Beautiful Double Wedding Ring Quilt, but master bedroom needs a makeover. www.spindlesdesigns.com #masterbedroommakeover #paintmasterbedroom

As much as I love my Double Wedding Ring quilt my grandma quilted for my wedding, I was ready for a change. Aren’t my curtains terrible. I never got around to making new ones when we moved in 4 years ago. I made these for our first apartment.

They have served there purpose now they need a good burial. I can’t wait to retire them. Just after my third baby was born we touched up all the paint in my bedroom and hallway. I thought that would be enough to get me happy with my room,

but the decorating bug hit and inspiration struck.

I was tired on my room being the storage room.

So, while my husband was out of town mom and I painted. He did know I was going to paint, no going behind his back – this time.
He even helped me pick the color. I think he was really afraid I was going to pick pink when I told him I wanted to paint. Did he really think I would do that to him?

I decided to go shabby chic. I’m trying to use things I already have and add a few new things as I find them. Then of course I need to stick to the budget! I haven’t really set one but I

promised my husband I wouldn’t go too crazy.

I love how it turned out! New bedding makes a big difference too.

I have a lot of fun re-doing things in my house. Unfortunately I haven’t always remembered to take

a before picture.

This great cabinet was a garage sale find. The gentleman selling it had a custom cabinet business out of his home and was retiring. This was made from leftovers in his garage. I fell in love with it on site and thought it would be perfect to replace the build in folding table that was never free from stuff to fold laundry on. There was only one problem, it was about 2″ too wide. What a great excuse to re-do the room. My husband moved the dryer vent and electrical. We painted it with Behr paint, Paprika, and thank goodness Home Depot is practically in our back yard because out of the blue we decided to tile the floor. The Linoleum had peeled up in several places and looked really bad. Now I have this great mud room/Laundry room that I just love.
It is a great sense of accomplishment when you finish, it all works and looks good too.
