Hello! Hello! Hope you are having a great week. The family room accessory update is complete (for now)!! I remembered I had some small accessory updates in the master bedroom. When I showed you the spare bedroom redo here I told you that I took the chair from the master bedroom. Well that left me with a gaping hole in the wall. I was used to sitting in it and watching TV or putting my socks on and my husband was used to throwing his dirty clothes on it :) So I had to find a new one, I didn't want to spend a lot of money and I knew it had to be comfortable. So I went to my local furniture store, thinking I was going to pick up a clearance or "last one" type of deal. But as I was walking around I saw this cute little chair that would be perfect. I was so excited, and it was only $150. I thought that was a good deal for an armchair.
Of course this caused a spiraling of changes. The chair is cream, but almost gray undertones. So of course the rugs didn't work anymore, and I took the bench/ (whatever it is) and put it at the foot of the spare bed. So I wanted a bench as well. I picked one up and Kirkland’s for around 40 bucks. It is zebra, which I’m not a fan of, but for 40 bucks I can recover it. So after that, I also took my old nightstands and put them in the spare bedroom. They look much better in there. better height for the bed, good fit all around. As I was browsing for the chair I stumbled across some end tables with drawers. They already matched my dresser and armorie so I had to get them. I’m all about saving a buck but "eclectic" mismatched bedroom furniture is not my style. I think things look neater and more sophisticated when the furniture is all of the same collection.
Before: Which is after the "mini" update, you can read about that here
yea these pics are with an iphone, sorry :)
After:
I now think the zebra bench adds a little spice to the room. It works much better with the new rugs. I did get new ones to match for the attached master bath:

Thanks so much for your comment! I love them equally! I got the nikob d3100 and it's fantastic, I'm addicted to it! It takes some learning though...
Beautiful rooms and photos. I have that same bed and my Mr. is a firefighter also (if that's your husband in your profile picture?). We have so much in common. :) Thanks for sharing. I saw your bed @ just a touch of gray.
@Dusty, Thanks! Its a great bed isnt it? Yes that is my other half in my profile pic. I love hearing from other firefighter wives, there should be a show for us!
