Designer Saturday: Functionality and Feel Of Master Bedroom

First things first, here is my new furniture! This picture does not give it justice at all.

I absolutely love the rich color of the wood, not to mention I upgraded to a king.. :)

As most of you know, my heart dreams of becoming an interior designer. Living in a small town doesn't really give me that opportunity, but after I found out we could possibly be relocating to a bigger town, I started drawing up designs and dreams if it ever becomes a reality for me. Today I wanted to talk about the "feel of a master bedroom." This is a statement that Candice Olsen often makes on HGTV. You want your master to function the way you need it - some use their master just for sleep, others to relax, other describe it as a "romance cave." (hehe, that last one I made up!) so mainly I wanted to talk about the feel of a space. The picture above shows a room that is so functional. The pros are that it looks spacious and comfortable and that there is no "junk". The cons are that they have large pictures of children above their bed. If you could have ONE place in your house that is kind of a space just for you and your significant other, this is the place. I recommend putting up pictures only of you and your spouse and make this the place that reminds you of your relationship, your love, your dedication, etc.. 

When I started designing my master bedroom, this is the picture that I used to decide what I wanted my master bedroom to look and feel like. I am working on the sand colored walls and also a nice, clean, sleek sofa for the end of the bed. My new bedroom furniture was delivered last week and can I mention it is so nice to have a king size bed!
