Bedroom Inspiration :: Adding Freshness

August 21, 2012 · 9 Comments

As I mentioned yesterday, I’m officially moving out west to Arizona in October! I’m excited to not only be traveling to start a new chapter in my life and experience many new things with my dear friend Katie, but I’ll have my own space again. I can’t wait to transform my room into a little haven and create a look that is completely fresh. Moving across the country can be quite expensive, so I’ll be bringing a limited amount with me, but I’m looking forward to going to thrift stores and finding great pieces I can DIY. I’ve always loved white rooms because they’re bright and make me feel like I’m outside. I want my room to be a relaxing retreat with a mixture of vintage, romantic, beachy, modern and eclectic touches. These images instantly grabbed my attention and made me feel happy. Can’t wait to start pulling it all together!

This Anthropologie duvet was the inspiration for my room. I choose the light grey shade because the walls in my new room are a standard white/ivory. I want my bed to be the focal point in the room, and the large flowers draw your eye instantly towards it. I have a vintage blue throw with crochet detailing that will be the perfect pop of color.

I want to feel pretty every morning waking up, so I want to use soft tones, fresh flowers, vintage pieces and sheer fabrics.

Bedroom Inspiration :: Adding Freshness

I love the idea of repurposing unique vintage finds as a bedside table.

I like the look of a large table on the other side of the bed. I have a piece that can be transformed into a stylish bed side book shelf.

 I want to bring a rustic feel for my headboard by using repurposed doors or creating my own wood headboard with my favorite basalt grey colored stain.

Although, I want an all white room, I’ll be adding some freshness with pops of neutral and bright tones. I love combining small hints of mints, bronzes/gold, coral, pinks and blues. These colors aren’t overpowering and add a fun energy to the room.

    I love light and airy rooms like this. The one with the mint wall would be a great accent.

I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early da I love Lisboa in June🌿especially those early days w. remnants of the previous month still lingering…
the fragrant & gorgeous Jacaranda trees lighting up cobblestone alleys lined w. pastel colored buildings, becoming more vibrant as Summer’s heat begins to near….
Walking along the Rio Tejo feeling so close to the sea but not quite there & the streets not yet crowded w. vacationers basking in the city’s delight … walking around Lisboa is certainly a creative treat!! I’d love to be able to squeeze in a little summer travel; change of scenery is always such an inspiration, especially when life seems a bit crazy these days. 

Any fun summer travels planned? Hope everyone enjoys the first weekend of summer🌼

how fleeting you have been sweet, darling June… how fleeting you have been
sweet, darling June…

it seems we’re all being kept too busy these days, I don’t want the simple treasures of this month to go by so quickly but it’s like I haven’t slowed down enough to catch my breath between events & to do’s — not since my birthday, these flowers & a cake I enjoyed making too much to photograph. They weren’t for my birthday, but for someone else’s, but it really was the joy of creating this arrangement however way the color yellow called to me, foraging for delicate peonies, garden roses & stems that would make these uniquely special🌿

Not the most picturesque photo of these beautiful florals (you can swipe for those), but I’m quite enamored w. this shot … perhaps it’s that gentle reminder to slow down & take note of the in-between…
