I am sharing my master bedroom story and linking up today in honor of the Roomspiration blog hop & link party. </div></div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div></div></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><img alt="" border="0" height="799" id="Image-Maps_ 4201109101416093" src="http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/dd408/lizzygal18/bannerorangebackgroundoffcentered-1.jpg" usemap="#Image-Maps_4201109101416093" width="598" /> <map id="_Image-Maps_4201109101416093" name="Image-Maps_4201109101416093">   </map></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><map id="_Image-Maps_4201109101416093" name="Image-Maps_4201109101416093"><br /></map></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><map id="_Image-Maps_4201109101416093" name="Image-Maps_4201109101416093"></map></div><div style="text-align: center;"><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">When Mister Husband and I purchased our lovely abode, we had nothing. Literally. Nothing. We had a queen sized mattress on the floor, a dining table (but no chairs), a flat screen tv, one dresser, one small side table from Target, and an old box. This is absolutely not an exaggeration. My idea was that I didn't want a bunch of skank crap that I drug through college to live in my abode. Not then, not now, not ever. I knew that if I filled my home with crap, it would be tough to get rid of it!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">With all of that said... I wanted to share my master bedroom and how far it has come. It used to be the ONLY room with furniture- so we never left the bedroom. It was where we ate, fed the dogs, watched tv- you name it. <i>We didn't have a sofa people.. what else were we supposed to do!?</i></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">So- I am pathetic and don't have "before" photos of the abode... (that I can find). I do have some photos with people in them, as well as dogs.... so- here are my before photos... try to ignore Mister Hubbs, King and Lady!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">In this photo, King was a wee little pup, and Mister Hubbs was lounging in our BEAUTIFUL master bedroom. I mean, how romantic, right!? That is the queen sized mattress that sat right on the floor. The box in the corner is actually used as a side table in the <a href="http://abodelove.blogspot.com/2010/09/orange-you-glad-i-did-this-post.html">man mountain</a> <i>(check out the post!)</i>, but here, it doesn't work so well. The painting leaning against the window is one of my pieces I painted that I knew that I would use in our room, but didn't know where I would put it yet. The room is pale blue, which originally I was fine with- but then it started irritating me that I wasn't the one who CHOSE it for our master bedroom. It was left over from the previous owner, and I wanted everything to be new and different!</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjBKja-oE40rwYsebyAANU5o6qH-gqcYd5x0CHnzs6J8mlC-Am0CbTyU7Q0JRmtIZEssxbQbab5oXjVDto6epBnmQS1D_6K1zMXNLE82_6VFQb8yLYfgOCoTySnJDHsPG5JFGmhHb9aS1o/s1600/DSC00598.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjBKja-oE40rwYsebyAANU5o6qH-gqcYd5x0CHnzs6J8mlC-Am0CbTyU7Q0JRmtIZEssxbQbab5oXjVDto6epBnmQS1D_6K1zMXNLE82_6VFQb8yLYfgOCoTySnJDHsPG5JFGmhHb9aS1o/s640/DSC00598.JPG" style="cursor: move;" width="640" /></a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;">This is the beautiful other side.

The side table to the left was a great steal from Pier 1 for $40! The lamps are from PB and the shades are from Anthropologie. I really loved our room at this point- I felt it was well on it's way... but something didn't feel like <i>"us"</i>.... it was the lightness of the space... I love contrast- and I felt that the bed didn't <i>POP</i> the way I wanted....</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQbVqDqNonT6OjGRDH8-9l1T47PKqA7ynTraCRO0RstTyhZEiaYZCzBdJk5-_HEhI0dy1SHQWOgKEwKUSDdpsKR5oDdwqBwLUNiqOqo2xHtf43lWmII2iXrlpkVHg-OGElsJ-xs7hIpxw6/s1600/April-Aug+1st+day+school+401.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQbVqDqNonT6OjGRDH8-9l1T47PKqA7ynTraCRO0RstTyhZEiaYZCzBdJk5-_HEhI0dy1SHQWOgKEwKUSDdpsKR5oDdwqBwLUNiqOqo2xHtf43lWmII2iXrlpkVHg-OGElsJ-xs7hIpxw6/s640/April-Aug+1st+day+school+401.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">Which leads us to where the master is now... I decided to paint the room a warm shade of gray while Mister Hubbs was away one weekend. It was JUST what we needed in this space! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;">Here is the entrance to our lovely master bedroom.

It stands out much more- and the artwork also makes a much larger impact. I purchased the sapphire blue velvet drapes from World Market. They are 96" and they were only around $40 per panel! Great steal.

I LOVE them- they are made of feathers, velvet, small pearls and four leaf clover charms. They are so precious that I was thrilled to display them in our home. The wire frame is another favorite thing that I got from Urban Outfitters- love it! It's big and makes a statement, but its airy so it doesn't feel too heavy. Also, Mr.Hubbs and I have photos displayed of our parents on their wedding days- they were also displayed at our wedding. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYI9KH24yeTbUexFizUts9lk_ykfON1ddU-ETteOoe0wALqrKEdJMCGsvV2g1LxwZxKJQyMEXDKw5wmaNREmUd5qP2J2ZspVHPmaK_ryUWt4-QJ1XbCYup7Yr-JjROotYP5_BRVuGa6VmZ/s1600/abode+love+master+14.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="424" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYI9KH24yeTbUexFizUts9lk_ykfON1ddU-ETteOoe0wALqrKEdJMCGsvV2g1LxwZxKJQyMEXDKw5wmaNREmUd5qP2J2ZspVHPmaK_ryUWt4-QJ1XbCYup7Yr-JjROotYP5_BRVuGa6VmZ/s640/abode+love+master+14.jpg" style="cursor: move;" width="640" /></a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><br /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">I love matching different patterns of bedding- I think it's so fun to switch out pillow cases to change the entire look of a room.
