Loving Neutrals

I often decorate with neutral colors.  To me, they are more soothing, especially in the master suite.

The paint color is Classic Taupe, Olympic brand I think. I bought this comforter set at Wal Mart, BHG brand.  It has micro suede blocks of fabric, which I really like.

 Just pretend you don't see my CPAP machine on the night stand.  Keeping it real!
  The runner on the dresser is the one I made from a drop cloth, and trimmed with burlap garland.

Now pretend you don't see the fan.  :) My husband drove a truck for over 40 years and got used to hearing the truck run while he slept, so we run a fan.  I know there are white noise machines, I have one--not the same. 
These french doors lead into the sun room.


 The neutral colors are carried on into the master bath.

 Love my soaker tub.  I chose not to have jets.

The tub surround is porcelain tile exactly like that on the floor.  I really love this tile, and wish I had put the same tile in my kitchen, sun room, and breakfast nook.  It's so much easier to clean than what I have.

The husband loves white linens.  He can bleach them all he likes.  :)  Did I ever tell you he may be a neat freak?  Just sayin'.

Still keeping it real folks.  :)  My mirrors are framed with beveled mirror strips. I have enjoyed these.  When we built this home, brass fixtures were the rage, but they don't bother me at all.  They're good quality, and easily cleaned.

Well there you have it, a peek at the master suite at Sharing Shadymont.  Hope you enjoyed your tour!

I'm linking to a few good parties, and hope you'll drop by for a visit.

  2. What a pretty, relaxing room, and I love your comforter. I run a fan most of the time too, it's just a little too quiet without it, plus I like the air moving a little bit even if its not blowing in my direction.

    Your tub is fabulous, I have one on my list for my next house!

And the print you framed is just perfect in your room!!!

  5. I love your tub area ~ that must be heaven to soak in! I've been liking white towels myself lately. Yes, to be able to just throw bleach in and have them looking pristine after a wash! I'm slowly picking up new ones and banishing the old to the rag basket.

  6. I love your pretty bedroom and bath. I think the bedding is so lovely and the BHG line at Walmart has some pretty stuff.
    I have a fan too in my bedroom and cannot sleep without it, so I understand. Also I never thought about having the tub installed without the jets, good idea.
    I'm all about white towels, they just look cleaner and prettier.

  7. What a pretty and soothing master suite. I also keep a fan on in the bedroom....for the noise.....and the hot flashes too (talk about keeping it real) I LOVE your soaker tub....our tub is so shallow, it's like trying to bath in a foot basin....very unsatisfying.
