Master Bedroom Inspiration

At Home· Bedroom· Home Decor· Renovations

18 Feb

The second floor progress has now moved from the future lounge / Bedroom #3 into our master bedroom.  This all started with needing new dressers and turned into a long series of projects that never really included completely redoing our bedroom.  Now that we’ve started, I’m excited to finally be finishing our master bedroom right. It starts today with some master bedroom inspiration.

It’s interesting to see how my style and tastes change and evolve over time.  I’m not sure if B and I have one specific style because we like elements from different styles.  For our bedroom, I didn’t really have a vision when we started. As I mentioned, this was really only supposed to be new dressers.

Once we began working on the Lounge / Bedroom #3, I decided to carry the paint colors into our room as well.  When our new furniture was delivered, it was put in the lounge and the dark wood of the furniture was a nice contrast with the light walls and grey trim.

Our furniture has a traditional / vintage feel.  We both commented when it arrived that it has a sort of updated look of furniture we may have found in our grandparents homes.  

Because the gray trim and white walls have a historic / vintage feel to them and the furniture has a similar vibe that’s also traditional, I really wanted to make sure our bedroom didn’t suddenly feel out of place with the rest of the house.  I’m embracing our more modern traditional tastes in this room but I’m hoping to be able to add touches of other styles we love to keep this room more in line with the rest of the house.

Below are a few images that reflect the feel we are going for.  Lots of neutrals, patterns and textures with small pops of color.  We won’t have a huge feature wall so I’m leaning toward finding some really amazing curtains.

5 Ways to Transition Your Decor from Fall to Christmas (Without Feeling Rushed)

There’s something about a cottage-inspired home that instantly feels welcoming. Maybe it’s the layers of soft fabrics, the warm glow of a lamp in the corner, or the way everyday items are displayed with charm. To me, “cozy” doesn’t mean cluttered — it means creating a space where you can truly relax and enjoy the simple beauty of home. Over the years, I’ve discovered a few essentials that always make our home feel inviting and comfortable. These cozy touches are timeless, affordable, and easy to add no matter the size or style of your home. 🛋️ Soft Layers & Textiles Nothing says cozy like a stack of pillows and a throw draped over the sofa. I love mixing neutral tones with subtle patterns — florals, stripes, or checks — to create that layered, collected look. In bedrooms, a quilt or coverlet at the foot of the bed adds both charm and warmth. Image Suggestion: Wide shot of your living room sofa with throws and pillows layered. Pin-worthy vertical image. 🕯️ Warm Lighting Overhead lighting can feel harsh, so I rely on lamps, sconces, and even candles to create a warm glow. A cottage-inspired home shines with layered lighting — the soft glow of a lamp in the evening makes a room instantly more inviting. Image Suggestion: Close-up of a side table with a lamp, book stack, and candle burning. 🌿 Natural Elements Fresh flowers in simple vases, a basket by the door, a vintage wooden bowl — natural elements bring warmth and texture to a cottage home. Even faux greenery works if you mix it thoughtfully. Image Suggestion: Seasonal arrangement on your entryway table or kitchen counter (sunflowers, hydrangeas, or eucalyptus in fall). 📚 Personal Touches Books, artwork, and vintage finds tell your story. A stack of well-loved novels, a thrifted oil painting, or a collection of blue-and-white dishes make a space feel lived in and personal. Cozy isn’t about buying new — it’s about surrounding yourself with what you love. Image Suggestion: Styled bookcase or coffee table vignette with books + art + personal accents. 🧺 Comfort Underfoot Rugs are one of the easiest ways to add coziness to a room. I love mixing a natural jute or sisal rug with a smaller patterned rug layered on top. It adds instant warmth and that collected, cottage feel. Image Suggestion: Angle of your living room or bedroom showing layered rugs. 🍵 Kitchen Comforts A cozy home isn’t complete without the kitchen. For me, it’s having a favorite mug for my morning coffee, simple linen towels, and a candle flickering while I cook dinner. These small details make the everyday feel special. Image Suggestion: Coffee setup with mugs + candle + linen towel. Conclusion At the end of the day, creating a cozy cottage-inspired home isn’t about following strict rules. It’s about layering soft textures, adding warm light, and filling your rooms with pieces that feel personal and meaningful. These cozy essentials are what make our house feel like home — and I hope they inspire you to create the same in your space.
