See how our dark and heavy master bedroom got a bright, fresh makeover on a budget, turning it into our peaceful retreat!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Shortly after my husband and I purchased our house we gave the master bedroom a makeover. It was the very first room we did. Yes, you read that right – the before photos in this post were our first master bedroom makeover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are all photos I snapped at the last minute before we started taking stuff out of our room – the bed is unmade, furniture is dusty, piled with stuff…but these are all I could readily find.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

You see, we were both completely new at this home owning and renovating thing and had no clue what we were doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were going to be married in 3 months, we were both working full time, and we were still in wedding planning mode. My husband had already moved in and I would move in after our wedding. We wanted to have the master bedroom finished before the wedding, so we rushed the project and settled on a lot of things we shouldn’t have.<\/p>\n\n\n

The day we closed on our house. So much has changed since then – both with our house and our family!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

We brought whatever furniture we already had into the marriage, including my large dark cherry dresser with a trifold mirror. I got that dresser from my parents for Christmas when I was 12 and always loved it, but it just didn’t work in this space as it was.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I know people’s taste in decor changes over time, but I’m really not sure what I was thinking with the curtains. Hmm.<\/p>\n\n\n
