.We put our gifts to each other under this tree.& my favorite ornaments...All of these ornaments came from clearance racks and most of them even came from Big Lots several years ago.I enjoy the unique look of our bedroom.  It is fun!
