Guest Picks: A Room of Your Own
— Rita from Fighting Off Frumpy
This is the coolest thing ever! I love that this art is alive. Nothing brings life and freshness to a space like a plant, and this is just an awesome way to display it.
This hutch is not only an awesome storage space (that would look great with its top lined with plants or other decor), but also the perfect complement to the corner desk.
There's just something neat and cozy about a corner desk. And it would be absolutely gorgeous with that arched hutch.
A desk needs a chair, and this one couldn't be more perfect!
First of all, this is called the Comfort Sofa, making it a winner in my book. It looks so soft and inviting, and its basic style makes it easy to customize to a special look.
Even a comfy couch is better with some nice cushy pillows. The stripes are a nice contrast to the floral patterns in the rest of the room.
This would look great thrown casually over the back of the sofa or displayed on a wall hanger. I love its beautiful, feminine feel.
This print embodies everything I love about the theme of this room: the organic and outdoorsy feel, the tranquil garden atmosphere. The peonies match the ones on the quilt.
What's even better than a plant? One that doesn't require anything. That's right, this is an air plant, which means it needs little to no care. And it has found a perfect home in this distressed birdcage.
I love plants, especially plants that are in cool shapes. In a garden-themed room, there's no better way to bring the outdoors in.
A pretty switchplate like this adds an extra-special something, like jewelry for the room.
What a sweet and simple way to display a little bouquet!
Part of my dream "escape" room is a fireplace to curl up in front of with a good book and a cup of tea. I love the look of stone with the garden theme: it's down to earth and not too ornate.
I love the clean contrast of the stripes. This drop-leaf table is the perfect place for my tea and magazines.
This gorgeous mirror looks more like a window. And like a real window, it would make any room look more spacious and open.
This sage green area rug is simple and soft. Yes, it's from Pottery Barn Kids, but I think it's great for a grown-up room too.
I envision this filled with books, but this cupboard is awesome storage space for just about anything. As a bonus, the doors can be closed, so you don't have to worry about how messy the contents look.
Typically wreaths make me think of Christmas and winter, but this one is fresh, bright and lively.
This lantern lamp brings the garden indoors. It looks like it would impart a nice warm glow.Next:Indoor Gardens: Duplicate Nature Inside
This chalkboard is a great alternative to me leaving Post-It notes all over every bare surface.
