Midcentury modern guest bedroom - how can I decorate?
I'm looking to decorate a house in midcentury modern style and I'm starting with this room. Any suggestions?
I know I need a rug, I'm just not sure which type, and I'd like at least one (maybe two) side tables, and somewhere for guests to store clothes (there is a closet on the left-hand side of the photo).
I'm also buying Target Performance Threshold sheets today and curious which color would go best with the rest of the room: here are the solids and patterns.

The mirror on the left wall came when I bought the house, the bed is a Zinus Tuscan Metal and Wood.

Help decorate our guest bedroom! pics
Comments (22)we have not attached it yet--- we need to look at the bed frame to see if its able to attach -otherwise we will get the appropriate frame- DH does not want to attach to wall-- its pretty sturdy even though its not attached.... HTN-- i hear you about transitional-- i kind of felt like i was liking that style but yes the rest of our house is traditional-- i'm keeping the headboard- so i'll see what else i come up with... I also think the bed needs an ivory throw blanket and a nice bench (thats lighter by the foot of the bed)... to be continued...See MoreDoes this shag rug fit my mid-century modern bedroom?
Comments (10)Doing a white shag rug and white sheets isn't mcm. hopefully you've got other decor items in mind? However, the rug would work (although I'd like a flat weave black and white one better) and I would turn it the other way, and pull it down from the top just a bit. please get some sheets that fit! lol these striped ones would look nice w/a white comforter here are some examples. play around w/some of the decor items in these pictures. notice how the bed is made and what is on the bed. pick one and copy it. I like the rug in this pic, below, the danish style chair, and the dresser. you could also get a gentleman's chest like this and paint the lower half black...See MoreHelp me decorate my attempt at a mountain modern bedroom!
Comments (12)We love mountain modern homes, especially bedrooms. The white duvet is perfect with the dark walls and Pendleton blanket; adding lighting pieces through bedding and artwork will help brighten the space and provide contrast for the walls. As far as art for the room goes, you can keep it neutral to let the blanket shine or add more dimension and color to balance the blanket. In this room, we added art that was more colorful than the rest of the room, but because it stands alone, it shines: A more subtle and modern option: You can also add visually interesting light fixtures, especially any that will pop against the darker paint of your room: The colors and textures you have here are already a beautiful starting point. Good luck adding those finishing touches!...See MoreLighting and window treatment solutions for Mid-Century Modern bedroom
Comments (15)If you want affordable, repair what's there, and add a few more supports, I dislike cable for this reason, it sags. When you say, broken, what's wrong with it? The other option that won't be as cheap is Tech lighting rail kit, much cleaner than track and runs much the same as the cable. Your cable light might be as simple as replacing the transformer or a stand of cable. please explain to me what is wrong with it? as it is a very good solution for your space....See More

Like the bench which would be convenient for a suitcase or duffel bag. Also like the comfortable

Check Percale sheet set when you are in Target. I got gray percale sheets and dusty blush pillow cases to achieve this look.
Love them.- PROLiam R thanked Celery. Visualization, Rendering images

5 years agoWhich type of shag do you all like for a white rug?
Option 1: https://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/rugs-usa-simply-soft-solid-shag/White/200HJFL01A-P.html
Option 2: https://www.rugsusa.com/rugsusa/rugs/rugs-usa-shaggy/White/200SHG1-P.html
I love the softness of Option 1 but I worry it's too "glam" for the room. What do you think?
