our master bedroom, again.

Remember when I showed you this photo from here. I fell in love with the bedroom. The more I looked at it, the more I realized I could get that same look for our room.

I had kind of put our room together but something was off. It wasn't done, and it didn't have that cozy feeling I wanted. So in pure Megan fashion I re-did it, or actually finished it, the window side anyway...

The finished product...

About a year ago I came across a vintage book of birds and knew I could use it one day. I envisioned them all framed and lining a staircase. The frames are all frames I already had as well. Most of them vintage find from thrift stores. The majority were painted black, {chalkboard actually as it was the only black I had}. The gold frames were gold ones I already had as well.

The fabric for the pillows is a Ralph Lauren fabric that was on clearance at Joann's.

I edited the bedsides as well from the first make-over... here's my side...





And hubby's side... {still need a lampshade for that lamp}



{my favorite trophy of my hubby's}



It feels so much more put together now, until I look across the room. There's a very large and heavy dresser in need of some paint and new hardware over there. Hopefully one day soon.


Also last week my mom and dad celebrated a birthday, their birthdays are next to each other... Happy Birthday!!! Hope you all had a wonderful time in London... yep that's where they spent it, or at least the days just before. This is them years ago... before kids and marriage, my mom may have even still been in her teens here. It was taken at my Noni and Nono's house {my dad's parents, and grandparents in Italian}. Aren't those light sconces fabulous! I wish we still knew where they were...

Anywho, when I eventually get to painting the dresser I'll share those pictures with you. Have a great weekend!
