Desperate Decision for the Bedroom

Click me!

Okay, not so desperate, I just wanted to get someone’s input on my next project.

It’s time to focus on the master bedroom. I have posted on the crab shack (plans for that are coming along great), but it is really the entire area that needs attention. This is how the room looked when we bought the home:

Shocking isn’t it? Here’s how it looks now:

And in a few weeks it’s going to look amazing! After much debate I have decided to paint an accent wall. I had my heart set on grasscloth wallpaper, but that is like a bajillion dollars, so this is the next best thing. I want the bedroom to be relaxing because I love sleeping more than almost anything, ever. It can’t be too feminine, because I share the room with a dude. I want to paint a pattern using a glossy paint of the same color as the current eggshell paint for a subtle, but distinct upgrade. I am drawn to more modern or Moroccan patterns so if anyone out there could weigh in on their favorite I would appreciate it! I am down to three options:

Cascade, stencil by Cutting Edge Stencils

Large Herringbone by Royal Design Studio

Or Moroccan also by Royal Design Studio

So friends, thoughts?

    My vote…cascade all the way! Definitely the most relaxing. I have a herringbone rug is my bedroom & it’s surprisingly “noisy”!

    Cascade by a landslide. The herringbone isn’t relaxing at all, and almost makes me dizzy! The Moroccan also feels like too much. (But wait, let me tell you how I really feel…!) Can’t wait to see it!
