Please help needed for small small master bedroom
Comments (18)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...See MoreMaster bedroom is pink... Very pink
Comments (138)Two things I learned after living with the pepto bismol and "aquarium" bedrooms in my old house. Check under the carpet, you may have a great wood floor under there. You can paint a wood floor, grey is a great color to paint it, easy fix. My advice to you is RIP OUT THE CARPET NOW, while it is easy and you still can! I "worked around" a teal carpet in my master bedroom, and regretted it every single day. Carpet in one room isn't going to set you back that much. You deserve to have a master bedroom you love and that speaks to you, not an accommodation to someone else. Oh, and blue highlights pink, so you need lots of brown and yellow and tan and red to tone down the pink. Think of that carpet as very, very light red if you keep it. But don't keep it. Rip out the carpet. Just do it!...See MoreHow to make a navy blue bedroom more feminine
Comments (71)DkHaas--I REALLY like those blue ombre curtains! Much softer but same idea as the bold navy/white stripe. And of course, mdln, I am not going to go out and buy what I want without consulting her! I probably won't show her this whole thread, mostly because I can't buy/replicate every thing that is on it, but I will DEFINITELY show her some of the ideas/color combos that have been presented! She has already seen some of the ideas--some of which she said, "NO WAY" to and some she was more into. She's pretty head strong--she knows what she likes and dislikes. lol We are both putting this room together, but I am the one paying for it, and with that comes "some say" within reason. :) HavingFun, you are right--I would not have thought to look on Amazon unless I knew something specific I wanted. I am glad to hear you say that the quality is not bad--that is something I would have been worried about....See MoreHow do I make the front of my chalet more appealing?
Comments (17)I'm responding to your first picture. The low, sagging "ceiling" that is created by the bottom of the tree canopy makes the place look overall, neglected. It will look tidier if your create some clearance between the tree canopy and the face of the house. Also, If the structural appearance of the tree is important to you, you'd remove the left limb that starts out like an upraised elephant's trunk. It's headed toward being a major part of the canopy but looks substantially out of whack with the overall branching patter. (It should have been removed years ago and it's getting to the now-or-never state.) To achieve visual appeal of a house, it's necessary to have an inviting and secure path to the entrance. It should be obvious, easy to use and not confined ... all things that would appeal to a human. It should take the mystery of how to get into the house without getting dirty or bruised. Some simple, distinct landscaping would help, too. Groundcover around the base of the tree would look better than dirt and be easier to maintain than trying to grow grass....See Moregogetjill
