The Master Bedroom

Most people have WAY too much going on in their master bedroom.  If I were to narrow it now to the essentials this would be this list:

Bed
Night stand with lamp and alarm (possibly one nightstand on each side)
Dresser
Closet with clothing

That's it?  Yes, Ma'am it is.  Bedrooms should be simple and clutter free.  When we first moved to our house we had five rooms in one.  Our master bedroom was also the office, nursery, laundry room and entertainment center.  We really did have our washer and dryer in there.  Not kidding.  If I ever find before pictures I will post them.  It was ridiculous.  We de-cluttered and took out everything that didn't belong. We also stuck with all neutral colors.  If you love color or need a splash of it use calming tones.  Colors like blue, green or purples are great companions for neutrals.  Try to stay away from lots of red, orange or yellow.   Our de-cluttered and made over room is so relaxing now.  I don't know what we were thinking before!

The master bedroom is a great place to start de-cluttering.  Start this project this weekend and improve your chances of getting a great night's sleep.  Who doesn't love sleep right?  Good luck!
