I’ve been talking about painting rooms in the house for a few weeks now. I got sidelined for a little bit with my back being hurt, but this past week I finished up all of the little touches in the master suite. And today, I’m showing you our transformed master bedroom! A new paint job, new bedding, new switch plates, and new gallery walls, and I’m already loving the ‘new’ room. I’d still like to get some curtains – something light and breezy, semi-transparent – but that will come later. I went with all neutral, because we had a mix of browns and blacks already with furniture and some of the picture frames. This paint color is called ‘Rustic Taupe’ and it’s pretty much the perfect shade of gray. And a lot of those pieces in the gallery walls are simply fabric-covered shoe box lids – such simple and cheap decor. Take a look!
And of course, a picture of Sienna for good measure, because whenever I take photos indoors she’s always poking her nose around. 🙂 What’s behind those double doors, you ask? That’d be our master bathroom, which also got a makeover – stay tuned next week for that reveal!
What do you think? Have you ever tackled a room makeover where the room is already full of stuff?

You hit it out of the park with that paint color! And I love the gallery wall by the door. High-five!
Thank you! I thought you’d like it with your penchant for neutrals. 🙂
It looks fantastic! I love the colour you chose!
Thank you!! 🙂
Love how your gallery wall turned out! And that last picture of your pup is great. What a cutie!
Thanks!! 😀
That’s such a cute dog! I also love that dreamcatcher you have above the bed. It’s a nice touch, although I know you have it in the before pictures too lol.
I did a apartment furniture renovation a week or so ago. You can find my post on it here; http://writingitinblue.blogspot.com/2014/02/apartment-renovation-new-furniture.html
Thank you! And yeah, I didn’t move the dreamcatcher. My aunt and I made it when I was in middle school, it’s been with me for years. I thought about putting something to each side of it up on the wall, but I ended up still liking the simplicity of it there by itself. 🙂
Looks GREAT! Love the color change! Great arrangement for your gallery walls!
Thank you! 😀
Great room makeover!! I like the soft, muted colors! Very calming! The spatter convas is so cool!

Thank you! I tend to like muted colors for home decor, too – or at least for bedrooms. Very calming, like you said. It might be all in my head, but I’ve slept really well in there since the makeover! 🙂
Oooh I love it! It’s crazy how a little bit of paint changes everything! You did such a great job choosing the color and I love all of the picture arrangements too!
Thank you! And yes, it’s amazing what a simple paint job can do. It looks so different to me. 🙂
Well done! It looks sensational!
Thanks!! 😀
