I think the headboard and cherry nightstands work together, but not the bedding. Seems a bit overpowering

Return the bedding. It has cool undertones, while the nightstands have warm undertones. It clashes.

I would get glass night tables and some plain color textured pillows instead of matching ones in this space IMO drapes would be the answer insted of shutters you should be able to get a real bohemian feel with the bedding. The palest blue in the bedding for the walls and the drapes if you descide on those in faux silk

The spread and lamp look like they'd make for a fun teen girl's room, but it sounds like you have adult bedroom furniture.

i'm an adult and i like bohemian. i go with the light blue walls except i'm not sure how that would work with your beige headboard. the question is how much will show above the shams.

In the words of my late and wise father "Old ain't dead!"

Paint the walls off-white and then incorporate the colors of your bedspread in artwork.

The headboard and the bedspread don't really work together. Something more tailored with the tufted wingback headboard or change the headboard if you want to keep the spread. The plantation shutters are another problem with the bedding.

the idea that one's age and liking bohemian decorating would have anything to do with each other is Quite Remarkable to me.

If possible, paint/ distress nightstands - maybe you don't want a matched, perfect look?

I think so too. That's why I thought that the finish of nightstands could look more handmade with chalk paint - more informal looking.

Maybe if you went towards a berry instead of a blue purple.

Not sure you'd want raspberry at your windows, but a deal:

Have you thought about changing the finish of the nightstands, because in a medium [?] sized bedroom, you have large and dark-ish furniture....

What color are you having the walls painted? If it is just the molding White Dove by Benjamin Moore is a good idea.
