Things are moving along in my master bedroom! This week I was able to strip the second nightstand and paint one more wall.
Here’s the current situation:
I was pleasantly surprised at how well the wood tones match on the two dressers. I love how they are similar but one is a little more masculine than the other!
I bought a full set of brass pulls for this dresser, but I really like how the black knobs contrast the wood. So before I replace all of them, I’m going to try to match the missing one.
I also need to add a little height to the dresser to match the one on the left. I tried the ones in the photo above but they aren’t working. I’m thinking I might try small wheels…we’ll see what I can find!
Here are a few things I’m debating for this part of the room:
- What kind of lamps? The lamps in the photo are what I had originally and I’m thinking I need something a little darker.
- Do I keep the bench? I like having the bench at the end of the bed, so I’m trying to decide on whether or not I’ll keep it or switch it out with another one I already own.
- Artwork…I think I’m going to leave the wall above the bed empty and add smaller artwork above the nightstands. What are your thoughts?
Next week I need to finish painting the room and hang the curtains. I decided on a simple, white linen curtain. (One of the blinds are broken so they need to be replaced. I’m still on the hunt for those…fingers crossed I will have those picked out and ready to share next week. )
I also got a small desk for in-between the windows. The plan is to use it as a makeup table. (My husband said I won’t use it…I intend to prove him wrong! 😉)
That’s about all I have for now. Check back next for more progress!

I love your bedroom, but if I were to hang any picture[s], I would hang a big beautiful picture you love, over the head of the bed since the headboard is not tall. I would not hang it over the nightstands, because the beautiful lamps already give the needed height. I would also get two to three books and place on the nightstands, then put a small terra-cotta pot and put some green fake flowers in them. If I were to do anything with the nightstands, it would be to put a whitewash look, this would make them match beautifully with the gorgeous bench at the foot of the bed. yes, I would for sure leave the bench at the foot of the bed. I would add the arch-looking mirrors on top of the nightstands, placing them behind the lamps, leaning against the wall. I have a question, where did you get the fabulous bench at the foot of your bed? if you made it, do you have a step by step tutorial on how you made it?
I think a taller and skinnier lamp on each nightstand would look great. I like Ivory’s idea of putting a mirror on top of the nightstands and leaning them against the wall. And definitely keep the bench! I can’t wait to see the end result!

Hi. I’ve tried different casinos in Australia, but Primaplay Casino really impressed me with how comfortable it feels to play there. The interface and games seemed to match what I enjoy most. Still, I think everyone should test out a few clubs first and decide independently which one suits them best.
