Kendra @ Domestic Princess in Training said...

Oh my goodness, I absolutely LOVE it!!!! I love how you carried your punches of yellow into your bedroom as well. You have such lovely style. I’ve always loved yellow but have been too afraid to add it to my home. You’ve done it in such a tasteful manner. The bed is beautiful. Did you create the wooden artwork? Love it too.

Marcie said...

I think my eyes bugged out for a second when I saw your bedroom. It's stunning!! You must share the paint colors! Pretty please? :)

Unknown said...

Wow! That's one STUNNING bedroom! You've done a wonderful job (as per usual!). Your room transformations are nothing short of jaw dropping. I have the same sunburst, but in my home I left it in it's original state but now that I see yours up on your wall..... This is truly some great inspiration to get my butt in gear and get my master bedroom completed. Thanks for sharing this!

Wallpaper said...

Just jaw-droppingly stunning!

Cat said...

Love it, love it. Totally love it.

What are those colors? And did you do a flat or eggshell finish? Last time I tried painting gray it came out chalky.

I actually am pondering a sunburst mirror now. I'd never have guessed I'd say that a few months ago.

Lynett said...

OMG! It's so gorgeous! You are amazing!!!!

HomageBlog said...

Aaaaahhhhhh! I have been dying to see these pics! Beautiful - grey and yellow is my current FAVORITE color combination. ~K

ebova said...

What did you use to cover your box springs? It's so hard to find box spring covers in anything other than white...and a fitted sheet is usually too big. I'm in desparate need of one!

Miss Mustard Seed said...

Oh my word, that is gorgeous!

A Wedding Story said...

You rock.

Becky Holmes said...

Stunning Michelle! Could you tell me where you purchased your two throw pillows on the bed and where you purchased your grey and yellow throws on your chair? I think you've had the throws a while, but Im still in love with the two pillows and the throws!!

Hinckley Family said...

I love it! It is a complete turn around from before. very very artistic and I really cant believe how just changing the color on a dresser can make that big of a difference!

Kate said...

Amazing! I'm so impressed with your style!

Anonymous said...

Holy ....! I won't tell you what I really just blurted out. OMG. Michelle this looks fabulous. I'm totally speechless. This room looks like it was plucked out of a designer magazine. Your husband must be so proud of you because not only are you uber talented, you are saving him a fortune in interior design fees.

BTW...I mailed your tags yesterday and I tossed in some different shapes this time. Those were freebies.

Your room seriously looks like a high end hotel room. Love the bold color combos!

Georgia said...

D-d-d-d-d-dang girl! I stared at your chest (ha!) over on design*sponge for the longest time, but now this! I'm *almost* speechless. You're room is beautiful. You inspired me to paint one of my rooms gray (of course it turned out blue...at least it's a nice blue). Thank you thank you thank you.

Wife and Mother. said...

Holy crap! This must have cost you a small fortune to do, but it looks AMAZING!! I honestly can not believe the before and after transformation. This room should be in a magazine.

Jen said...

Love your bedroom makeover!!!!

We are finishing our basement in grays, whites and probably aubergine so you have inspired me. I am currently looking for a starburst mirror...where did you find yours - or any tips on where to find one at a reasonable price?
Thx!

A-mazing!

I wish I could have done this kind of color scheme.

Michelle Marsh said...

Brilliant. I am new as well...following as of today. This room is killer. Any chance you would be willing to share sources on the black and white pillows and the mirror? I LOVE all you have done. By the way, your blog design is impressive as well. LOVE that you offer a tour of your home/creations. Awesome in all areas. Thank you!!!

Mrs. Limestone said...

This room is amazzzzing.

Im about to put in yellow and gray finishing touches on my bedroom...so your room must have leaked into my subconscious.

I just bought that yellow and gray pillow this weekend. And I've had that white circle on black background for a year. I wish I had bought another one of those - I only ever found 1.

Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality said...

Gorgeous! I don't think I've been by your blog before, how is that possible? I thought I had seen all the decor blogs out there. You did a marvelous job on this room.

Looking around at your other rooms!

TC said...

Fantastic job! I LOVE the lamps on your nightstands. Where are they from?

Unknown said...

Thanks Tara. Lamps are from good ole' Target.

I can't even breath. What a transformation. This just lit a fire under my butt to finish my bedroom. But hell now I want to start from scratch & paint it grey.

OMG it is beautiful. I have only just discovered your blog in the past 2 days and have been working my way through it slowly. Your bedroom is amazing. I just love the colours. Good job!!!

mom2tnt said...

Love the splashes of yellow with the grey. It looks so contemporary! I was wondering if the curtain rods are store-bought or if you custom made them? I have the same type of windows and I was looking for some affordable curtain rods for them. Thanks, and great job!

Did you make the frame for your bed as well? It looks amazing!!

Little Lisa said...

Michelle,

Your style is so accessible and gives me great ideas for my new husband's and my first place!

Where are your comforters and pillow from? We have a coverlet much like it. Unfortunately my husband bought it before we got married, and never bought any of the coordinating pillows. And now I can't get them!

Unknown said...

that's beautiful! I've been telling my husband for weeks now that I want to re do our bedroom for a while I picked up a yellow gray bedset a few months ago and wanted to build around that and THIS is the perfect inspiration to show him. What a stunning room, awesome job!!

Anonymous said...

Looking to redo my master bedroom. Where did you buy the bedding from? Great job!!!

Staci K. said...

This room is gorgeous!! I love the sunburst mirror above your bed - did you make that or buy it?

I just found you via the favecrafts blog. I'm pinning your bedroom on Pinterest and will be following you!

Anonymous said...

Your decorating talent simply amazes me. Your bedroom is absolutely gorgeous and the way you pulled all the colors and textures together is magnificent. Where did you find your bedding (quilt)? I have looked all over the Internet to find one like it. And can't seem to find one. Also I can't access the website to see what color u used for your walls. Would you mind sharing that info with us.

Celesa Felix said...

Ok I feel so silly now. I just saw that I can tour your house and saw your bedroom with the yellow. I am so in love wiht it. What an amazing change. It's beautiful.

Simply beautiful!!! what color grey is that

I also just found the photo of your bedroom on Pintrest and just had to re-pin it!
My bedroom is a similar layout, and I have been wondering what to do with the windows, besides just the blinds, and now I know.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Dee @ V+D at Home said...

Hi Michelle, I saw your bedroom photos on a website somewhere. I can't remember the website, but I definitely remember your bedroom! I loved it so much I saved the pictures to my laptop (this was before Pinterest came along). We just moved into our first apartment and we're in the early stages of decorating our bedroom. Thanks for being an inspiration!

Margie said...

This is such a great room. It's so hard to pull of a dark color for the walls but your use of yellow and accessories makes it work so well!

tboe said...

Beautiful! The lamp in your bedroom on the yellow dresser is that one also from Target. I love it and have been looking for it on-line but do not see it anywhere. Can I ask you how much you paid for your dresser on Craigs list and did you spray paint it or use a brush to paint it. I am dying to find one just like it. You are so inspiring!!!

Susana said...

thanks for sharing you house is amazing!!!!

Lamp Bargains said...

What an amazing make over. Everything is just so new and great. Thank you so much for sharing.

MeL said...

Okay, I realize this comment is two years late, but I LOVE your bedroom! I actually first saw it in the AZ magazine, where my living room was featured too! I'm thrilled to have resources now so that eventually I can make my bedroom a small replica of yours! :) Great work!

This is a fantastic, fantastic room.

If this has been asked and answered and I missed it, I apologize.

Where did you find the ceiling fan? Is the light particularly bright? I really love its clean lines.

Thank you!
