Before and After: Master

The master bedroom was… interesting.

2011-09-17_14-59-35_628See when you have a kid who has a major house dust allergy, things like trendy nightstand pendent chandelier things are on the list of decor that is the enemy. It’s like asking for EXTRA things to dust. Who would want that?

Our niece Rebekah thought they were so cool and looked like earrings. She was bummed when we put in the ever popular ceiling mounted “boob” lights. But hey, less to dust. That is our motto around here.

IMG_9020Pretend I keep pretty things here. Okay.

IMG_9021I’ve got these plant shelves in every.single.room of the house. I wish I didn’t, they are a pain in my dusting tukkis.  But they are nice to put crap on…. It’s a love hate relationship.

IMG_9025See that armoire? That’s my closet. This is the first house we’ve lived in that the master only had one closet in. I don’t have many cloths so Jon get the “real” closet. He has almost three times as many clothes as I do. Work, church, regular….
