I have a confession to make.
While it may appear as if I have everything pulled together, I do not. Our bedroom is the very definition of not having everything pulled together. We sleep on a platform bed that was built by my roommate five years ago. Most of it is plywood. Yes, I said plywood. I HAVE PLYWOOD FURNITURE. Granted, it is trimmed in “real” wood, but I still know it’s dirty cheating plywood heart.
We’ve been married two years. There is NO excuse for this! It is time for a complete bedroom vamp, Bekah style.
Here are my must haves for the bedroom:
- Two nightstands
- Two lamps
- A mirror
- A comfortable bed, preferably framed in wood and platform.
- Bright colors
- Easy washable linens.
- A small bookcase of some sort
First up, a few bedrooms to narrow my style…

I love the simple girly feel. It’s a little TOO girly for my husband. Love the mirror/frame combo, old shutters and simple flowers. Don’t love the monochromatic feel. Perhaps this would be better suited for a single gal?

Love the vintage modern feel with bright colors, but not the metal bed frame, rug, or delicate side table. I like sturdy furniture.

I love the ladder and the blue walls, but not the “woodsy” feel of the rest. I do love that it looks lived in and comfortable, but put together at the same time. Absolutely LOVE the birdcage. Come to mama!

Ok, probably not what I would typically love, but I just went to a party where the sofa was hanging from the ceiling like this and I fell in love. How awesome would it be to have a hanging bed? Maybe without the little nasty ropes at the bottom. For some reason this bedroom reminds me of Rachel. Maybe the liberal use of oranges and palm leaves in a vase?

Can I get a “what what”? This is perfection!! I love love love everything about it. I love the seamless integration with the outdoors, the natural light, the proper mix of natural materials. The simple potted palm tree. The books. I seriously adore this look! I think I’ve found a winner. The only change I would make is using more brights, less muted orange.
Come back on Monday for more….
