Dream a little dream with me….

Hey hey sweeties!! Laurie here and today I am going to do a little dreaming with you. What am I dreaming about? What I want my bedroom to look like. Seems kinda silly, I know, but just wait….

When we moved into our house nearly 6 years ago, this is what the walls in our bedroom looked like (I can’t even believe I’m showing you this):

Ewww right? Guess what they look like right now? Drumroll please….

 

 

*hangs head in shame* Yes, they are exactly the same. I think I throw up a little in my mouth every night when I walk upstairs into our bedroom, lol. I honestly can’t tell you why we haven’t done anything about it. It’s upstairs, it’s our bedroom and we’re hardly in it, we’re lazy. The list really could go on!! So our goal this year is to paint this room. So this is where the dreaming needs to become a reality because I don’t know how much longer I can live with these walls!! I’ve talked with my hubby and we both love the idea of having a grey bedroom. Check out this inspiration!!

I have been set on grey walls, but I love the idea of crisp white walls with grey bedding and accents!!

There are just too many things I love about this next room. My most favorite thing though? Those gorgeous white pillows in front!! *sigh* Love that quilt too!!

And how about this lovely array of grey bedrooms? Is it grey or gray? I always think it’s grey, but this picture says gray…

I looooove the bedding in this next picture. Oh goodness I’m in love!!

It seems you see a lot of grey and yellow. I love this blue with the grey…maybe too much as far as cool colors go?

Right now it doesn’t matter if it’s too much cool. As long as it’s not pukey purple with really horrible aqua and white sponge painting over it, it’s cool 🙂 Anyone have more inspiration for me?  I can’t WAIT to get started (FINALLY) and to show you our finished product!!

  • I had so much energy when I was younger for tasks like yours! I think how dark you go depends on the size of the room. If you’re going to go with white trim, just go to your paint store and pick up some paint chips in off whites. You only need a color that will contrast with your trim.
    Then remember to get your bedding first! You can match a paint color to your bedding but good luck with matching a quilt to the wall color! I speak from experience!

    Have fun!

  • Oh, my, I LOVE this!!! I think the yellow and gray look fantastic, or the gray and white – I may be looking this back up when we redo our room! So pretty.

  • Those pics look awesome! I’m about do redo my powder bath in gray/grey and yellow – can’t wait! Good luck!

  • Love this! We are in the process of updating our living room, and I had planned to do a dark gray/blue, but a friend suggested a light gray to me, so that’s what I went with. I haven’t actually put any paint on the walls yet, but I’m loving the possibilities that I see here in your pics (even though they’re bedrooms lol). Thanks for sharing!

  • Hi! I was wondering where I can find that yellow and gray comforter?! Thanks!

  • Where can I find the gray comforter with the ruffles on it? I’ve been looking for something like this….thanks!
