Pleasant Bedroom

NOTE: This is a post that mostly gals will find interesting.

When a room gets finished, it's a small victory. Our bedroom turned out to be a simple, pleasant space. The pale green of the bedspread goes with the kitchen cabinets and the leaves match those on our dishes. Doesn't everyone want to coordinate their dishes with their bedspread?The 4 sliding doors for the closets are mirrors, which adds to the light.

Once I saw this set, nothing else was appealing. The wood is lighter than the dresser but there is darkness in the woven part and the dark handles help the various pieces "blend". I usually think you should see the bed when you enter a bedroom. In this room, the bed would have filled the space between the windows and the night stands would have to be at an angle. So, Ed convinced me to try this and it does work rather well.
The previous owner also left this nice bookcase, which we use for our decorative pillows at night.



Ed never reads in bed so didn't want a light on his side. I really liked this little lamp for the dresser and it matches the night tables and headboard.

  1. I absolutely love the bedspread, the nightstand, and the lamp! You'll wind up with an eclectic mix of furnishings, which has become popular. I think the simple style (Shaker?) of your dresser goes with just about anything in a similar finish.
