The Bedding chapter 2
3/24/2011 07:11:00 AM
I slept like a baby last night, thanks to the new coordinated fun bedding.
Well, not really, it's just that I'm dead tired with all these house projects! But it's a great plus to lay your head on something pretty. :)
You don't have to spend tons for some nice bedding, one option is to buy your own fabric and just have it sewn. I guess I got lucky for having one great sewer under our roof!
Here's the color and pattern combination for set #1...
The key for mixing different patterns is by having one big bold pattern, and having another one in a smaller scale. By doing so, the print won't clash, and just compliment each other nicely.
I chose a white bedspread to provide balance with all the colors going on.
I love how all the bright colors look against the dark "wall" (get use to it, I'll always refer to this curtain as a wall with quotation! haha). I can't wait to finish the artwork above the bed, if only I can choose which one I will make! Check out the options here.
Since the lamps are placed higher compared to a regular nightstand, the pole is visible on eye level. I'm hoping to buy a bigger shade to update the look.
Here's the new fresh lookin' bed with the creamy grey "nightstands."
See? We can always have a pretty space regardless of budget! Though what you've seen is mostly just the bed, I'm envisioning this to be one heck of a pretty room very soon! ;)
