Master Bedroom Changes

I think I finally have my bedroom the way I want it. When I moved the bird bedding up to the guest bedroom I brought back out the bedding I had on the bed before. This bedding is called Wells Palampore by Pottery Barn and I think it goes best with the colors and other fabrics in the room.



You will also notice a few other changes made.


Do you recognized this chest? This is the one that was in the foyer.
Now you can see the repainted lamps, too.


I love it in the bedroom. I just switched the two chests and moved the sideboard that was here
to the foyer where it was originally before I bought this chest.


Bought this little figurine recently at a home decor store. It is a white aged stone. 


Here are a couple of close ups


I painted the legs to the Ballard's bench white. I may distress and glaze them.


Brought this pillow in here from the bench in the great room.


Made some changes in this corner. Brought in the floor lamp from the sun room which meant I switched lamps in there, too. Moved these two pictures from the other side of the room.
I love how cozy this corner is now to sit and look at my magazines and books.


Brought this picture from the dining room where the large round mirror replaced it.
Everything just moves all over the house.


Mr. Savvy's armoire is the same, but it may get painted some day.


My dresser. I took the red lamp and moved it to the great room and brought this one in here.





The pattern on this lamp is very similar to the duvet.

Replaced the row of pictures I had here with this framed watercolor from Paris that was
given to us by a friend.


Got a close up of the duvet fabric and chair fabric to show how they work together.


I also decided to distress this mirror.


Mr. Savvy asked if I am through changing things around. Are you kidding?!
Just like I said when I started this blog five months ago I am constantly changing things up.

to do that.

I hope everyone has a great week.

Y'all come back now,

I really love the changes you made! You are making me want to lighten things up too. I like that your room is somewhat neutral, but there is color too. GORGEOUS!!!

Debby said...

Your room is really beautiful.

Cathy~Mille Fleur said...

Just gorgeous Kim! I love the entry chest in here...beautiful! I hop we'll get the tour of the changes in the other rooms;)! For what it's worth...I like this bedding better in here too...I love the way is blends with the other fabrics and the colors are so soothing and restful!

I am so terrible about moving things around! I seems to take forever to get it the way I like it then I leave it that way forever...something big has to happen to get me to change.

Your room is beautiful...I love it!

Enjoy!
Cathy

ChRiS said...

Kim your room looks great was great the other way also.....have you considered painting your dresser instead of Mr Savy's?

Charlotte's Color Specialist said...

It looks like a room out of a magazine. Gorgeous!

Karen said...

Kim, I think I bought the same duvet cover from Pottery barn in a with a sandy beige background but same floral print, or very similar, also... the quilt underneath is very similar to what I have bought for our new bedroom. AND.. my sidelamps coming from the old house, are white! I think the look will be similar. I am looking for accent pillows for the bed, have a hard time finding the right colors...

Pam @ diy Design Fanatic said...

Your Master Bedroom is gorgeous!! It just keeps getting better and better :)

Martina said...

Hey Kim,

LOVE the changes you made in your bedroom.I always liked that bedding in fact I like it so much I just might copy it for my bedroom when I change things up in the fall.Love how the hall chest looks in their too and the white accents you added to the top especially the white crackled vase!!

~Lavender Dreamer~ said...

I love the warm colors...looks so relaxing! I am always wondering what to put above my bed because I have a curved headboard, too. You've found something perfect! ♥ Love that pillow on the bench, too!♥

Ginger said...

Your room looks fantastic! I love that mirror!

Beautiful! I would love to curl up in that comfy chair right now. I wish you were "for hire" ha. My master bedroom needs some work right now.

Liz said...

Fabulous, Kim! You are one phenomenal decorator. =) ~Liz

What a great huge room, that you can fit the chest in there. I love the extra little sitting area too.

Hi Kimmie! Oh, what a gorgeous bedroom you have! Love your chest in here and your other changes! Your duvet is so pretty!! I'm looking for something similar with the blue and some brown in it. Yes, your little corner area with the pretty chair and lamp looks wonderful.
You did good!

Shelia ;)

Low Tide High Style said...

Wow Kim you've been a very busy girl! And all of your changes look wonderful as always! I love the duvet print with your chair fabric, they really compliment one another nicely! And Mr. Savvy should know better than to ask if you're done changing things around...how long have you two been married?! ;-)

Kat :)

Jemsmom said...

I love that duvet. Your colors are so calm and serene. The new touches of white just make is so clean looking. You have truly created a beautiful retreat.

Pondside said...

You're an inspiration! I have yet to get working on the guest room but I did find the twin, white matelasse coverlets and shams like in one of the photos you uploaded a few weeks ago.

xinex said...

Oh Kim, it does not matter what kind of change you do to your bedroom, it always looks very nice. I love all of your changes and if you put it back to what it used to be, I would love it also....Christine

Bonnie@Creative Decorating said...

Looks great Kim! Nice how things can be changed around to create a new look and feeling!

Julie said...

wow, you are Just like me. I will move things around all year round as another treasure comes into the house, and I see ways to shake things up and have them land in different places and I like what I see. It looks great. I had to smile as I read how all the rooms had things shuffled in and out, It's kind of like shopping the house and having a whole new look for free.. enjoyed my visit!

cynthialeedesigns said...

Love all the changes that you made to your room. Everything looks great!! I just love how changing things around in the house makes everything feel new again.
Have a great week.
~Cindy~

Linda said...

Beautiful room, Kim! I really am amazed by the wonderful changes you make in a room! I need to do more of this in my home! Thanks for the inspiration!

Heidi said...

Hi Kim,
I love what you've done in your room. It really looks terrific, like a master suite in a nice hotel! I love that you can move things from room to room, and they all work together. I believe it's because you only have things that you truly love in your home. I try to do that to, because then eventually everything just seems to "fit" - like pieces of a really nice puzzle!
Have a great week.
You always have the longest list of comments. Everyone loves you!!

You have done a great job, looks so neat and clean! So many nice details, such as the pretty pillows, lamps, etc. I really like the cute picture of the three girls riding bikes!

I could just move in! :-)

Kim said...

So pretty! It's hard to pick a favorite change, but I do love that sideboard used as a nightstand, the lines are so pretty.

Noni at The Brick Street Bungalow said...

Your master looks fabulous!! I love, love, love the photo of your grandbaby (partial to the grandbabies... can't help it!) and that little praying figurine. Oh, my goodness, it is so sweet!

I hope your babies come to visit soon so we can see them in the Savvy Southern Style! =)

Melanie said...

I love the bedding and the paris print. Both are lovely.

Yanet @ 3 Sun Kissed Boys said...

The bedroom looks pretty and calming. Where did you get the mirror above the bed? It's super cute!

Lori E said...

So tranquil and peaceful. I would never come out if that were my room. They would have to bring my meals to the door.

Rettabug said...

I have never known ANYONE to move things around as much as you do, Kim!! LOL Your poor hubby...its a good thing he is young & strong. :-)

The changes you've made have really added some punch. I ♥ the new bedding. I am soooo ready to re-do our MB but can't decide on anything. I have trouble making up my mind. Of course, I LIVE WITH IT FOR YEARS...unlike you, who will switch it in a couple of months. LOL
I hope you know I'm just teasing & it is pure envy that makes me do it.

Hugs,
Rett

As always, very well done. I particularly like the bench at the foot of the bed and the art hanging in the corner by your dresser.

Kathy @ Creative Home Expressions said...

This looks great, Kim! I love that duvet fabric! I am really impressed that you did such a major change up by shopping your own house. Good for you!
