Old Louisville, a quick bedroom update

Over Spring break, we updated the bedroom in our 1890 house. We added wainscotting, picture rails, and completely refinished the fireplace, rebuilt it from scratch (you can see the before in the grey-walled photo). The mantle was found on FB Marketplace, the grate was rusting in the back of Architectural Salvage, the inset is electric from Amazon, the tile is from the Tile Shop. Then we color-saturated the room in SW Naval.

I know this type of dark room isn't for everyone but I find it sexy and soothing.

Bedroom remodel, Louisville, KY

Took a week to remodel the bedroom. Added wainscotting, picture rail, completely rebuilt the fireplace from scratch (new tile, fireplace, and mantle were from antique stores, had to restore them both), then color-saturated everything in SE "Naval."

Just a quick view of my favorite rooms in our Old Louisville Home on the day after the KY Derby, when the calm has returned.
