New master bedroom makeover

If you haven't already heard, we decided to do a little bedroom makeover. I spilled foundation makeup all over our comforter when I ran over to catch Pierce from rolling off the bed awhile back. I had no idea that foundation stains so badly!!! So I decided to go ahead and get a new comforter, sheets, curtains, etc..

I fell in love with this damask comforter right away when I found it online. I then bought yellow and white striped sheets from pottery barn to go with it (since I usually love that color combo). However, when I put them together on my bed I was a little disappointed since it looked a little off to me. (They always look different when you see them in person)

Then I talked Chris into a last minute decision to paint our walls a light to med gray hoping it would make the bedding look better. We went out and bought the paint without taking the swatches home first.... BIG mistake!!!! We brought the paint home, put it on the walls, and it was almost black!!! So we went back to the store and ended up adding a gallon of white paint to lighten it up. It did help, however, it still wasn't as light as I had planned. Even though Chris had been a great sport this entire time, he said that we would have to use the paint the way it was or not at all. So we ended up using a med gray on the walls even though I still think it looks a little dark for our room. I now call our room our "little cave" or our "love dungeon" ha ha! It really doesn't look that bad I'm exaggerating just a little :) You will have to let me know what you think :)
