I have been waiting patiently (well maybe not so patiently according to Ryan) to show you our brand new master bedroom design! The majority of the space has been done for awhile now, but with most designs, it takes those extra few weeks to finalize the details. For instance, I was waiting on several purchases to arrive in the mail before I could take photos – the pillow I ordered off of Etsy, the closet door knobs, the corner chair. Everything was worth the wait though because this space has come a long way since its pink walls and green carpet days! Even the initial design plan seems like forever ago!
But enough chit chat. Let’s get to this reveal shall we?! Recall the before…
And now the after! Our master bedroom design everyone…
It was important for me to keep the bedroom airy, bright and relaxing. So we painted the walls Decorator’s White from Benjamin Moore and chose a beautiful white oak engineered hardwood. The bed area is the first thing you see when you walk into the space, so I wanted it to look incredibly inviting. Rather than using a lot of colour, I decided to place with textures instead. And, keeping the bed white allowed for the wood of the side tables and the black & brass sconces to really pop! I spent a long time hunting for the right end tables and settled on these beauties from West Elm. Rather than beside lamps, I really wanted to have sconces and thought these brass and black ones (also from West Elm), complimented the room so perfectly. Having sconces not only adds some visual interest, but it keeps my side tables clear for more books! Above the bed, I decided to keep it simple and tack up my engineered print from Laure Joliet. The wall is so grand and tall that finding the right artwork for the right price ($$$) would have been tricky. It may end up getting a bit rough on the bottom edges as time passes (especially when a baby starts to get curious), but for now, it’s a perfect fit.If you remember from the before photo, the room had a beautifully sloped ceiling, but it was covered in that dreadful popcorn stuff and the lighting placement was very strange. So a big part of the renovation consisted of adding beams & wood slats that got a coat of white paint and changing the light placement and fixture completely. The result is both Ryan and I’s favourite part of the room…
It’s a little hard to appreciate how beautiful the ceiling is now, especially with the addition of our massive chandelier, but it really does steal the show! Across from our bed, we have our DIY’ed dresser (see the whole how to post here). I love how this corner of the room came together. I also love the vintage inspired area rug I found after hours of online browsing. It was important that I brought in a hint of colour and a touch of black to anchor the space. Next to our hardwood, it looks spectacular and it hides dog fur so well!Originally, I had a poof in the corner but found that I needed a better place to sit when getting dressed, especially now that my bump is growing and making things a bit more awkward. This chair is actually made for a dining room/kitchen, but it was the right scale and design for this corner so I went for it! The closest area got a complete revamp with new PAX organizing systems, new doors and hardware and, of course, new lighting. I got this semi-flushmount fixture at Home Depot and then sprayed it black to match the rest of the space. And that, my friends, is the entire bedroom tour! What do you think of the transformation?! If you have any questions, feel free to ask in the comments below! Also, you can shop the master bedroom here:
KRISTINA!!! This space is beyond gorgeous! So incredibly dreamy, I love it! Can I come and lay on the floor with your puppies and just stare at the ceiling and that chandelier all day?! SIGH!
YES YOU CAN! Just be prepared to get a little fur on ya lol Thanks so much hun!! Looking forward to seeing you after Blogpodium!! XO
Uhm….this space is PERFECTION!! Time to submit another room to Apt Therapy I think my friend! Just gorgeous XO
Thank you so much D! I think another submission is a good idea too 😉 Thanks for all the support XO
You are too talented!! Can’t wait to see a Kristina Lynne nursery!
And I agree with Diana, another apartment Therapy submission ❤️
Thank you Marisa!! XOXO Nursery will be next 😉
It looks so good! The flooring color is my favorite!! ALSO, popcorn ceiling is my nemesis.
Thank you so much Kalina! Yes, popcorn ceiling is the worst. Covering it with slats was so much easier than scraping it like we did in our main living room. Worst dust of life!!!
such a beautiful bedroom!

Thank you SO much Ashlina! That means so much coming from you! Such a big fan of yours 🙂 xx
Wow, this is exactly the look I am going for in my bedroom! Do you mind sharing a source for the rug? Love it!!
You can shop the entire bedroom in the scroll bar on the bottom of the post. There is a direct link to my rug there for ya 🙂 It’s a great price too!! Enjoy!
Oh sorry I missed that! In your photos the rug looks lighter in colour than the website, do you think your photos are fairly true to how it looks in real life? I love the way it looks in your room- adds just the perfect amount of colour.
No worries! I think my photos show it off pretty accurately. I think I might have even read a comment or two on the website that others had left saying it was a bit more rich in real life. I think it’s the perfect amount of colour too 🙂 Oh, and feels good on the feet too…good quality for a really great price!
The link for the Etsy pillow doesn’t work — do you have another link?
Love the room!
That’s so strange Holly. It’s working ok for me…you could also try my shop page. It is also there under furniture and accessories 🙂
For some reason that link doesn’t work either 🙁
Do you have the name of the etsy seller?
Absolutely beautiful! Love how you curated the prints too.
Thank you so much Justine!! xx
This is so lovely! Can I ask what floors you used? I love them!!
They are great hey?! We love them too! I have to say, we have two dogs and aren’t the most careful people and you can see NO scratches or anything. It is a white oak engineered hardwood. Here in my city I grabbed it from a local hardwood store called Timbre Town.
Do you know what brand the flooring is/ how much you ended up paying per sq ft? I love your floors – and the rest of the room is just beautiful!
Love everything about this room! May I ask where you found the big round mirror?!
Thank you so much! It’s actually just from Ikea 🙂
No way! Thanks for responding! I will be adding it to my next trip!
Love this, wondering what kind of wood or mdf you used for the slats? We are thinking of trying this in our upstairs bedrooms as well to cover up the nasty (popcorn ceilings!)
We did tongue and groove pine. Then painted it white. We just used the basic white trim paint from Home Depot.
Thanks!
I love this bedroom! Can you tell me where the accent pillows behind the striped lumbar pillow are from?
Thanks!
I think I just covered some old ones with a white pillow cover from Ikea. Really simple!
Love the room!! Where did you buy the
dresser?
It is DIY’ed and linked in the post to how I did it 🙂 The original dresser is from Ikea though
Hello,
You are very talented…I love your bedroom makeover! I love the wall color… do you happen to remember the color paint you used?
Thank you.
Thank you so much! We used Simply White by Benjamin Moore 🙂
Love!! That dresser is perfection. Where is it from?!
I DIYed it! You can see the whole transformation in a separate post!
Where did you get the chandelier? Building a house now and love this!
Thanks Cynthia! It’s actually linked right above…also in the shop section at the top of the page 🙂
What size is your rug?
I believe it’s 6 by 9…or 5 by 7, whichever one is available for that rug (which is linked directly) 🙂
Did you do the slats on the ceiling yourself or hire it out? We have popcorn everywhere and have been talking about this solution for ages. I’m desperate to get it done!!
We did them ourselves! Honestly installing and painting is a bit tedious but so much better than removing popcorn ceiling! That’s a huuuuuge job (I know because we did it on our main floor and it was the messiest thing of life). Plus, the slats give the ceiling some texture and style! Good luck!!
Love the room! Currently doing a reno on my own master bedroom and it looks like our styles are very similar. May I ask where you got the curtains? The link above just took me to Pinterest. Thanks
Yeah sometimes that happens if you click the little pinterest icon rather than the image itself. I’ve done that on other people’s sites too! But the curtains are actually just from Ikea 🙂 Good luck on your bedroom reno!!!
Great 🙂 Thanks for replying!
Lovely reno. Where did you get the black doorknob?
I believe we just picked them up at Home Depot! That or Lowe’s…
Do you think this rug would look alright with dark floors?
Of course! It has a nice balance of darker and lighter tones!
Where is your duvet cover from? I LOVE it!
It’s just from Ikea 🙂
I love your room! I wanted to ask where your table clock is from? It’s so pretty.
Thank you!! I got it years ago from Chapters 🙂
Hi there – can you tell me where you got the chair/rug in the corner of the room? Absolutely beautiful room!
I got the white chair from Structube here in Canada (though you can really find these reproductions at so many places)…and the rug is just a faux fur from Ikea. You can get them anywhere!
Looks amazing! Do you know what the semi flushmount from Home Depot is called? The one you painted! Thanks!
I don’t see it on the website right now…this one is kinda similar: https://www.homedepot.ca/en/home/p.1-light-heirloom-bronze-ceiling-fixture.1000729867.html
Hope that helps a little, sorry!
