Styling dressers/end tables and picking a bed and bedspread

8 years ago

Hi - so this is the decor I’m working with! I would love suggestions on how to style things, arrange items, work in new items, etc. especially on the dressers and end tables. I have lots of books and plants but I want to keep those. I could also use help on a bed frame and bed spread!

    I think it would help if you might post some inspiration pix or indicate what you are looking for. What you have is very nice and very adaptable. I think if you give more info the more savvy on this forum will be able to help.

    I am guessing color for bedding. Your pics are not clear to me. Here is some inspiration:

    Martex Reverie Comforter Set, Teal, Full/Queen · More Info

    True North Peyton Reversible Plush Comforter Mini Set · More Info

    Full/Queen Size 5-Piece Damask Comforter Set, Light Blue White and Gray · More Info

    Well, I'm seeing 3 different styles in what you like. The first images have a boho kind of feel. The next image is very calm, serene, and monotone. The last image feels tropical with the green and coral.

    I think the first thing you need to do is settle on your favorite look of the 3 and tell us what you like about each one and we can go from there.

    Hmmm. Can you try putting your bed on the wall to it’s left? I’m seeing a big piece of colorful art over the headboard and more splashes of color in accessories!

    So the door to the room is where the panoramic pics are taken from so if I move my bed to that side then when you walk in the bed is right to your left. Do you think I should do that? I like the idea of a big piece of art over the bed! I still can’t find a bed frame I love though. As far as the photos go, I think I like the Scandinavian 70s mid century thing. I like the mix of trinkets in the first and how they all come together to create a space that feels warm and lived in and just has interest when you look around. I like the warm colors of the pink and vintage-y green because it feels kind of old school 70s

    Like I like the white because it feels clean and not intruding but I also love the tan leather because it’s warm and adds some depth and goes with the plants and the boho thing

    Like I absolutely looooove the first pic below (and the one of the tan chair with arc lamp) and these other photos

    Yes I would try putting he bed there and reposting a photo! I say that because the nightstands looked squished now. If you do a big piece of art over bed, I would do a plain platform bed and maybe wall-mounted sconces? Otherwise here are a couple other headboard options you might like... I think you need some wood tones!

    The foot of your bed should be facing your entry door. You don't want your back to the door when you're sleeping-it make for a more restless sleep.

    Your nightstands have a Chinese Chippendale-midcentury look to them. They're similar in style to Henry Link furniture. They would be perfect painted in a high gloss in one of the brighter colors to which you're attracted.

    You can definitely create the look you like for your room. You need a color palette for a jumping off point and then you can go from there.

    Do you have a budget in mind?
