*Survey* Room Makeover Face-Off

February 5, 2017 | 35 Comments

Happy Super Bowl Sunday! While most years I watch for the commercials (1. I am more of a college football fan (SEC!), and 2. I’m not used to our team making it to the big game), this is a big year for my husband us! It will only be my husband and I watching tonight (although our menu may appear otherwise) so I am really going to work on being “one of the guys”. In the last playoff game, I started getting into character. But, when I said a play was “sick” he said, “people don’t say that anymore… now, you say ‘stupid’.” Umm, I still don’t really get the logic behind that but I’ll try to brush up on my terminology before tonight. 😉

I secured everything in a 7a.m. grocery store run and yes, it may be a little overboard for two but I’m looking forward to getting to have Super Bowls snacks the entire week. Here’s what’s on the  menu:

Ok, so back to the actual point of this post. I NEED YOUR HELP! I am considering a different kind of face-off and battle, today. I am committing to another room makeover this spring (if you missed my last One Room Challenge, you can find my Home Office Reveal from this past fall HERE). I have been planning to make over another guest bedroom but am now wondering if I should work on my master instead. Here’s the deal. We have three guest bedrooms. There’s the downstairs guest bedroom (Nan’s room) (HERE) – it will eventually get a face lift, too.

And, there’s the white room (HERE).

The white room is actually connected to another room via Jack and Jill bathroom, which I don’t show. It has the basics. And, decor leftovers. Basically just enough to sleep guests when needed.

The third and final guest bedroom would see a complete overhaul. A drastic before and after. And, I am/was pretty excited about it. But, here’s my conflict. My master bedroom is big. I don’t show much of it because I never completed it. And, a lot of what is in there, I want to change. (Dave doesn’t know this part yet haha). I love a lot of what is in there so most furniture would stay. It would likely be more expensive and, it wouldn’t be as drastic of a before and after. But, it would finally be done.

So… please help! What would you rather see? 1. A guest bedroom, completely transformed with more drastic before and after (I despise that room right now); or, 2. My master bedroom, more of a mini transformation but finally finished (I don’t hate that room, I’m just not happy with it). I’ll announce the final verdict in a few weeks. you can use the below link to weigh in.

There’s only one question- your vote is so appreciated!

    I think you should do MY bedroom:)
    Honestly though, I would do the master bedroom. It is a room you personally spend a lot of time in. It is one thing to ‘like’ the room…but another to be in ‘love’ with a room. As for the guest room, you can perk it up so that you ‘like’ it with the addition of flowers, throw cushions….whatever you do to brighten it will no doubt be blog worthy and beautiful…but go for falling in love with the room where you fall in love with your hubby!! Does that make any sense? LOL

    If I were investing money on a make-over, I would want it spent on a room I see a lot, Therefore, finish your master 🙂

    I agree to finish your master! That is your place to unwind and tbh, it is called ‘the master’ so should be treated as such. 😉

    Love all your rooms! Maybe take the furniture, bedding, and/or accents you want to change in your master and partially upgrade your guest room with them. Then do your master how you would really love to. Win win for 2 rooms.

    Perfect the master. You need to enjoy your work and you use that room every day. It will help you relax and wake up smiling! Plus- I need some new creative ideas for my master, as well. I am sure everyone does!

    Just think of how much joy your office has brought you! If you complete your master, the two rooms you spend the most in will be done. I don’t need to see a dramatic before and after, I’m just happy to see something that you love decorated and styled in a way that pleases you! That said, I know you will do an amazing job on the room you choose to makeover!

    I’m with the rest of them. You spend so much time in your master bedroom, so why not finish it off and enjoy it every day. The other guest room can wait a while since you already have two other rooms to share with guests. Having two perfect guest rooms is plenty for now since most people rarely have more than 2 couples stay over at the same time. (except Xmas)

    You know what I’m going to say, Kelley!! I wrote a blog post partly on this subject but I definitely think you should do your master bedroom! That is where you spend so much time and it should be your sanctuary at the end of the day. That said, I think which ever you decide to do will be amazing and I can’t wait to see it this spring!!! Xoxo

    Hi Kelley,

    My vote goes to your master bedroom. Your special place should reflect your special talent and with that will be creating a special, beautiful place to bring you your own special place. I’m sure whatever room you choose, it will again be amazingly beautiful! Can’t wait to see!
