\u00a0What happened with that?<\/p>\n<p>Long story short, I didn&#8217;t like how it was coming along and gave up.<\/p>\n<p>Long story, I got that blue tufted wingback headboard I was obsessed with and after two months of living with it, realized it wasn&#8217;t me and got rid of it (thank goodness for good return policies, and an important example of actually trying things out in the home). \u00a0In my mind it looked awesome but in the bedroom\u00a0it just wasn&#8217;t making sense, and that&#8217;s always upsetting. \u00a0A lot of you have shared similar stories with me so I want you to know: I feel you.<\/p>\n<p>After that fail, I went back to ignoring the bedroom, though if we look at this in a positive light, what I was really doing was taking the time to figure out what I wanted. \u00a0We could also call this &#8216;lots of time spent on Pinterest.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;re going minimal and neutral.<\/p>\n<p>This answer has always been there, for everything, lurking around\u00a0every\u00a0corner as I&#8217;d insist with\u00a0myself to go big and out of my\u00a0comfort zone, but this time it didn&#8217;t work out. \u00a0We&#8217;re sticking with the\u00a0heart.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-9538\"
