Master Bedroom by Lani

I returned to living solo in May 2019 (see December 30, 2019 entry).

Start: November 2019

My former roommate occupied the master bedroom. It remained empty for 6 months. I began furnishing the room shortly after Thanksgiving. By President's Day Weekend in 2 weeks, it should be finished.

I'd spend hours on end obsessing with intricate, meticulous details on what I wanted for the room.

• Curtains (shower and windows) must have grommet tops. I hate curtain rings. Window curtains have to be blackout style. I want the option to sleep in weekends without sun in my face.
• NO innerspring mattress or mattress that requires a foundation frame.
• Bedding that is gender neutral with warm, subtle, muted colors that won't clash with the curtains already in the room. NO bed skirt, no more than two pillow shams. NO floral, paisley, plaid or checkered patterns.
• Light blocking shade for the skylight in the vanity between the bathroom and bedroom. This, by far, took the longest to find the right size. 

Here's the end result:

Finish: February 2020

Once I installed the shade for the skylight, I spent this past weekend sleeping in the room. It feels tranquil, spacious yet cozy.

Family will stay in the room at the start of the President's Day weekend.

There's still a few final furnishings I'd like to put in. I really like how it's all turned out. So much so that I'll eventually move into the room full time.
