Exactly, although I really appreciate your critique of my bedroom space. DH would not allow me to switch chest of drawers. That's his "side" of the room, bed, bench, lol. Y'all don't know what it took to talk him into curtains! Although, he has been pretty good throughout this decorating process. I did previously try to put the basket under the side table, but it is too tall with the pillows and would be a pain to get under to retrieve them. As for the air return, I cannot block it with anything that large and solid. You should have seen the dust on the solid painted screen. The heating and air guys were not thrilled with that, either. One of these days, I'll see the perfect console table to put there, but in the meantime, that's what I feel comfortable with and it's staying. I can't believe y'all have not seen these decorative screens as just that...decorative! Must be a southern thing. Anyhow, all I wanted to do is show you my newly revamped space because it is such a big improvement over what it was. Thank you for the kind words, tryingtodecorate. The color is Decatur Buff in the bedroom, and my fireplace wall is as well. I have considered painting that entire wall like the trim color, a paneled look like my previous home (seen below) and may do so when we replace the fireplace box (another story.) yayagal - We may sell, so come on!

Your money, but I guess I donÂt see spending that kind of money for something that is just about a look, if you are suggesting that it wonÂt really be used. Remember, your room is YOUR design - be inspired by the pix you posted, but donÂt feel bound by it. I would rather see you spend money on a pair of great euroshams and a decorative pillow, or a chair for the corner. If all that you want is a folded comforter on the end of the bed, you should be able to find one for a much more reasonable price. As for what to put in it, I think you need to be careful - stuffing it with a duvet and folding it might end up with a big ivory lump at the end of the bed. And considering the look you want, I would not do a full/queen, I think it will be too big. I believe you said that your mom sewed the curtains (nice job!) so why not buy two twin sheets in a pretty shadow stripe, have her sew on two bands of trim; one blue, one brown, perhaps, using pre-made trim, or even a single wider band of the leftover fabric from the drapery - now that would be a custom look! Do that on the sheet that will be the top of the duvet cover, then sew them together to make the cover. Add some pretty mother of pearl buttons for the closure. Stuff with a cheap white twin comforter (not too fluffy) and call it a day? If she could use another matching sheet to make a couple of euro shams and add a button in the center of each covered in the drapery fabric, youÂd be good to go! As for matching the coverlet on the bed, you donÂt really want to do that - it isnÂt that way in your inspiration pix, and having some shades of color ties everything together and gives the room depth.

Out of all of them, I like the 1st or 3rd that I posted. IMO, a fully upholstered bed looks more finished than just a headboard. I think the 1st nicely mimics the curves in the nightstands and dresser and feels a bit more traditional, as does the furniture. Do you know how tall the nightstands are? They should come within an inch or two of the height of the mattress.

What is your budget? I haven't purchased drapes lately but Country Curtains used to be my go-to. They have been bought out by Vermont Country Store and I don't know if they have the same quality. They will send fabric samples. https://www.vermontcountrystore.com/curtains/category/curtains
