Romantic Master Bedroom

I have to tell you that I love my bedroom. It is the perfect size. Not too big & not too small. It is the room in my house that I spend a lot of time in. It is warm in the winter & cool in the summer. It is comfortable. My husband & I watch tv in there, I blog, design kitchens & fold laundry in there too. I know, I know, all the experts say your room shouldn't be for doing all those things, it should be your sanctuary. Despite all the activities that I do in my room, it is still my sanctuary.


When I decided on chocolate brown for the paint color, I was a little afraid that the dark color would make my master bedroom look smaller. After it was painted, I was pleasantly surprised that it actually made the room look larger.

I didn't have matching nightstands up until this year. One of those round wobbly tables that you cover with a table cloth and a small bookcase was previously on either side of the bed. I found the mirrored nightstands one day at TJ Maxx for a great price & I immediately put them on hold & had Mr. Fanatic pick them up on his way home from work. I finally got around to making drapery panels this past year. When you close them, it's very dark - I know some of you like to sleep in a very dark room. (I like to keep a light on in my bathroom) I still want to make an upholstered headboard, but it is pretty far down on my list.

I found the chair on Craigslist. It had been used in a model home & we purchased it for $100!  This is where I do most of my blogging and where I am sitting right now!









I love the way the mirrored nightstands look, but you have to dust them EVERY day!!! And, don't even think about putting a glass on there without a coaster!

I had to include my perfume bottle collection that is in my master closet.

Thanks for taking the tour of my master bedroom!
