I was really glad to see the upholstered bed in the second bed option, cause as I was looking at the room pics & sketch, that what I had in mind IMMEDIATELY. I LOVE that room (LOVE small spaces) & here's my suggestions: 1. Upholstered bed in natural linen. 2. Closet wall & crown moulding in SW Westhighland White. Walls & ceiling in Canvas Tan (flat) 3. Bedding in a soft color...no pattern. Pattern will only make the room smaller. 4. An upholstered bench at the end of the bed in the same linen as the bed with perhaps contrast welt in the color of the bedding. Ebony legs. (Check out Bassett Furniture for both the bed & the bench as an alternative to where you're looking) 5. Ditch the globe pic. Whatever goes over the bed needs to be a simple stretched canvas in soft colors, or sepia tones. 6. I vote for simple bamboo or burlap roman shades inset on the windows. 7. Think more about texture than color & pattern in this room. 8. Consider these for over the nightstands to save all table space. (Nightstands should be light in feeling but of course functional). ~Jeana Here is a link that might be useful: Nightstand lights

Center bed and night stands with the wall, get drapes from wall to wall and you are set.

I'm confused. are you planning on selling soon or living here for a while? if you're leaving soon and think this is a teardown, why even bother having anything done to it? (just need a little clarification is all.) if having a smaller bedroom means you get a necessary extra bathroom, I say go for it! I've lived in three homes with my husband, and every single one of them had tiny bedrooms. they're really cozy, and they seem to stay a little warmer at night after we turn the heat down. then we can use the larger spaces for offices, workrooms, etc. as for small closets: I always used the office closet for my clothes. this system has worked well for us for many years.

Great ideas! Here’s what our bedroom looked like before. We have our dressers (which I know are way too big for the room) within the room which is why I was thinking more overhead lighting would be ideal (that fan gives off minimal lighting when the cover is installed. Whatever overhead lighting we do put in will have a dimmer switch. I live in Alaska where it stays pretty dark most winter, so I do like having lots of different lighting options. Also, husband loves overhead fans. And I doubt I can convince him to take down the one he just put up.
