House Tour – The Master Bedroom

 

Happy Friday everyone! Although I don’t have as many activities planned for the weekend, I am still looking forward to a little down time. 

I don’t know if it’s because I’ve gotten married or that now I have been organizing all of our wedding presents in the house but seriously, I have a BAD case of nesting!

Lately, I’ve been dreaming about putting in and decorating a spare bedroom, finishing the laundry room, and re-doing the sunroom! I have a serious itch and I want to get my little nest all homey and finished.

I told Ryan this the other day and he told me to get over it. But I’m having such a hard time! I’m dying to decorate or renovate something!

So, to prove to my husband that I’m giving it the ol’ college try of “getting over it”, I thought I would share with you a complete house project of the past, the master bedroom.

The master bedroom is most definitely the biggest room in the house. When my parents put the addition on the house they most definitely made sure to make themselves a nice big room! For that, I am sooo thankful!

The walk in closet was the first thing that I wanted to complete as a new home owner. The second thing, the master bedroom!

I have some fond memories of being a kid and running and playing in my parents nice big room! Thank you Mom and Dad for having such a big master bedroom but I curse you for the bird basket wall paper!

Yes, bird basket wallpaper! How is that EVER in style!?!?!

It took over 2 days just to remove the wallpaper. Any one who knows my grandpa Hamilton and now my dad knows that these men put things up once. With the intention of it NEVER coming down! Yikes! Luckily, when it was down and furniture was removed, it was like a blank canvas.

With all the wallpaper removed, it was time to strip the carpet and put in the hard wood floors the same as the rest of the house.

I painted all the natural wood trim (yuck!) and doors white. The walls were painted “wheat field”. I made my second biggest and first furniture purchase ever…my bedroom set! I felt like such a grown up! My very own king size bed, side tables and dressers!

The rest of the decorations have been just trickling in slowly over the last 3 years and although the room still doesn’t feel finished, it’s getting there.

Here are the before and after pictures.

It honestly felt like a HUGE accomplishment to be able to redo my parents master bedroom as my own. Although it doesn’t feel finished yet, it still feels like my little retreat. Where I go to kick back after a long day to read, relax or watch t.v. Not to mention my sleeping spot and where I lay when I’m sick. Such a multipurpose room!

Hope you have a fantastic weekend!

As baseball celebrates Black History Month, tip your cap to Strode, a survivor, and to coach Davis, who guided him. "I still love him like he was my dad," Strode said of Davis. "He took me under his arms and I'm here today because of him." Davis kept Strode in line, and helped him get to Kentucky State College, where he led the NAIA in strikeouts twice. A fourth-round Draft pick in 1980, Strode pitched in the .Aliexpressite inor Leagues from '80-88 in the Royals, Orioles, Cardinals and Cubs farm systems, and in '84 was named to the Southern League All-Star team after posting a 9-2 record with seven complete games for Double-A Memphis. He became a coach, and was eventually named the Cubs' Minor League pitching coordinator, a post he held from '96-2006. He was promoted to the big league staff in '07 and is entering his 23rd season in the Cubs' organization. Warren County .ite soccer Senior High School in McMinnville saluted Strode's accomplishments when it retired his uniform number in 2006. "I guarantee [the principal] recalled what he said to me," Strode said. "It made me stronger." Davis tried himself to get to the big leagues. He pitched in the Cubs' Minor League system, starting in 1953, and was a teammate of Billy Williams at Ponca City in '57. Growing up in Tennessee, Strode watched the Braves and idolized Hank Aaron. As a p.ite soccer store player, he tried to fashion himself after pitcher Vida Blue because he "liked the way he went about his business." Strode has a good sense of baseball history. He knows the sacrifices black players made to pave the way for him. He's talked to Hall of Famer Williams about the tough times he had to deal with. Strode encountered his share of unenlightened folks. In Double-A, he remembers a fan yelling, "Boy, if it was a watermelon, you would've caught it." "I didn't have to live the life that some of my ancestors lived, but still it was tough times," Strode said. "I'm talking about the late '60s, early '70s. We were st
