Mini Master Bedroom Makeover

Happy  Monday everyone! We had a wonderful weekend. Breakfast downtown, date night, movies, and chocolate fondue…..doesn’t get much better than that! I’ve also been busy working on a mini makeover for our master bedroom….and although it isn’t done yet, I thought I’d share a sneak peak!
Photobucket
We got new curtains (which are actually two shower curtains from Target!), a new duvet cover, and new pillows. It’s so much cuter now.

Here’s a reminder of what it looked like before:
Photobucket
The brown tones clashed with our newly updated bathroom (you can see that HERE) so they had to go!

LOVE our new look. The pillows are from Etsy. Recognize that yellow pillow? I stole it from our guest room. It will be replaced once I find something else to go there, but for now, it works!

Photobucket
Here is where the yellow pillow normally lives. I “shopped” my house to find pillow for the photos…..which is one of my favorite tips to decorating on a budget! Want some more budget friendly decorating ideas? Head on over to All in My Twenties to read my guest post today! I’d love to hear what you think!

    Love the update! I'm a huge fan of using things that are not technically curtains as curtains. My lastest two have been from bed sheets because they come in the cutest prints.

    Nice color combination. The 2nd pic is my favorite. The combination of greens are perfect. It gives a cooling effect, really relaxing. Visit our website
