Bedroom Makeover {Take 3?}

You guys know me pretty well by now. You know that I love to decorate and change things up. I get a lot of flack from my family about the rotating designs in our home, but I can't help it. Decorating is my hobby, and when one project is finished it's time to move on to the next one. That's how I justify it; hey, it works for me!

Maybe if I did this sort of thing for a living, I wouldn't change my own home so much! Haha...now that's a thought, right?

Anyhoo, I mentioned that little Apartment Therapy House Tour a few days ago and when it rolled around I decided I needed to change up the bedroom.

Now you see, that thought had been on the back burner of my mind for awhile and the House Tour just kicked that desire into high gear.

Everything kind of fell together and I like it like that. First up, was a change of nightstands. I have wanted for a long while to break up the bedroom set that we've had for over 5 years {that's like an eternity at our house} with some vintage pieces.

My dear buddy craigslist came through with a great new set and within a day, they were mine.

Then, I spotted some great lamps on craigslist and they became mine as well.

After we picked up the lamps we stopped at an antique mall and I spotted two great twin wicker headboards for only $18. I snagged those bad boys up and zip tied them together to make for a queen headboard. Ever since Nicole posted about this headboard, I had not been able to get that image out of my head.

I think my new one mimics this one and I'm thrilled!

I have long adored this inspiration image and decided it was time to replicate the pillows you see with the aqua trim.

Instead of aqua, I used a deep purple and bought some coordinating shams from Crate and Barrel. I had the leopard pillow in the office and decided to bring that in to the bedroom. I played pillow switcheroo for awhile until I found one that was just right.

I used Jenny's tutorial to make mini-blind roman shades {even though I miscalculated the amount of fabric I needed} and hung those up in place of the others.

And, that's not all, but I think this post is long enough! Stay tuned for a couple shots of the rest of the room.

Stay warm, friends!
