  4. I’m pretty sure my heart stopped for a second when your page loaded. Your bedroom it so fantastic. Frankly I’m in love… I mean it.

  10. HOLY Sh*t! I about spit out my coffee when i scrolled down from the before to the current! WOW. Amazing. Inspiration. It is absolutely stunning.

    I want to do my living room in yellow and gray…

  12. I think my eyes bugged out for a second when I saw your bedroom. It’s stunning!! You must share the paint colors! Pretty please? 🙂

  13. Wow! That’s one STUNNING bedroom! You’ve done a wonderful job (as per usual!). Your room transformations are nothing short of jaw dropping. I have the same sunburst, but in my home I left it in it’s original state but now that I see yours up on your wall….. This is truly some great inspiration to get my butt in gear and get my master bedroom completed. Thanks for sharing this!

  18. I visit often but have never commented… Thanks for making my work day more fun! This is awesome. Did you make your bed frame?

  33. wowza!!!! I adore it. You have seriously inspired me to use touches of yellow in my Studio (craft space, junk room what have you) I love your bedroom! Everything about it. Maybe one day soon our bedroom will look half as lovely as yours. Great job!

    SMiles!
    Michelle

  45. Wow, you’ve turned an ugly duckling into a beautiful swan! What a transformation. You should contact Norwegian Star with some of your ideas!

  47. Love it, love it. Totally love it.

    What are those colors? And did you do a flat or eggshell finish? Last time I tried painting gray it came out chalky.

    I actually am pondering a sunburst mirror now. I’d never have guessed I’d say that a few months ago.

  51. What did you use to cover your box springs? It’s so hard to find box spring covers in anything other than white…and a fitted sheet is usually too big. I’m in desparate need of one!

  57. Wow! Totally worth the wait! So beautiful. I’ve been dying to do yellow and gray in my bedroom but my room is waaaaaaaaay too dark to pull it off. Thank you for the lovely eye candy. I love your blog!

  58. Uhhhhmm, I don’t think that’s the same room. Did you move? No, seriously it looks AMAZING. I am in awe. What an unbelievable transformation. Thanks for sharing. I’m having a giveaway this week. Stop by and enter if you get a chance.

  59. WOW!!!! It turned out beautifully! Are you completely happy with it? I’m intrigued by the number 4 in the frame–meaning??

  63. LOVE it! I’ve been craving gray and yellow for a while now, they have really cute pillows at Target. And I am as obsessed with Craigslist at you are! 🙂 A girls best friend! Thanks for sharing!

  65. Holy Crap! Michelle, I doesn’t even seem like the same room. I bet Jake loves it as well. Is the bed DIY too? You have such an eye for design. Just beautiful!

  72. Michelle, you are amazing girl. Love seeing how all your hard work paid off. I need tips from you on how you keep your place so clean with two little boys!

  75. Wow Michelle! Your transformation is stunning. I can not believe it’s the same space. You did an amazing job! I LOVE the color scheme and accents. Bravo!

    I’m new to your blog. Nice to “meet” you!

  78. Look at all your comments, you are one pop-u-lar girl!

    It really does look awesome, those before and after pics are wildly differnt.

  79. Okay, all I can say is WOW. Michelle, you are amazing! Your bedroom looks like it is straight out of the pages of a magazine. You are so very, very talented. Good job!

    And the yellow dresser…fantastic!

  80. I GASPED, out loud… The dog had to investigate. Your room is gorgeous! I love every detail! And now I’m craving some grey and yellow… 😀

  83. Stunning Michelle! Could you tell me where you purchased your two throw pillows on the bed and where you purchased your grey and yellow throws on your chair? I think you’ve had the throws a while, but Im still in love with the two pillows and the throws!!

  84. I love it! It is a complete turn around from before. very very artistic and I really cant believe how just changing the color on a dresser can make that big of a difference!

  86. Holy ….! I won’t tell you what I really just blurted out. OMG. Michelle this looks fabulous. I’m totally speechless. This room looks like it was plucked out of a designer magazine. Your husband must be so proud of you because not only are you uber talented, you are saving him a fortune in interior design fees.

    BTW…I mailed your tags yesterday and I tossed in some different shapes this time. Those were freebies.

  88. AMAZING, you did such a good job, it really is gorgeous now. Looks like it has been taken out of a high class decorating magazine 🙂 Congrats!

  91. I am brand new to your site, as it all of 17 minutes new. I have never looked at a makeover and had it brought tears to my eyes!!! This is PHENOMENAL! I *heart* your bedroom! 🙂

  95. Oops sorry!

    I came over via the DIY Showoff…I. LOVE. YOUR. BED. FRAME. If you did that yourself would you mind sharing how?

    Your room seriously looks like a high end hotel room. Love the bold color combos!

    Thanks for sharing such an awesome makeover !

  96. D-d-d-d-d-dang girl! I stared at your chest (ha!) over on design*sponge for the longest time, but now this! I’m *almost* speechless. You’re room is beautiful. You inspired me to paint one of my rooms gray (of course it turned out blue…at least it’s a nice blue). Thank you thank you thank you.

  97. Holy crap! This must have cost you a small fortune to do, but it looks AMAZING!! I honestly can not believe the before and after transformation. This room should be in a magazine.

  98. Love your bedroom makeover!!!!

    We are finishing our basement in grays, whites and probably aubergine so you have inspired me. I am currently looking for a starburst mirror…where did you find yours – or any tips on where to find one at a reasonable price?
    Thx!

  100. This is one my favorite rooms EVER! I can’t wait to try and recreate the mirror over your bed. Your bedroom is straight FABULOUSNESS!

  106. Your bedroom is absolutely stunning!! As is your whole house!! I posted about you and your house on my blog this afternoon…hope that’s ok.

  108. Hi Michelle. This has got to be one of the best makeovers I have ever seen. You have done such an amazing job!! I would very much like to feature it in my blog if you are Ok with it.

  112. Brilliant. I am new as well…following as of today. This room is killer. Any chance you would be willing to share sources on the black and white pillows and the mirror? I LOVE all you have done. By the way, your blog design is impressive as well. LOVE that you offer a tour of your home/creations. Awesome in all areas. Thank you!!!

  113. This room is amazzzzing.

    Im about to put in yellow and gray finishing touches on my bedroom…so your room must have leaked into my subconscious.

    I just bought that yellow and gray pillow this weekend. And I’ve had that white circle on black background for a year. I wish I had bought another one of those – I only ever found 1.

  119. I can’t even breath. What a transformation. This just lit a fire under my butt to finish my bedroom. But hell now I want to start from scratch & paint it grey.

  120. I recently came across your blog and absolutely love it. Your style is amazing and I love, LOVE your room. The bed is awesome and exactly what I have been looking for. And that dresser, is incredible.

  124. OMG it is beautiful. I have only just discovered your blog in the past 2 days and have been working my way through it slowly. Your bedroom is amazing. I just love the colours. Good job!!!

  125. Love the splashes of yellow with the grey. It looks so contemporary! I was wondering if the curtain rods are store-bought or if you custom made them? I have the same type of windows and I was looking for some affordable curtain rods for them. Thanks, and great job!

  128. I LOVE your bedroom. I am actually using the same colors in my Master Bedroom redo. I was wondering what specific knobs you used for the nightstands and dresser?

  129. I LOVE your bedroom. I am actually using the same colors in my Master Bedroom redo. I was wondering what specific knobs you used for the nightstands and dresser?

  136. Michelle,

    Your style is so accessible and gives me great ideas for my new husband’s and my first place!

    Where are your comforters and pillow from? We have a coverlet much like it. Unfortunately my husband bought it before we got married, and never bought any of the coordinating pillows. And now I can’t get them!

  137. that’s beautiful! I’ve been telling my husband for weeks now that I want to re do our bedroom for a while I picked up a yellow gray bedset a few months ago and wanted to build around that and THIS is the perfect inspiration to show him. What a stunning room, awesome job!!

  139. This room is gorgeous!! I love the sunburst mirror above your bed – did you make that or buy it?

    I just found you via the favecrafts blog. I’m pinning your bedroom on Pinterest and will be following you!

  140. Your decorating talent simply amazes me. Your bedroom is absolutely gorgeous and the way you pulled all the colors and textures together is magnificent. Where did you find your bedding (quilt)? I have looked all over the Internet to find one like it. And can’t seem to find one. Also I can’t access the website to see what color u used for your walls. Would you mind sharing that info with us.

  141. Ok I feel so silly now. I just saw that I can tour your house and saw your bedroom with the yellow. I am so in love wiht it. What an amazing change. It’s beautiful.

  143. I am doing the night stand redo and am looking for those exact ring pulls! Do you mind sharing where you found them?

  146. Michelle, could u please tell me where you got the coverlet for your bed, I am looking for a two tone grey one and can’t find one I like!? Your bedroom is gorgeous!

  149. I found your room in Pinterest….our master bedroom is set up EXACTLY the same…too weird..getting ready to hang curtains today…hope they turn out as well as yours!

  150. I also just found the photo of your bedroom on Pintrest and just had to re-pin it!
    My bedroom is a similar layout, and I have been wondering what to do with the windows, besides just the blinds, and now I know.
    Thank you so much for sharing.

  151. Hi Michelle, I saw your bedroom photos on a website somewhere. I can’t remember the website, but I definitely remember your bedroom! I loved it so much I saved the pictures to my laptop (this was before Pinterest came along). We just moved into our first apartment and we’re in the early stages of decorating our bedroom. Thanks for being an inspiration!

  156. This is such a great room. It’s so hard to pull of a dark color for the walls but your use of yellow and accessories makes it work so well!

  157. Beautiful! The lamp in your bedroom on the yellow dresser is that one also from Target. I love it and have been looking for it on-line but do not see it anywhere. Can I ask you how much you paid for your dresser on Craigs list and did you spray paint it or use a brush to paint it. I am dying to find one just like it. You are so inspiring!!!

  160. Okay, I realize this comment is two years late, but I LOVE your bedroom! I actually first saw it in the AZ magazine, where my living room was featured too! I’m thrilled to have resources now so that eventually I can make my bedroom a small replica of yours! 🙂 Great work!

  161. This is a fantastic, fantastic room.

    If this has been asked and answered and I missed it, I apologize.

    Where did you find the ceiling fan? Is the light particularly bright? I really love its clean lines.

    Thank you!
    MrsB

  165. Love your room! Where did you get the tree painting above your dresser? ANd do you have a comforter or just the coverlet? Did all the throw pillows come from target i need white ones like that.

  167. Small, small world. I uploaded your bedroom photo this morning for an Ideabook on Houzz, and then in a completely unrelated traipse around the blog world, stumbled across your blog! Such an amazing eye for design. Great stuff lady – moi, your newest follower.

  168. I totally saw a picture of my dresser on studio 5 just now!!! Or I guess I should say your old dresser that I apparently bought from you! How fun! I don’t know if you ever saw the after picture but it’s now navy! I love it! Thanks for selling it!
