Don't they say that your bedroom should be your sanctuary, a place where you can go to relax and rejuvenate at the end of the day? I think our bedroom is on it's way-although it's still got a way to go. Today, I'm showing you how the room looks to date, and discussing some of my future plans.
We made a lot of progress when we swapped out our dark leather bed for a fabric upholstered bed with nailhead trim from Overstock.com. I framed pages of a botanical art book to create the art on the far right wall.
I showed you a glimpse into this room before, but couldn't really get a good shot without a wide-angle lens. I was lucky enough to get one for Mother's Day, so I hope to show you more wide shots of our home in the future. For example, here's the view to the sitting room. I'm thinking a large, leaning mirror would be pretty against that blank wall.
Our soothing bedding from Restoration Hardware is still a happy part of the room. I'd like to layer the bedding a little more in the future.
Home Goods has helped furnish the space with the mirror above the bed and the mercury glass lamps.
I like to incorporate books in the decor of every room in our house.
I made a special purchase - peonies - and couldn't believe how much they bloomed on day two. Just gorgeous.
Also on my wish list for this room is the Colette bench from Crate & Barrel for the foot of the bed and new bedside tables. I'm considering these, but still looking:

| Pottery Barn $399.00 (24" wide x 18" deep x 28" high) |
 |
| Overstock.com $216.00 (28.5 inches high x 39.5 inches wide x 17.75 inches deep) |
 |
| West Elm $399 (32 inch diameter x 30 inches high) |
 |
| Pottery Barn $299 (26" diameter, 24.5" high) |
To give you an idea of the look I'm ultimately going for, you might recall some of my favorite bedrooms:

Always a work in progress!
