Bedroom Plan Update

I have a confession to make. I didn't get to start my meal planning menu as I had wanted to last night. I didn't realize Billy the floor guy was planning on sanding and coating my kitchen, breakfast nook, and front hall yesterday...so I was pretty much trapped in the basement for the afternoon. The kitchen is kinda the "through-way" of our house, meaning you need to go through there to get to the garage, basement, living room, um...everywhere. Kinda annoying. Did I mention I will be so glad when Billy the floor guy is no longer making a daily appearance at my house? Because it seriously cannot be soon enough. Hopefully I will be back to my scheduled menu plan tonight!

So what did I do all day while I was trapped in the basement? Read blogs and online shopped. Oh, and I saw Inception. I know I'm a little late to jump on this train, but my goodness how great was that movie!? 

Thanks to some wedding gift cards that we had strategically saved, I was able to go on a little mini online shopping spree last night, for house things of course. And now, I can feel the master bedroom plan coming together.

Our final choice for a bed. This was a more cost effective option and will be much more proportional for our room than the other beds I had shared last week.

Valencia II Sleigh Bed

Our bedding. We already have the duvet, which was given as a shower gift, but  I ordered the shams and another decorative pillow.

Matine Toile Bedding

We have a dresser from an antique shop which I love and are in search of another one for hubby. Luckily our room has some built in drawers that he is currently using. We will also be on the hunt for some bedside tables. As soon as the bed gets delivered I will for sure have {real} pictures!

Another piece I'm lusting after is a vanity. I never thought I would want a vanity, but I've always had a bathroom with some counter space! Now that hubby and I share a smaller bathroom {we were lucky enough to have our own bathrooms in our old apartment!} with a pedestal sink and no counter, it's hard to put on make up and use a curling iron or straightener, little things like that. Check out some inspiration photos I have saved.

My favorites are the mirrored glass vanities, but I've had a hard time finding any that are affordable. I did come across this beauty, which has serious possibilities. Plus,  it's on sale!

Possibly my favorite part? The little stool! It looks very similar to the second inspiration photo, and you can customize the upholstery for it. These are some of my favorite patterns:

Thanks for all of your supportive comments on my house plans so far! It really means more to me than you know. I can't wait until things physically start coming together! Soon enough, friends!
