The BEFORE is so bad…I apologize you guys, its bad! This is why I haven’t shared it, but…now you know why! Because it just needs help and guess what??? The next 6 weeks, It’s going to get help! I’m sharing our bedroom makeover for the Fall 2019 One Room Challenge. I’m still figuring out the plans for it, but I have the furniture picked and I can’t wait! Did I mention we have no dresser? Our chests on the sides of our bed are doing nothing for us, so I’m happy to have a large chest now and to create a cohesive space. If you missed my post the other day on creating a cohesive space click here! This will be the second room in our new house that we are making over for the ORC, you can see the last one here.
So, before we jump into this makeover let’s take a good look at the BEFORE. When we moved in, we moved all of our furniture in from our last house and made do the last 11 months.
It’s been totally fine but now that we are entering sweater weather again I know how stuffed these drawers can become. Not to mention the vintage drawers stick and it’s been a hassle. I’ve been back and forth about the design, whether I want to light and airy, moody, or somewhere in between.
I finally think I’ve decided on the somewhere in between. Having dramatic moody touches, but also keeping the bedding, curtains, and wall color bright and clean.
I can’t wait to dive in this week and start updating, DIYing, and of course shopping for this room to become a true Master oasis. If you have been following along then you’ll know I already start one project this week, because I just could not wait!
Be sure to follow along on Instagram too as I’ll be sharing a lot of behind the scenes with you all.
This Makeover would not be possible without these amazing brands that help make it possible!

Can’t wait to see it come to life girl! That bed is AMAZING!!!!
ahh thanks Lindsey1 xoxo
The room itself is a really great space. I especially like the French doors and the fireplace mantel. I can’t wait to see how it all comes together.
Our master bedroom is in desperate need of a makeover. Can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Thank you so much Jo! It definitely is one of the last on the list to update.
Excited to follow along! It will be gorgeous!
What sheen do you use on your baseboards and trim. Also what sheen do you prefer for walls.
Hi Phyllis! Great questions! I use flat paint on our walls and satin on our trim and doors.
Thank you for responding. I really appreciate it. We always paint our trim and doors with a Sherwin Williams high gloss and it’s very difficult to paint with high gloss paint. It looks awesome when it’s done especially on six inch baseboards but boy it takes a lot of work to make it look good. I’am thinking maybe changing over to your sheen next time I have to redo a room. The high gloss does turn a little yellow after several years and you have to redo it. Plus we have 8 grandchildren now. Best wishes on your bedroom. Love your beautiful home.
