Guest Picks: Give Your Bedroom Earthiness and Warmth
Rich, natural textiles, prints and more make for an eclectic bedroom that's both interesting and comforting
I am always amazed by how many folks make their bedroom the last priority when decorating. Let's change that, shall we? I thought an earthy, rich and serene bedroom would be just the ticket — something warm and lovely to come home to after a long day at the beach or after a vacation. Hope you like it! — Melissa from Melissa Loves
Bauhaus Stripe Duvet Cover
I love this cheerful print! It is warm and happy without being overwhelming.
Lovely Curio Shelf
This is such a sweet little shelf. I kind of love it without anything in it, but pretty pieces, all in white, would look beautiful gracing the shelves as well.
Blandford Birdies, Winter
This print was intended for a kids room, but I love it for any space. The strong colors are still soothing, and love birds are good for a bedroom.
Andres Headboard, Dark Brown, Queen
I love natural elements in a room, and the texture and material of this headboard are so pretty and would help keep the room grounded.
Modern Clip Lamp, Gold
This is the prettiest clamp lamp I have ever seen! It's also meant for the kiddos, but who cares? Again, I love it for any space.
Maginel Screen
I like the idea of dividing up a room with a little relaxing/reading nook, someplace other than the bed. Sometimes you just want a different view, right? This pretty and sculptural screen is a lovely addition.
Tayrona Hammock
And on the other side of the screen, you could have this pretty and reasonably priced hammock instead of the traditional comfy chair. I love hammocks indoors.
Dotted Paper Vase
This vase would be so lovely on the nightstand or dresser, with or without flowers.
Turned Glass Finials
This is the perfect curtain rod! I love the clear glass; it's a subtle but beautiful detail.
Chino Canyon Curtain
I have to admit that these curtains went straight to the top of my wishlist when I saw them. Tassels? Love them. I'm always a fan of subtle design with lots of character.
Sparkler Pillow, Turquoise
This is another great textural piece for the bed (or the hammock). The sequins are a bonus!
Large Senegalese Lidded Basket/Hamper, Yellow
These baskets are so pretty; they never get old. You could use it as a super nice laundry basket, as extra storage or just for decoration.
Ruffled Shams, Washed Oatmeal Linen by Cottage and Cabin Interiors
I am thinking about getting these beauties to replace the cushions on my couch. They would also be perfect for making a bed comfy and cozy, no?
Glasshouse Pillow, Square
I love the sparkle on this pillow and think it would be so pretty with the ruffled Euro shams.
Stuffed Paperwhite Plant by Sian
These sweet and soft sculpture plants by Sian Keegan are the perfect solution for those of you (myself included) that have trouble keeping plants alive. There are several cute designs to choose from.
Vintage Wicker and Wood Cabinet by Hindsvik
I love this cabinet as a different choice for a nightstand. Though if it turns out to be a bit high for your bed, it could also be a wonderful extra storage piece for the bedroom.
Target Home Medallion Rug, Cream
I love this rug. The pattern, the color combination and the size are all perfect.
Exotic Moth, Large Archival Print by United Thread
United Thread is one of my favorite artists on Etsy. There are so many beautiful prints to choose from, but I love the color combination in this one.
On the Rocks Tabletop Sculptures by Studio Liscious
Sweet and faceted, these little wooden "rocks" would be so pretty on a nightstand.
Chunky Tassel Throw
Last but not least, you need a cozy blanket to snuggle up under. I love the fringed edges that echo the tassels on the curtains.
