Admittedly, it seems like every six months or so, I get an itch to redo one (or more) rooms in the house. Honestly, I can’t help it… I’m perfectly accepting of change in one (and possibly only?) aspect of my life and it’s on the home decor front. And with having just finished up our guest bedroom makeover, I couldn’t stop myself from giving Jeff and I’s bedroom a quick facelift too. It’s a sickness really.
So, I partnered with Parachute, an amazing home textiles company with the coziest bedding you can imagine, for a master bedroom update that I’m certain will last longer than all the others. Even Jeff is fully onboard. Yay!
This time around, I paired everything down – erring toward a more refined color palette of neutrals, mixed with just a few pops of color. And playing up natural textures and finishes we already had, with a few new pieces that we’ll have for the long haul.
That said, this is still (kind of) a work in progress. I’m almost there…just need to frame the piece above the bed and eventually switch out my inexpensive rug solution with the rug of my dreams. BUT I’m not in the market for a $2,000+ rug at the moment, so my DIY solution will work for now.
I just bought two identical 5×7 rugs and laid them next to each other on the floor to form one large 10×7 rug for under the bed. It’s not perfect, but it was under $350 total, and fills out the room pretty well for now.
Aside from the rug and some new (matching) nightstands from Ikea, we changed out all the bedding. In part because I wanted a change. AND in part because Luna (our 11 year old pitbull) loves to play on the bed. As a result, she’s ripped many, MANY sheet sets to shreds over the years, with her craziness… the girl plays hard. Eeeek! So, we got some new ones from Parachute. And let me tell you, they are AMAZING.
We got the Percale Venice Set in white (which includes a fitted sheet, duvet cover, and two pillowcases), plus white Essential Shams (which are quilted), and Euro Shams (in sand). And the whole setup feels straight from a fancy hotel, which I’m super into. Sleep is VERY important to me…I could practically sleep through the weekend if someone would let me. So, cozy AF bedding is pretty important in my book.
And if you’re looking for other super soft textiles, I have their alpaca throw in natural. It’s crazy soft and Franz likes it too, as you can see. 🙂
Other than that, with the exception of the black and white Acapulco chair (which is new), we already had the furniture…two vintage dressers, a Blu Dot mirror, and our platform bed frame. And the accessories for the most part were already in the space too – they just needed some rearranging.

Thanks Michelle. 🙂 It was fun to work on!
BrittniIt’s such a smart idea to place two identical rugs together to make one. Your bedroom is looking quite cozy I must with your new parachute bedding!

JessicaSo pretty + fresh!! Where is your modern circular table lamp from?
HollyParing down my belongings and achieving a more minimal lifestyle are my goals for 2017. The neutral color palette that you chose fits in so well with that approach. I’m in LOVE with that throw; it looks so cozy!
KimberlyLove the art!! Can you share the sources? Thanks!
Morgan McCloskeyThanks Holly. The circular table lamp is from West Elm. Here’s the link: http://rstyle.me/n/b9k3xwmvmw
BrittniThanks Kimberly. It’s really, really soft. I love it.
BrittniThe marble art (and the cat) are perfection!
Corina NikaThanks Corina. 🙂
BrittniWhere are those rugs from? Love the look and the color!
Colleen M ClarkI love what you did with the rug! It doesn’t look like it’s two separate pieces at all!
LindsayHi Colleen and Lindsay. The rugs are from Target. I couldn’t find a link online to the exact ones I used, which is why it isn’t linked up in the post. 🙁 I purchased them in store, so I’d recommended checking a local store out to see what you can find. Hope that helps!
BrittniYou know, usually I’m not into mid-century decor, but I’m really, really digging the vibes of this room! This makes me actually rethink my take on mid-century decor…

Happy to hear that this makeover is making you rethink it, Sofia. I’m a big believer in being able to incorporate nearly any style into your home, if done right.
BrittniWhere is the gorgeous artwork above the bed from??
ClaireHi Claire. The print is a collab between Debbie Carlos and Scout & Catalogue. Here’s the link: https://store.debbiecarlos.com/collections/guest-artist-posters/products/guest-artist-scout-catalogue-a-study-in-marbling
BrittniWhere is the black lamp from? I love it and am looking for something just like it.
KristinaHi Kristina. The black lamp is from West Elm (I’ve had it for a year or two now though, so I don’t know if it’s still available).
BrittniI love how you put it all together!
Elaine TurnerA similar bedroom is my dream. All is simple laconically, but there are bright spots, pleasant structures.
HardmanHi Brittni, very cool, love the vibe! Madly into minimal styling, just love the green planter on the dresser, where can I find one?! Thanks 🙂
FionaHi Fiona. The green planter is from Fort Standard. Here’s a link: http://www.fsobjects.com/objects/standing-bowl-large
BrittniI’m really interested in the Parachute bedding, as I’m seeking that “luxury hotel” feel. I bought a sheet set from West Elm last year that was super disappointing as it was pilling within a month, and now it’s downright uncomfortable. I’m annoyed at how much I spent on them and want to make sure the next set won’t do the same! How have your Parachute set held up? And did you buy a flat sheet to go with the Venice set? Lovely room!
Callie CooperHi Callie. I honestly LOVE our bedding from Parachute. The sheets and duvet have held up really well – no complaints at all. I would highly recommend them. And yes, we have a flat sheet as well.
BrittniI am planning to decor my bed room like yours.
rainalooks so stylish!
NadenThe Black lamp is really really awesome. It just making the whole scene beautiful by 200% 🙂
Any change I can also buy it?
JaxonThanks Jaxon. I bought the lamp from West Elm a long time ago. But I just check and it’s actual still available. Yay! Here’s the link: http://rstyle.me/n/cjyqcvmvmw
BrittniCan you tell me where the two B&W leaning prints are from? Love.it.all
MICHELLEHi Michelle. The black and white leaning print on the bedside stand is actually the one that came with the frame. Ha! It’s from West Elm. Here’s the link: http://rstyle.me/n/cnd74jmvmw And the larger black and white frame on the long dresser is from a local artist in Atlanta.
BrittniI love the idea of combining the two rugs. This makes me actually think of redoing my bedroom. The black and white leaning print on the bedside stand is also awesome.
Zach DavisA similar bedroom is my dream. Im going to setup it very soon. Thank u !
DoganI really love the rug…just beautiful!
CarlWe’re just looking (by “we” I mean my wife and I) at the way you paired the contemporary, the art and the Acapulco chair and the abstract with the rustic look of the rug. Kudos!
My wife is in love with the chair, which means that there’s gonna be some back and forth and we’ll ed up getting it, it’s how it works in the Ozment home 🙂 Where did you get it and how deep I can expect to lunge into my wallet for it?
BobReally love the art and especially the amazing rug. Everything is so smooth and cool. Thanks for sharing it.
HaniyaYour bedroom is looking cozy, beautiful, simply elegant. In love with the parachute bedding and the way you combining 2 rugs together (btw your rugs motif very beautiful). So inspiring!
