Bedroom Scrapbook: Entry #2



This mirrored nightstand (at JCPenney for under $300) and chandelier (by Castlewood) would be so romantic.

Bedroom Scrapbook: Entry #1




Here are the things I've found so far that I really love. This bed by Paula Dean is just dreamy. Just so happens that our current wall color is very similar to that shown in the photo of the bed...makes it easy to picture the whole scene! The bed would also go well with creamy colored drapes; love the Moorish tile pattern of this fabric called "Riad" by Windsor Smith Home. Also love the idea of bringing the ocean inside by accenting the walls with a painting of the ocean with whites, blues and grays.

Bedroom Redecoration

We've lived in the new house for almost three years and have done a lot of decoration of the great room, living room, kitchen and the boys' rooms. The two spare bedrooms have each gotten a coat of paint, but are otherwise undecorated; as is the Master bedroom. The walls are a golden taupe color and there is beautiful white molding around the windows. I either want to stick with the wall color or find a medium gray tone. We have a large dark-wood bed, but no other furniture. All of our clothes are either hanging in the closet, or folded on the closet shelves that are meant for shoes. We definitely need a dresser and maybe an armoire. A new bed might be needed and a side table or two. Frankly, I'm not sure where to start but the blog may help me to catalog some ideas and develop a plan to make this room livable.
