Finished For Friday: Cabin Master Bedroom Remodel

I am glad I have something to post this week for Finished For Friday hosted by Lit and Laundry. Be sure to check out all the projects that were finished this week, I assure you, that you will be inspired.

This week, I am going to show you the completed remodel of our master bedroom at our place in Colorado. But like all good reveals, first, are the before pictures. They were not too bad, but it was needing an update.

Basically, here is the same ole' 70's paneling that used to be throughout the cabin.

Another look. With all the windows in this room, it was not too dark...just looked dated.

Remember the wall I told you where we found the alcohol bottle ? Well, this would be said wall. We took out a closet because it added a little more space to the room, behind all of this outdoors siding and multiple layers of wall....was that little bottle. Oh, and this would be Steve as he is telling me for the 100th time that we have way too much work to do to finish in a weeks time. I just smile and say....get busy then!

Once everything was taken down, it was time to build it back up. This was no easy task to say the least. It took several hours to demolish the old walls.

I sorta just stood around with my camera....at least that is what the guys would say....I was really monitoring breaks....as in NO BREAKS...too much work!!

We were lucky, and had wonderful weather the entire week.

I had purchased two wall sconces last fall at the church bazaar. They were used, but I purchased them anyway not knowing if they worked or not.I only paid $20.00 for the two, and felt like maybe someone remodeled and donated their old lights to the church. This is Matt....getting ready to install the lights.


We also installed new ceiling lights. I love this light. I purchased two of these, one for each bedroom. They were on clearance at Cabella's.....and were a steal!


Here is the finished bedroom.....notice the lights? What do you think?? I think they look like they were made for this room.

Remember the tutorial I showed you a couple of weeks ago on making this mirror? Well, here is the finished mirror hanging in the master bedroom. I love this wall decor.

Here is another view........


And this is the view looking the other direction. Do yo see that picture hanging on the wall closest to the door? You will never guess what this is......

This room originally had this stove pipe cover on the ceiling. I showed this quiet a while ago in THIS post back in 2008. I could not bring myself to throw it out. The back still had the original price of .29 cents. I took part of the ceiling paneling, and attached this pipe cover and framed it as a wall hanging. I really love this, and what a great way to save an original part of the room.

Remember I said this was a Finished For Friday post, and well, Steve was pretty much finished, Matt most likely was too, he just tried not to show it. Remember, I was the drill sergeant and allowed no breaks......that's why they both pretty much look finished.........worn out....finished! Steve said he needed a vacation from his vacation!
