Congrats, Shee, you've worked hard and stayed true to your vision! Enjoy!

I love your wall color! Your room is beautiful and inviting. Congratulations!

This looks so much better than before (I remember your early posts about it), and I agree with the others that you've stayed focused and really produced a warm inviting room! I usually prefer wood beds, but your iron one is really pretty and fits well with your furnishings. Give yourself a mini break from decorating.

Shee - I think that you've done a remarkable job - your room is lovely, very pulled-together. Any more that you do will just be fine-tuning details. And you'll be able to change the accessories as the mood hits, sometimes a bit of this, sometimes a bit of that. I like the vignette on the dresser, the items are in keeping with its style. Especially like that oval picture and the books.

Regarding the Bosporus Toile. I know how you love it; it's my favorite fabric also. I have samples of all three colors but haven't decided where to use them. Thought they'd be our master bedroom curtains, but the look is too dark and heavy. Since you want to repeat the fabric, what if you used it for the tablecloth? Or as a runner on the low bureau? Agree that you should keep the pillow - it lightens up the room, which IMO benefits from a touch of feminine and floral.

It looks wonderful, switching out to the larger plaid was such a great move !!

I'm sooooo happy for you, it's very warm, rich and wonderful! ENJOY!

These bed rooms are really very nice and very neat.

It looks great! Thanks for the f/u photos, I've been wondering about you and this room.

So beautiful! Very warm and inviting- you should be very proud! As far as styling the dressers, here are some thoughts...Obviously you can take'em or leave 'em! :)Your room has a very traditional feel, so maybe an antique wood frsmed oval mirror over the chest in place of the picture on the plate stand. 16 x 20 or 18 x 24 would look nice. And over the double fresser, it might be gorgeous to do a set of 9 or 12 identically framed similarly themed pics hung very close together. Check out calendars for 12-15 similar pics and get inexpensive frames anywhere.Again, you have done an awesome job!

Looks great! I'm glad you decided to use the larger plaid. It really made a big difference.

Shee, that looks wonderful!!!!!!
and looking at the room, I am really loving the wall color and it all works beautifully. I too have used my share of beige/tans for wall color and this just brings it all home as to why they are so popular-- looks warm and works great with what you have.
It all looks so good that I didn't even notice the nightstand lamps (which I agree are not right but who even noticed?).And I like the lamp on the long dresser.
Great job love it all.

Looks wonderful. everything came together nicely. I really like the arrangement on the tall dresser. Congratulations.

your bedroom looks very nice!

i have dromedary camels in some hallways in our house...painted it with flat about 8 years ago---walls really need to be done again, so recently picked up more dromedary camel in eggshell! hoping tht will be a better finish for stairwells/hallways! it is really a great neutral!

Shee,
I love the room. It came together beautifully. Your colors are stunning and all flow so well. The only thing I do not like is the vignette on tall dresser. I would prefer to see alot less there. Perhaps one framed family photo and your hubbys box or pretty bowl or basket to put his change and junk at night.

I got slowed down in my progress on my house as well - I kind of burned myself out on it last year by doing so much because I just moved in last year. Now I'm having a hard time being motivated to finish the trim and do the laundry room. I have been taking a loooong break from it. Congrats in getting it all done even after the plaid fiasco - it really makes a huge difference though - Your bed is just gorgeous and the colors of the room look so inviting.

It's beautiful! As others have said, it's so warm and inviting, very pulled together. I do like the vignette on top of the chest. And I like the print above the bed, too.

Shee, you did a wonderful job! Beautiful color on the wall too.

I vote for a runner in front of the bed. We have them in two bedrooms and it's the perfect finishing touch. The rug you have posted is the perfect color.

You have just the right amount of pillows, too many would be overkill.

Perfection!

Lookin' good! Lookin' good!

What a wonderful room!

Thanks everyone! Here are a couple day pics. The wall color looks closer to these. I can't seem to get an accurate picture of the room at night.

Sable - I can kind of sew but I'm not sure if I could match up the pattern right to make a tablecloth. Maybe as a topper on the table and a darker solid tablecloth? I don't know about using a scarf just because as much as I try to keep the long dresser clear of stuff it usually ends up with some clothes and odds and ends. We'll see if we can keep that from happening since the room is "done". :)

Debbie - I like the idea of an old oval mirror (or even a round) over the tall dresser. As much as I love that small oval picture (I also have another slightly different one -it's a set of two) my eye kept looking at it like it was too small to be the backdrop.

Lyban - I may end up simplifying the vignette. I've already changed it a few times to get it to this point. I like layered stuff in books but IRL it can be too much for me after a while.

Oakley - I'll measure in front of the bed. I'm thinking there might not be enough breathing room around the rug to look right. I really do like the rug in the mock up. I believe Squirrel found it on Overstock.

What a beautiful room! I love the colors, and the bed is gorgeous!

Bumping for Tina and a few others have asked occasionally over the past few months.

I knew you must be busy as I haven't seen you post in quite a while and here you unveil your vision! You must be thrilled with it because it IS exactly what you had in you mind's eye and you followed through to make it happen. And it DOES take time. The wall color is perfect and brings eveything togther! Just a question, not a suggestion, but have you tried the bedside lamps on the long dresser? Just wondering if they work there. I like the print over the bed! Perfect in the room. As far as the vignette, remove two items and see how it looks. Right now it seems a bit crowded, so maybe just removing something will help without redoing the whole thing. Overall you did a great job!

Hey Kmcg! Thanks! I was hoping you'd see this. Now where's Val?
I haven't tried the small lamps on the long dresser just because I thought they'd look too short. Where on earth do you put lamps that small? I have another set that's similar (shades black metal but there's a gold design/trim around the bottom) but even a little smaller!

I'll mess with the vignette more. I'd like to hang that round print with the other as a pair in the room somewhere so I'm sure I'll have something completely different when I'm finished.

I started the bathroom painting but I'm so not into it. Blaaaah. The trim isn't even finished yet. Since the room isn't functional I'm sure that will help me hurry things along.

love love love it! Who would notice or care about the lamps. that bed is picture perfect. In fact I much prefer your completed vision to the catalog photo!
And I like the vignette on the tall dresser,but I would remove the white plate and then I think its perfect. I have no doubt that you will come up with something for the low dresser!

AHHHH...I had been wondering about your progress. Hadn't seen any posts lately..WOW...your room looks amazing. I love how it came out.

What a great mix of masculine and feminine - perfect for a master bedroom! I'm so glad that you ditched the mirror over the bed idea. I would have been nervous for you sleeping with such a potential lethal weapon over your head at night. I actually like your little lamps on the bedside tables, and the round table with the cloth on it is just right. Very well done!

Cooper - Thanks! I still love the original inspiration photo but like that mine is somewhat different. Lighting in the inspiration picture makes a huge difference in the overall colors/look. I actually wonder if I'd like it as much if I saw it IRL. I can't find the inspiration pic right now or I'd post it again for giggles.

Always - Thank you! I get so excited to show you guys the after pictures.

Terriks - Thanks! "I'm so glad that you ditched the mirror over the bed idea."
I remember you and a few others saying about that not being a good location and I just figured I'd use super wall anchors and all would be well. Since I was using what I had, when the time came to actually hang that picture I changed my tune. It's probably less than 5 lbs and I have it hooked up like it's 50! :)

Do you guys remember that skinny, old mirror I bought off ebay and had in my LR for a while? I think that could work above the tall dresser. I'll have to start a new thread.

Oh Shee - so sorry I just now saw this! Not here so much lately.

It looks great! I think you could do one more pillow - I like an odd number.

I'd love to see the mirror - I can't remember it - but I think a mirror would definitely look good in your room. Of course, I love mirrors!!

I owe you an email - catch up!!

Sorry I'm late - but love the room!

tina

Beautiful! Your vision came together perfectly.

Thanks for the finished pictures. I was also wondering.

Did you decide to go with red for the bathroom? Or...?

I love the end result. I know you much you sweated over every little detail, but it looks but comfortable and stylish and something you will no doubt enjoy for many years to come.

I don't think you need another pillow--as it would detract from the carefully combined fabrics you already have. The Bosphorous toile is that something unexpected and really works.

Jill - I have my can of red ready to go! I'll keep the color top secret for now, ha. I had decided on the color a while back and my sister ended up using the same color in her downstairs bathroom and I LOVE it.

Oh, goodie! Looking forward to that post with pictures...
