Dream Master Bathroom

Alas, the final post in the Dream Home series (for now, at least!). You’ve seen inspiration for our future (as in… way future) master bedroom and closethome office, laundry room, living room, kitchen and playroom. One of the rooms that I love spending time in the most is our master bathroom – which is attached to our closet. We designed it exactly like the inspiration I posted years ago here.

I get more and more anxious to build our dream home as the weeks go by, which is not helped by our nightly walks around our neighborhood, where there are at least ten tear-down and rebuild projects within a 1-mile radius. We even got a home tour by an owner by being extra creepy on Sunday – snooping sometimes pays off!

In the meantime, I’ll just keep searching for inspiration for our dream master bathroom. Some of my requirements (or perhaps just nice-to-haves) include:

  • Large custom mirrors
  • Natural lighting (so important when putting on makeup)
  • Farmhouse sinks
  • Wainscoting on the cabinets (we have this and I love the detail!)
  • Like most of the other ‘dream’ rooms, a lovely chandelier
  • Lots of cabinets – with built-in storage for cosmetics (like this)
  • Calcutta gold marble or white quartz countertops
  • Stand-alone bathtub (would love a claw foot or sleek modern one!)
  • Little coffee station – I love this idea so much!
  • Flowers or greenery
  • Open shelves for towels and frames/candles

What does your dream master bathroom look like?

Dream Home Office Spaces

I am sitting in our home office as I type this post, and while I love this little sanctuary room, there is quite a bit I would love to change… but that involves knocking down walls to create more natural light (cue Sasha rolling his eyes). I love a bright, clean, modern office – much like the dream laundry room, playroomkitchen, master bedroom, and living room posts.

I’ve put together an assortment of my favorite home offices. I think that the essentials include:

  • Large white desk with lots of easily accessible storage space
  • A massive iMac (thank you, Sasha!)
  • White framed prints (with pops of gold and pink)
  • A bold, colorful rug
  • A shelf above the desk for above mentioned frames or books/knick-knacks
  • A modern, interestingly design office chair (we love ours from CB2!)
  • Foliage – whether it be a large ficus or small potted succulents, greenery is key
  • A unique lamp (my favorite is the Audrey Lamp from Lulu & Georgia)

Do you have a home office? If so, do you spend a lot of time there? What are your ‘essentials’?

Dream Laundry Room

If you would have told me five years ago that I would one day lust over a laundry room, I would have thought you were absolutely insane. Now that we do one load per day for our sweet little one in our small laundry room, I get it. In our next house (or home addition… fingers crossed on this one!), I want a big laundry room with plenty of folding, hanging, storing and washing space. I’ve been saving lots of images of all white kitchens, then saw a gorgeous dark wood room and was almost swayed. I’m sharing my inspiration below! Which is your favorite? Do you dream of spacious, well organized laundry rooms too?

Ideal laundry room requirements:

  • Big, white farmhouse sink
  • Plenty of natural light
  • Large, interesting light fixtures
  • Lots of cabinets and shelving
  • Racks to hang clothing
  • Double washer and dryer (hey, a girl can dream!)
  • Subway white tiles for the floor or backsplash
  • Constant supply of gorgeous flowers or greenery
  • Comfortable seating (love the thought of a dual purposed room with desk space)

Dream Playrooms

The dream home series continues! This week, I’m sharing dream playrooms (see previously posted dream kitchen, master bedroom, and living room). I seriously dislike bright colors, which is why Isla’s nursery is decorated with such neutral, cool colors. I feel similarly about the style of a playroom, but I know that kids like bright colors, so I may have to get over this disdain at some point in life.

I’ve put together a collection of my favorite playrooms – some which I would copy exactly and others which have elements I like. See my inspiration below!

Dream Master Bedrooms

Sasha has finally (yes, finally!) agreed to redo our master bedroom. It was the only room in the house that we did not buy a new furniture set for when we moved, and I have been dying to decorate the room in a style that better sits both of us. I have long lusted after a crisp, cream room with a tall, fabric headboard, light bedside tables, a pop of color (perhaps in the pillows), a big mirror, tall bookshelf, big armoire, etc.

I have been saving images of my favorite master bedrooms on my computer, many of which are shown below. I will be bringing these with me as I begin my furniture shopping in the next few weeks. If you’ve got a good idea as to where I can find similar items to the pictures below in Houston (or online), please let me know! I’ve got Ethan Allen, West Elm, Restoration Hardware, Crate and Barrel, Design Within Reach, and Pottery Barn on my list.
