Sneak Peek: Master Bedroom

It's amazing what some paint and new switches will do to a room!  Recall the old switch plates and registers were mostly painted mauve to match the walls and the switches were that cream color (with the requisite mauve splotches from where they missed their target)?  We wanted to freshen that up with new white switches and plates, which also meant matching registers.  Jonathan was a fabulous electrician and only electrocuted himself once (that he admitted to) - the wiring in this house is really odd and he did a great job figuring it all out.

We love it!  The color is a little off due to the time of day and the work light we had on - the walls are light grey and dark grey:

Did you notice that we took down the dentil moulding (Does that have a "u" in it?  I've seen it both ways, but don't like using the word "mold" to describe something in the bedroom.) from under the crown?  It was really pretty, but just didn't suit our taste for the master bedroom.  Luckily it was a separate piece from the crown moulding so it came down easily and in full pieces, but I did then have to stain the underside of the crown (which, of course, I subsequently splotched intermittently with grey paint...).

Also, the curtains on the slider are temporary and will move to a light color wall, but we had to put something up ASAP because I haven't found the right curtains yet and we weren't fond of this beauty they left behind:

The curtains and finding stuff for the walls are Jonathan's favorite parts, I'm sure...  So, it's getting there - one room at a time!
