Before / After : Bedroom


I am finally ready to show some before and after pictures of my bedroom. 

Before:
Oh man I took this picture when we had first moved in, everything was everywhere. 
It was totally intentional to have an unmade bed.... more drastic transformation.

Ok if it's bothering you that much, here is a before with a made bed:



After

I would like to interject here for a second. 
Yes I realize there is a massive blank wall above our bed screaming to be made super cute. However, in the next couple months we will be upgrading our bed to a king. 
Yup, I said King. 
I am so stinking excited. 
What's that? 
Yes of course I cuddle with my husband all. night. long. 
I just want to have the option to not touch another human if I don't want.
p.s. Trevor and I are both spread eagle sleepers.
So with a king will come a different headboard; Trev wants a fabric one, I want wrought iron...we'll see.

Before


After
Yes, my room may be having a 
silver / grey   
gold / brown 
identity crisis. It just happened.
Also, yes, that is a vision board.

Before

After
Do you love my pictures?

I have this great photo of Trevor and I dancing from our wedding. 
It reminded me of other dancing pieces specifically these ones by Renoir and Vettriano.


I have zero photoshop experience but I wanted our photograph to look more like a painting. So I watched a few tutorials, played around, and this is what I came up with:

Original

And after I tampered with it

I know it could probably be done much better but I will take it. 
Photoshop is hard.
