Oh man guys. I have been SO STOKED about this blog post for, like, weeks. I’ve been getting it ready to share with you and yes, it is another guest post! Meet Chanel. She is the face behind Life with Henry + Evie. She is so cute and sweet and her home…? INCREDIBLE. Just wait. I squealed out loud when she sent over this post. I’ve been dying to get some home decor posts up for you all, but it is so hard when I live in an apartment the size of a shoe box (ya feel me?). Anyways. Read on to see Chanel’s bedroom makeover and start pinning to those dream boards.

 
Hi! My name is Chanel and I blog over at Life with Henry + Evie. My husband and I live in the suburbs of Atlanta and love the city except for the hot summers. We were married in 2011 and had our first born in 2012. Henry is our wild four-year old who keeps us on our toes. In 2015, we welcomed a baby girl, Evelyn, who brings such sweetness to our family and balances us out. We have a dog who thinks he’s a cat and two cats who want to be dogs. My dream is to pack up our family and head to the PNW where I can wear leggings and flannels all day long. I like coffee with my cream, could eat tacos for breakfast, my hair is 90% dry shampoo and there are currently 163 books on my Amazon wish list. So there’s that.

I am so excited to share our master bedroom makeover with everyone today! We’ve have been working on this redesign since April and it’s finally come together after a few long months. I’m so lucky to have a husband who let me take the reigns on this one and was so open to all of my (sometimes) crazy suggestions. I had always envisioned a romantic and contemporary space where I could decompress and escape after a long day of kid wrangling and I am so happy that I have it now.

You know the feeling you get when you walk into a hotel room? The one that screams “vacation” because there isn’t laundry piled up or legos on the floor. That is the feeling I wanted to evoke when we walked into our room. I wanted to create a space that was calming, clean and clutter free. I chose white linens and accents to brighten the room since ours doesn’t get much light. The lamps from Kenroy Home give the room that touch of glamor and I love how sleek they are.

A mirror was added above the bed to make the room appear bigger, the walls were given a fresh color, new blinds were installed and my grandmother made the window treatments and matching bed pillow. We kept our same bedding which we had purchased last year and it fit in perfectly. There is just something about white bedding that pulls me in. The picture on my husband’s nightstand table was taken about 20 minutes prior to us getting engaged and will always be my favorite because that was the real start of our life journey together.

As far as accents for the night stands, I chose beautiful marble coasters, a candle and a diffuser for each side. The wood grain accents give just the right hint of warmth and really pop against the white end table. My husband and I are also diehard ceiling fan addicts and the original one in the room dated back to 1985 and were definitely in need of an upgrade. I chose this gorgeous brushed steel fan from Emerson Fans. The design is sleek and contemporary and despite being powerful it is also extremely quiet. The color mimics the silver accents throughout the room and ties everything together.

This little reading nook may be my favorite part of the room. I’m not sure if I will ever have time to read here, but it’s nice to dream.

  1. Your bedroom is gorgeous. I really wish I could have white linens but I have 3 dogs and 2 cats that would destroy that pretty quick, I like the reading nook the best. I need a reading nook now but in a different color. LOL

  9. Her bedroom looks STUNNING! My bedroom is the one thing I’ve had full control over designing and decorating. While I’m right there with your “living in a shoebox of an apartment”, I still love to look at other people’s designs. Gives me some inspiration for the future!

  13. Oh my goodness Chanel’s room is beautiful!! I live in the PNW and all those things: leggings, flannels, coffee, and Amazon fit perfectly here.
    I LOVE ATLANTA!!
    I don’t think I’d love the summer there (because I’ve done Texas and South Carolina summers) but I wouldn’t mind living there. 🙂

  23. LOVE your makeover and want to duplicate it in my house! My master bedroom is kinda tiny, so I might have to think about how to “make it work” on a smaller scale! Gorgeous!

  27. That is one classy bedroom. I wish I had the chance to redo our bedroom. We just moved in, but we are still unsure if we would be moving again within this year, so my husband vetoed any “large” redecorating. I’m already getting away with drapes and rugs as it is though.

  30. More than anything, I admire her courage to have white linens with two small children in her bedroom! 🙂 The style is simple and elegant all at the same time.
