Master Bedroom Inspiration

Our Master Bedroom has been way way down on the completion list since moving in.
.
But now that the baby's room, and den are done I decided this room now only needs minor accessories to complete.
.
When my husband and i began discussing what we would do in our room I knew i wanted linen.
.
EVERYWHERE.
.
SO... in 3 very short days.... I will get my pinch pleat linen drapes I have been dreaming of.
.
Did I mention my mommy is a WONDERFUL seamstress.
.
And for christmas she is making my dream drapes...
.
I am sooooo excited about this. you don't even know!!!!

I have been collecting pictures for my inspiration for some time now. 


In the above picture there is a beautiful beautiful chair....
.
Well i have a slightly rougher version i found on the side of the road currently living in my garage.
.
With the right fabric, and a great upholsterer I think i can achieve this same look.

In this picture I am OBSESSED with the lamps.
.
Now i am just trying to decide if i buy Goodwill finds and repurpose or if I buy really nice lamps i will have forever.
.
Decisions, decisions....

I am flirting with the idea of adding in hints of yellow.
.
What do yall think of mixing cream, natural linen, dark walnut furniture and hints of yellow??

This picture is from our local tour of homes show. 
.
This room was designed by a local store i have forbid myself of going in thus far...
.
for obvious reasons...
.
If i go in... i can guaran"dang"tee i will come out with something amazing...
Saw these gorgeous stripes recently on Remodelholic.
.
I have wanted some sort of stripped walls for as long as i can remember and i am SOOOOO pumped about using this paint/glaze.
**not being paid to endorse this item
this is what was shown in the post on remodelaholic
and i love the outcome so i feel a trip to Lowe's is in my future.
This chenille/jute rug is on sale at Restoration Hardware and I think it would look good in the room.
.
Thoughts??
.
Should i choose something fancier??
Inspiration photo of my curtains... 
.
Restoration... you make me swoon.
And this fabric... How do we feel about a tan/cream variation of this for my found on road dead chair???

Or.... (hubby not so keen on this one...) painting the room a soft muted butter color.

Clearly I need some reassurance here....
.
Curtains decided...
.
Bedding decided.
.
Furniture already have.
.
Walls?? no clue, stay tan?
.
Fancier rug?? if so... where do i find it?
.
Hope everyone is starting to relax and actually be able to enjoy the holiday...





*all photo's were googled over a duration of time. some are cottage living, southern living, bhg. most sources unknown.

first of all i love the idea of a linen covered room!! i have a linen duvet from the pottery barn and i'm obsessed with it! it goes with everything and whenever i want to change my room, i'll still be able to keep the same duvet. i also love the rug from restoration hardware. don't you just love that place?? i wish i had an unlimited budget to spend there and pb!! the fabric for the chair is divine and i even like the color of the swatch you have shown. that would even go with yellow walls--which you could easily make masculine--tell casey that! yellow does not have to mean girly! can't wait to see the finished room!

uhh restoration is my dream store. haha suprisingly casey really loves everything we have decided to put together for the room. faux finishing the rods tomm. and getting the clips to hang my panels. cant wait to share that minor before and after.

Sigh.. loving ALL of these. I have been on a "natural fibers" kinda kick, too- burlap has been my poison. You go girl with that PB Matine toile. My vote is for more naturals on the walls. Moons ago I had yellow on the walls. I both loved and hated it. I was always longing for something a bit more cozy! Good Luck- it will turn out great!! I am playing in the house this week too!
