Just Some Dreamin'

I should probably have admitted yesterday that the eternal significance of my blog this week is likely to be lacking. I'm in the throes of the reception details and it's far more consuming than the wedding ever was. So until that's over, I'm not sure how deep my thoughts will be. HENCE yesterday's post on Easter dresses...and today's post on the perfect master bedroom.

Y'all know I'm a Pinterest addict and what happens when a Pinterest addict has the hope of a someday new home? Non.Stop.Dreaming.

So today I'm letting you crawl inside my head for a minute to see what our dream master would look like(ish). And no...these are not all my own ideas. We've talked about this and this is our together dream.

Our bedroom right now is 3 shades of purple, and Ryan's willingness to sleep in there every night is sheer proof of the power of love. I love our room but I'm eager for our new home together so our master can be OURS - starting with the color. We've decided on sort of a beachy/cottagey theme, so here's my color palette:

Not purple!! I love the blues...and the brightness. {Shades may not be the final ones - but you get the idea.} I think with a neutral carpet or a hardwood - it would make me feel very much like I'm just steps from the water. {Unfortunately said water will just be in a bathtub! HA!}

Ryan has an amazing bed frame that is white with sort of a wide beadboard look - PERFECT for a cottage bedroom. And we've picked out some bedding that we LOVE...

And I don't think it's all bad to have a big ole sink-your-toes-into-it white fuzzy rug...just sayin'.

We want to use a lot of our wedding memorabilia in here, and add to it with other beaches we visit. :)

Here are some of my ideas:

I don't like the frame...I would want a different style, but I LOVE the idea of using our AND sign...with either our actual names or with the words You/Me. So adorable. And I do love it inside the chunky frame.

Not sure where we'll end up or if this would look good in the real life space, but I do love the beadboard look on the wall - just to mix up the textures.

I love this beachy look...and I'm recently addicted to the idea of cloche jars...so I'm thinking rope in one of those.....

And depending on what our room looks like in layout...I also really like this idea of curtains on either side of the bed even if windows aren't present there. We also like the idea of a bench at the end of the bed. If we did that now, we would officially have no walking room and would have to crawl OVER the bed to get to the other side.

So those are my dreams for someday. Thanks for eavesdropping in my Pinteresty mind.
