Tonight I'm taking you on a quick scoot around the master bedroom.  Ooh-er Missus, as my pals would say when we lived in England. Aaaanyway, I meant to post on all the bedrooms but then I ran out of time and we're driving up to Tahoe in a minute. You'll notice there are not that many words either. Hmm...C'mon let's trot up the stairs, before you start sipping that well-earned Friday Night cocktail!

Up we go!

Here's our bedroom which has only a bed and side tables. The bed covers and walls are light blue.

The bathroom is one big wet room, with mostly inexpensive large Porcelanosa tile

I suppose I like my bedroom and bathroom kind of minimal.  And why? Next week I'll give you a peek into the kids' bedrooms - a veritable Mt. Vesuvius of effluvia: knitted bracelets, broken ceramics, old Valentine choccy wrappers and bits of random plastic whatsits from goody bags.

How do you like your bedroom? Sparse or full of comforting things?
