Our bed room is completed!! And with this, the primary areas of our bed room suite are completed — the lobby, the walk-in closet with the laundry space, our toilet, and now our bed room. I nonetheless have yet another space to complete (the storage closet), however that must wait some time. At the very least for now, I can shut the doorways on that closet (which is at present a toilet) and all the things else is completed. So with out additional delay, right here’s our new completed bed room…

I’m completely thrilled with how this bed room turned out. It was an enormous enterprise. In the event you’ve been round some time, you understand that this room was our dwelling fitness center. (You may see the entire earlier than and after of our dwelling fitness center right here.) And it might in all probability nonetheless be our dwelling fitness center if we hadn’t had some main flooring points that required all new subfloors and hardwood flooring. It was throughout that disaster that we determined to show this space of our dwelling into our master suite suite. And in hindsight, I’m so grateful that it turned out the way in which it did. I feel utilizing this space of the home as our bed room suite has surpassed my expectations and turned out so significantly better than our authentic plans of constructing an addition onto the home to incorporate a brand-new master suite and closet.
So let me present you the way this space has advanced through the years. Once we purchased the home, this room appeared like this…

After which I turned the room into a house fitness center, which appeared like this…


And now that is our bed room, and that very same view seems to be like this…


The room has at all times had just a little “hallway” within the entrance, but it surely used to have a door resulting in this little hallway and into the room.


We nonetheless have that little hallway main from the lobby into the bed room, but it surely’s about three toes shorter now than it was when the room was a house fitness center. And now, there’s no door from the lobby into the bed room. I had that door, and the wall round it, eliminated in order that the 2 areas are open to one another.


Right here’s what the wall on the entrance of the home appeared like after we purchased the home. It had a window, and you may see that there was a closet on the wall to the left of this wall.


When this was our dwelling fitness center, we stored that window and I had the closet space opened up (i.e., there have been no doorways on the closet) in order that it felt extra open to the room.


However after we determined to make use of this as our bed room, I had the closet eliminated fully to make the precise bed room bigger, and we had the window changed with a door.


Right here’s a greater take a look at how the wall with the closet appeared after we purchased the home…


And right here’s the way it appeared when it was opened up for our dwelling fitness center.


And now these partitions that surrounded the closet space are fully gone, which left extra room for a recliner and dresser. Eradicating that closet make the room really feel a lot larger.


After which wanting again in the direction of the doorway to the room, you’ll be able to see that the closet fashioned that little “hallway” entrance into the room, but it surely was solely about three toes lengthy, which was the depth of the closet behind that wall. You could possibly nonetheless see the door.


However after we moved the wall within the hallway (i.e., the lobby) to sq. up the room subsequent to this one to show it into our toilet, that made the “hallway” entrance to the room about twice as lengthy, and you possibly can not see the door from this view.


However now that the closet partitions are gone, and the door and wall surrounding the door are gone, the world seems to be way more open. There’s nonetheless just a little hallway from the lobby into the bed room, but it surely’s again to being about three toes lengthy once more. And with out the door and wall surrounding the door, it really feel way more open now.


Once we purchased the home, this wall of the room was a stable wall. The unique master suite was on the opposite aspect of that wall, and each this room and the unique master suite had been accessible through doorways within the hallway.


However after we turned the unique master suite into our new grasp toilet, we moved the wall within the hallway, closed up the door that initially went from the hallway into that room, and added a brand new doorway from the house fitness center into the brand new grasp toilet. Our authentic plan was so as to add a brand new master suite on the opposite aspect of our new toilet. Had we caught with that plan, all three rooms — the house fitness center, the brand new grasp toilet, and our new master suite — would have all been related with doorways main from one room to the following.


However now that this room is our bed room, our toilet may be very conveniently positioned by means of this door.


These are the entire earlier than and after image I’ve for you, so now let’s get into the small print. The wallpaper that I used isn’t out there anymore, but it surely’s similar to a grasscloth wallpaper by Thibault. So should you’re looking for teal grasscloth wallpaper, I counsel wanting there first.


The ceramic birds are from Amazon (affiliate hyperlink), and I really like birds, so I used a complete lot of them and created a freeform wall set up with them.


I’ve to say that the fandelier has far exceeded our expectations. Matt has commented a number of occasions now how a lot he loves it. We’ve each been shocked at simply how a lot air circulation comes from that small fan.


I took so many footage (a ridiculous variety of footage, to be trustworthy), so I’ll maintain my commentary to a minimal and simply let y’all go searching.






I had initially deliberate to border the TV after which discover a fairly artwork screensaver for the TV. However in the long run, I made a decision that I don’t actually thoughts that there’s an enormous TV on the wall of our bed room, and I don’t need to disguise it. I’ll let the precise paintings be paintings, and I’ll let the TV simply be a TV. I’m really fairly happy with the way it seems to be, and extra importantly, it capabilities nice for us.


I feel that virtually covers all the things! If I’ve left something out that you really want extra details about, simply let me know!
