My Master Bedroom Reveal! Finally!
The truth is I'm just not an interior designer so making the rooms pretty for pictures really stresses me out. I don't feel like I am any good at dressing rooms up at all but I guess this is how I learn! The other big thing that's stopped me from really posting the reveals is that the rooms really aren't "DONE" yet. But, like every blogger would tell me, they will never be done lol. So, without further delay let's take a trip down memory lane and see how far I've come!
Just check out that linoleum! If you look close you can see that there is an incredible amount of dead bugs on the floor, yes this was the longest abandoned and creepiest part of the whole house. It started where my grandparents were in this room and my aunt and mom were in the other room but as they grew up my grandparents moved downstairs and this became my aunt's bedroom. So, when she moved out, it pretty much never had anyone in it again and that was forty years ago!
This is my favorite place in the house, it feels like an escape, like a tree house, like my own private place and hideaway. Sometimes, I'll come up and sprawl out in the middle of the bed after work and just breathe the day away.
When I began my big renovation this is where I started gutting and I will never forget shoveling the ancient, filthy, absolutely horrible insulation, plaster and lath down the staircase! I was NEVER dirtier than I was that day! Hard to believe that under all of that were gorgeous hard wood floors!
I absolutely love my little retreat!

Love the bead board solution for the sloped walls. It lends an old world elegance to the space. With the dark "sooty" colored accent wall, you struck pay dirt! Great job peeps!
