9 of the Prettiest Shabby Chic-Style Bedrooms on Houzz
Create the ultimate cozy retreat with a range of ideas for designing a casually elegant sleep space
The Shabby Chic look, popularized by Rachel Ashwell, is one of the most timeless and enduring styles, and it can be created in a number of different ways. Check out these inspiring ideas to turn your boudoir into a pretty haven that perfectly matches your style.
Include some decorative charm. The furniture and lighting in this gorgeous room create an ornate, vintage feel. To get the look, seek out modern versions of antique objects like the white chandelier and Venetian bedside table seen here. The bright blue accessories and flowers add a bold, more contemporary feel.
Be bold with black. Give your Shabby Chic look an edge by pairing pinks and yellows with black accents. This bedroom has plenty of pretty features, such as the ornate mirror and decorative pillows, but the black pendant light and other dark accessories add a fresh new element.
Brighten up with blues. The blue and green accessories look stunning in this white room. The owners have boldly introduced lots of the two colors, but it works beautifully. The collection of oil paintings and vintage elements give the space its Shabby Chic feel, but the unusual color palette provides a unique twist.
Bring in natural woods. This sleep space is calm and relaxing, and the owners have introduced a Shabby Chic vibe using just a few elements. Re-create the look by browsing thrift stores for a similar chest of drawers and add a simple embroidered pillow. The beauty of this room is its minimal color scheme, which forms a versatile backdrop and allows just a few key pieces to take center stage.
Create a cozy nook. In this dainty room, the bed has been built into an awkward alcove. Pretty curtains enclose the little den, while interesting pieces of artwork and accessories give the space character. The mismatched furniture has a cohesive look after being painted in the same cream shade.
Choose a restful scheme. Embrace rustic features in a Shabby Chic style by opting for a color scheme to match. The bare wooden elements of this bedroom are complemented by the neutral shades of the furniture and textiles. The pared-back palette allows the wood’s natural beauty to be the main feature.
Embrace the look for a kid’s room. Shabby Chic is a great style to use in a child’s bedroom. It’s a fabulous way to introduce pretty elements with vintage furniture, floral patterns, patchwork and pastel shades. You can also have fun with the theme, as seen here with the cleverly placed picture frame.
Hunt for flea market booty. The wonderful thing about the Shabby Chic look is how easy it is to create. By teaming some old wooden boxes and crates with a slightly worn cupboard and a metal-frame bed, this simple room was given lots of character. The quilts add a warm, cozy touch.
