Master Bedroom

Sadly when we started the whole new carpet/paint everything phase, I was more excited and focused on getting it all done in time and forgot to take good "before" shots.  So you get "after" shots and you'll just have to imagine the nasty carpet and bare, unpainted white walls (maybe it's better that way  :).
One of our main issues in our master bedroom is storage.  We have the same closet space that the boy's room has, unfortunately our clothes are twice as big and twice as plentiful as theirs.  So we've been overflowing for a while.  IKEA to the rescue.  We found these fabulous closets there that fit right against the wall and hold SO MUCH STUFF!  
And then for the first time in our entire 8 year marriage, we bought furniture!!! Don't get me wrong, it was great to be cheap and get things off craigslist- even our bed mattresses :) and it was even better to just inherit furniture in our house that Taylor's parents didn't want or need any more.  So nice while we were paying off student debt to have everything we needed even if it wasn't nice or new or really ours.  But it's nice to have a bed frame and furniture that matches.
Unfortunately our bedroom is the least done of all 4 rooms.  I picked a pale yellow for the walls hoping to find a comforter in navy blue with some yellow highlights.  Sadly- THEY DON'T EXIST!  So we're kind of on hold until we can find something to go with the walls cause they are NOT getting repainted.
