Furniture Shopping For Our Farmhouse Master Bedroom

You know that feeling when you get a room in your house just the way you always dreamed of? It is one of the best feelings and I loved our master bedroom in our previous home.

I had transformed it to our dream bedroom back in the Spring of 2014 after living in our home for 5 years .

Everything worked together so nicely. Mr. Front Porch and I had hunted for YEARS for the perfect bedroom set. We ended up purchasing this set about 11 years ago.

It has been thru 3, soon to be 4 moves. The set has held up as well as any wood furniture would have with so many moves and two little boys. I still remember when our oldest was a little over two and had gotten a bottle of my finger nail polish and started painting one of the nightstands. Oh my! Thankfully I was able to get it off and only I know where it was. Mr. Front Porch was not too happy at the time since it was new. We can laugh about it now. 

With the new house selections I know our bedroom furniture will not look good and I am not wanting to wait 5 years to get our bedroom dreamy. Our current furniture has a cherry/brown finish to it and our new wood floors are a rustic lighter wood with some grey in it. With the flooring selection I have been trying to talk Mr. Front Porch into a new bed and thus have been on the hunt for months for one that would suite us both.

I instantly fell in love with this reproduction pew headboard from The Magnolia Furniture line. It is such a beautiful bed but I was wanting more than just a headboard.

Then I started looking at faux wrought iron beds. Nothing screams farmhouse like a beautiful wrought iron bed! This one I found over on Overstock.com. There is also the same style on Wayfair as well. Mr. Front Porch vetoed the wrought iron bed idea though. He prefers wood.

Oh my this Chatelet Mantel bed by Hooker Furniture is my DREAM bed! It is just simply gorgeous but alas way out of my budget. See, I promised Mr. Front Porch that I was going to pay for our new bed with my blogging money so I need to find something a tad less expensive. Maybe one day this beauty will be mine but for now I will admire from afar. Gotta admit it would look fabulous in our new home though.

I then happened upon the Dogwood bed line. It is stunning as well and also comes in white. It was closer to my budget but still more than what I felt comfortable spending at this time. 

Alas,over the weekend while looking thru Joss & Main I spied this bed and thought hmmm. I ended up finding it for less thru their partner site Birch Lane and there was an additional 20% off for their Labor Day sale. Mr. Front Porch gave a nod of approval for liking the style so I hit submit and ordered it! It got really great reviews and the price could not be beat since the sale was going on and Free Shipping.

Here's hoping it will all look nice in the new house! I am planning on using the same bed linens. Also crossing my fingers it will arrive before the new house is completed. Otherwise I may have created another headache but at least our rental is just a few houses away from our forever home. I can always just sit out on the rental porch and wait for it to arrive!;)
