please help me style my new construction master bedroom!

6 years ago

Hi all! We are almost finished construction on our new home. Looking for help styling the master (pics attached mid construction pardon the mess and poor lighting) The experts here always help me out so hoping to crowd source some awesome ideas!

Our style is transitional with a lean towards modern farmhouse / pottery barn aesthetic. We are not mid century modern nor full on shabby chic people.

We are getting all new furniture for our master.

You walk into a small little alcove and then see the two windows which I imagine will flank the bed. We are hoping for a king size bed and nightstands, and opposite that thinking two dressers, one on each of the walls that flanks the cased opening (leads to dual walk in closets and a master bath).

I also have a vintage family heirloom vanity that I will need to set up with an additional small drawer storage piece for my makeup area,

And would love a leaning full length mirror somewhere as well as a little seating area.

Ideally would also love a third dresser somewhere but unsure if this is overkill (I have a huge shoe and bag collection which will need to be housed in my closet along with my hanging clothes, so will probably need to fold a lot of clothes. ) it’s hard to picture BC our old home was small and lacked closet space so I used a tiny bedroom as my walk in closet for my clothes shoes bags and vanity, and I want to make that all work here while also looking pretty and purposeful. I folded the majority of my clothes in my old house and with my closet measurements I am imagining I will need one dresser for myself here plus possibly a smaller lingerie type dresser?

Thanks for reading and for your help!

Sorry but reall o shopping online and at least provide us with something you like . IMO way to vague to get any real help. Could we see the piece you are thinking of using for a make up vanity.

I definitely want to see the vintage heirloom vanity, too, and some inspiration pics of styles that appeal to you. Or pick one item that you need and let people work around it. Otherwise any ideas we would throw out would be pretty random.

I really like the look of the Harper bed at pottery barn, we are aiming to do most likely a king size upholstered bed like this one. As for the vanity, it is currently in storage as we are living in a short term apartment, but the closest I could find on Google would be like the shape of this brown attached here, but without the side drawers. It’s just kind of like spindle legs and one little drawer in the middle, it has a mirror top. I had used a vanity skirt on it previously but I plan on refinishing it Once we move, probably in a similar look to the white vanity below like a white paint with some distressing.

These are some pieces I had saved as inspiration, I think this is the look I am going for like a distressed white paint with a natural wood top. I was thinking a wide chest of drawers On the bigger wall leading to the walk-in closet, with the TV on top of that. I hate exposed TVs but idk what other choice I have. (TV is for my spouse). Then in the smaller wall leading to the walk in, I was debating a taller chest of drawers, or perhaps the vanity angled in the corner and a lingerie chest type set of drawers next to it for my make up? I currently am using an IKEA Alex drawer set for my make up and perfume and it’s very functional but I want to replace it with something that matches better. Or, I was thinking of angling the vanity and one of the back corners? Not sure if that would work though. I was picturing nightstands below the window but still on the hunt for these as I want them to look a little different than the rest of the furniture, still matching but not identical. Perhaps a white weathered wood with a mirrored top?

This is the nightstand inspo that I was thinking it could tie together the mirrored vanity top? I don’t like matchy matchy bedroom “sets” but do like everything to go together.

I also have a distressed silver small side table that I was thinking perhaps placing in a corner with a chair or two for a little seating area? I’m not sure if this will be too much going on. The table is also in storage right now, used it as an end table at my old house but with the toddler it’s not sturdy enough for me to trust it out in a regular space.

Finally was wondering if along that wall when you first walk into the bedroom like that long wall if I should put a white chest of drawers with a mirror.

Obviously I don’t think everything that I mentioned will fit, throwing out ideas that I had considered and that’s why I’m going here for help because I am clueless!
