We’re in the process of remodeling our master bathroom and I. Am. So. Excited. Seriously. So excited. We’re going to have a rain head in our shower y’all.

Did I mention I was so excited?

Our master bathroom is the only room in the house that we had made zero improvements to since we moved in 3 1/2 years ago and we are doing a major overhaul. I can’t wait to share before and after pictures with you. Well, I can’t wait to share the after pictures, the before pictures are pretty embarrassing. But anyway, I digress. 

This post is actually about my master bedroom, which has also been in the slow process of being remodeled over the past several months. We have done some updates to this room since moving in; new floors, new doors, new paint (in fact, two rounds of new paint), but for the most part it was a dumping ground of leftovers and a home of “what will work for now?” And as lovely of a statement that has been, I have really been in the need of an oasis for some time now.

One of those “what will work for now?” solutions was some inexpensive nightstands from Walmart that we picked up a little while after moving in. These are our first actual nightstands we ever had since getting married. Yes, it’s true, we had never had nightstands before these, we had just used little folding trays. But we are adults, and were in need of something with some actual storage for all our nighttime reading and gold doubloons, so when we saw these nightstands on clearance at Walmart we were like, “that’ll do”.  And it did. Does. Do. Whatever. But I knew that I could spruce them up somehow, I just wasn’t sure exactly what I wanted to do until a few weeks ago.

I decided to use some pages to decorate the front of the drawers for an easy update. Books are near and dear to my heart so it seemed like appropriate décor for our master bedroom.

Believe it or not, this project actually took shorter than the book page pumpkins did, it was one of those naptime projects that makes you feel really accomplished afterwards. After I was finished with the decoupage on  the drawer fronts I took off the old knobs and replaced them with this beauties.

I used more of the book pages from my pumpkin project and I already had the new knobs (I had bought them awhile ago specifically for these nightstands) so this makeover cost me absolutely nothing. You know, technically. Whoop whoop, you’ve got to love projects like that, huh?!

I am really pleased with how they turned out and hope that this will get the ball rolling on more of the master bedroom projects. I think next up should be a new ceiling fan…

What about you? Is your bedroom the one space that gets left behind? Working on any projects to spruce it up lately?
