Hello! I hope you have had a great week and a good start to your weekend! We had the stomach flu this week…sure makes me appreciate good health all the much more!
As I mentioned in my home goals for the New Year post I want to finish updating my master bedroom this year so I’ve been busy lately looking through inspiration photos and for fairly priced bedroom decor.
As I’ve been studying some of my favorite master bedrooms on Pinterest I’ve noticed some things they have in common.
10 Steps to a Beautiful Bedroom (at least for me)

After the kids go to bed we often work on our laptops sitting up in bed and because the nightstands are too low the light from the bedside lamps hit too low too!
Over the past 3 or 4 weeks I’ve been on the hunt for new nightstands for our room and can I just say nightstands are ridiculously expensive!
I finally found a pair at Homegoods for $79 each that I think will work (but I may change the pulls on it).

10. Plant life. If you scroll up you will see that in every single photo there is a plant or flower on a nightstand. Crazy, right? I didn’t realize this until I was writing this!
I tell you there is something about bringing some of the outdoors in (even if it is fake) that just makes a space more inviting and fresh. I will be sure to add a small, probably faux plant or flower to my new nightstand.
So what am I missing? What elements or items bring beauty to your master bedroom? Feel free to share in the comments!
When I finish with all of the updates I will for sure share a before and after post!
Hope you have a great rest of your weekend and as always thanks for reading!
Great post Tamara. We are updating our master as well and going through the same process. We are in the market for new nightstands as well and I agree that even the ho-hum ones are super expensive!! Out of curiosity, what brand of mattress did you go with? We are getting a new one an there are sooo many options out there. It is like choosing paint!
HI Jennifer! Here is the link to the mattress we bought…https://www.overstock.com/Home-Garden/Slumber-Solutions-Choose-Your-Comfort-12-inch-Queen-size-Gel-Memory-Foam-Mattress/8599948/product.html?recset=91f17035-54a4-408d-9aef-41da523da9ef&refccid=6FRM4H2ZM4OLVCSE3IYKYCQ2PE&searchidx=2&recalg=63&recidx=2. It has a lot of reviews (it was helpful to read through them all). We ended up going with the soft option and are happy with it. It took about 2 weeks to get use to the new mattress but love it now. I wish you luck on finding affordable nightstands…for such a relatively small furniture piece it seems like highway robbery. Maybe check IKEA. Have a great week!!
I would love to sleep at that bed! I am so amazed with the classy designs.
