    I would place it against a wall, not in a corner and would put it to the rihht of the window. i wouldn't want it in front of bed because you would constantly be looking at yourself when you are sitting up in the bed or getting up. I wouldnt like that personally

  • 6 years ago

    oh, I really like the color of the wall.

  • 6 years ago

    So place the mirror right next to where the curtain panel ends? What do you think about the color?

  • 6 years ago

    Those are some really cute mirrors. I found this at Homegoods last night for over the bed, but I an not to sure about since I do want to put a chandelier

  • 6 years ago

    I don't mind the color at all, I would put effort into other things... are you thinking of all neutral room or do you want any color? some art perhaps or some addition layers for bedding?

  • 6 years ago

    yes on next to curtain panel, IMO

  • 6 years ago

    can you lean the art against the wall on the top of your headboard just to see how it looks in position?

  • 6 years ago

    Im thinking of adding another like a darker shade in gray for like rugs maybe. Something like this:

    I am currently not home but will place the art against the bed once I am home. Sorry!

  • 6 years ago

    oh gosh, no worries, whenever u get a chance...

  • 6 years ago

    Ok sorry for the delay but here’s the pic

  • 6 years ago

    it seems like it blends into the wall. what do you think? great size.

  • 6 years ago

    So so. I feel like person it has a lot more white on the top and bottom edges than what it shows in the pic

    I love how silvery the art is (or seems to be on my screen). It accentuates the silver in the nightstands. If it were me, I'd get the chandelier and measure from the top or install it to see if the artwork will be visible or not.

    I don't know where the mirror should go, but I like the mirror :D

    The rug would further define the area and add more white and darker gray to the room---which is perfect! I also like how the rug and artwork would look together.

    You could go with white bedding and silver pillows on your bed.

  • 6 years ago

    Yes, the art has silver and hints of glitter. Its a beautiful piece! I am not too sure yet as to what kind of chandelier to do yet.
    I am having a hard time finding pretty silver pillows.

    Good decision on the wall color! And I like your lamps and lamp shades. Articles I’ve read consistently say the general guideline is to repeat the shape of the base which is exactly what you have done. I also think the print you chose is lovely with everything else you have.

  • 6 years ago

    Thank you! I really love it, looks so much better in person. Do you think if i change the drum shade to a circular or oval, it would look odd?

  • 6 years ago

    Thank you for the pillow posts! They are super cute. My concern is if I add a silver chandelier would that be too much silver?? Idk that’s why i was keeping it all white for bedding

  • 6 years ago

    IMO the bed needs more than white, silver, champaign patterns would look very pretty... textural like velvet would be very luxurious

  • 6 years ago

    I agree with you! I will keep looking for affordable silver pillows.

    Also, I found this rug which i really love and would like to add on the room. What size would you guys recommend. Bed measurements are width 67”, depth 106”

  • 6 years ago

    Or maybe this one too..pictures are different lighting posted by customers on the review section

  • 6 years ago

    Hi, your bedroom will look fantastic with any of those rugs, and I'd love to see the finished room!

    Take cellophane off lamps

  • 6 years ago

    Yikes! Not until you know if you are going to keep those lamp shades!

  • 6 years ago

    I will be posting pics of the finish product. I have a little to still work on. I purchased the he rug and placed it earlier this week. Pictures coming up soon

  • 6 years ago

    I found this curtains in a dark charcoal grey. I am considering changing the current whites one for this. What do you guys think??

  • 6 years ago

    This ones here

  • 6 years ago

    If they are returnable, try them.

  • 6 years ago

    I like them and agree to try them out and if they don't work, return them.

  • 6 years ago

    Ok i will do that and hopefully i can post a pic tonight to get feedback from you guys

  • 6 years ago

    can't wait to see them in the room

  • 6 years ago

    I wasnt able to find the curtains in the proper length. I’m going to try to look for them at a different Homegoods then I will post pic. However, i did change the drum shade shape. One pic has both to show difference and the other is with both round shades. What do you guys think?? Also, notice the rug I added. Thoughts on that too??

  • 6 years ago

    This are the white curtains I currently have.

  • 6 years ago

    well shoot about the curtains. I like the rug alot. I like the round shade better and do like the white curtain, but am interested in seeing the grey. looks like you are still working on art and pillows.... looking great.

  • 6 years ago

    I will continue to search for them and keep you guys updated. Im not too sure yet what to do with the art and nightstand decor. Any suggestions? I feel like it needs more color. Also, does anybody else think the shades could be a little bit bigger??

    The bed i plan to keep it crisp white unless I can find something silver within my budget.

  • 6 years ago

    Is the rug placement appropriate? Maybe more rug space for the footboard?

  • 6 years ago

    I think the rug placement looks pretty good, perhaps move it a bit toward the foot of the bed but kinda hard to tell. as for the lamp shade, I was originally thinking the round was small but then I looked at it some more and then thought because of the lamp base size it was OK. if anything maybe the lamps need to be a bit bigger.

  • 6 years ago

    as for art, I like the idea of more color but it seemed like you wanted to go very serene and neutral. how about something more textural and dimensional...something like this perhaps

  • 6 years ago

    Yes agreed. I think it should be moved a little more forward. Are you familiar with what the rule is for spacing from footboard? Im sort of stuck with these lamps so I am trying to make it work. I think about a 2” bigger shade would be fine.

  • 6 years ago

    Wall art I am think something simple because i do plan to hang a chandelier l, that way it doesn’t take too much attention away from the chandelier. This is what I have in mine, but silver toned

  • 6 years ago

    gorgeous chandelier. not sure there is a rule on placement of rug in relation footboard, to me its also about space between end of rug and wall. seems like there is extra room to move toward the wall in front of bed. textural art would look fabulous with the chandelier IMO.

  • 6 years ago

    oh, agree to try a bigger shade to see, but i still like a round style.

  • 6 years ago

    I like the round shade as well too but maybe just a tiny bit bigger. I will look around to see what i find for wall art. Thank you for all of your feedback!

  • 6 years ago

    just thought i would mention that a faux fur accent pillow in a cream white would look great on your bed, i know you mentioned you want to keep it crisp white, but a little pop of texture could work well with the new chandelier and not take the focus from the chandelier... this with the juju hat art above would look fabulous IMO.

  • 6 years ago

    a few other ideas for wall art...

  • 6 years ago

    I agree on the pillows. It does need more texture in the bed. For the art i loved the flowers. I was thinking what id i hang wall art on the sides of the nightstand and leave the headboard space above open to focus more on the chandelier in the center part. I found this flower sheets with potentially some black or white frames. What do you think??

  • 6 years ago

    I like the art too.

    Hi everyone! Sorry I’ve out of this post for a while due to holidays and pandemic. Happy new year to everyone!
    I am ready to finish this project, haven’t done much. Only removed the corner mirror, and I am not planning on bringing it back for now. I started my master bath decor as well. I am hoping maybe I can get some help in tying it together. I believe accessories and art work will be crucial. Any suggestions?
