Time For A Makeover

For our neglected master bedroom.
Maybe this post would have more aptly been titled "somebody call 911".

Because that is what I did. 
Well, not 911, but my girl, Holly.

This room and adjoining sitting room/office
(which I'm not going to show you b/c it is a MESS)
have been virtually untouched since we moved in FOUR years ago.

Here's what we are starting with...

I'd like to keep the green and cream check headboard and bed skirt.

I'm open to all sorts of paint - paint walls & ceiling, paint furniture, paint trim.

I'd even consider wallpaper because I think it would be so cozy in this room.

I can't figure the window treatments out.

I adore these casement windows,

but with the sloped ceiling I don't know if
I should do long drapes or a flat roman shade?

I have a few pretty accessories I'd like to keep, like this lamp.

 I'm adding some new art (yes, those won from the recent auction)

Starting with these 5 gorgeous antique bird prints.

They are already in linen mats in a fabulous color,

I'm just going to add very simple, thin gold frames.

a close up...

And these two oil paintings.  

I could not get a picture that did them any justice.

The ornate frames are being replaced.

Tomorrow.

A little inspiration...

I want to keep the colors green & cream.

I love that color combination, especially in a bedroom.

I want the room to feel cozy & classic.

I'll keep you posted on the process. 

I'm sure many ideas will change once Holly starts to work her magic.
