Lamps

12 years ago
Do these lamps work in the bedroom? New nightstands (white) on the way and pics need adjustment in location.

    how much larger are the nightstands?
  • 12 years ago
    The nightstands will be at least a couple inches wider and deeper
  • 12 years ago
    They look pretty but can you post a more close-up pic?
  • 12 years ago
    White night stands is the right direction...width and depth are important, but most concerned with height...should be to somewhere around top of mattress for light to really work.

    I think it will look very nice once you get your new nightstands :)

    Combined height of nightstand and lamp sb between 58-64". Will that be the case?

    Why do you not move the bed to the right? It already looks jammed. With wider nightstand, it will not look good.

    Ditto to cdrdesign. Also suggest rehanging pictures horizontally aboveheadboard.

    Agree about moving more to right but there is a closet which limits us a bit
  • 12 years ago
    Yes, the lamps are great in your room. It looks like you have room to side the bed over at least 12 to 15 inches. Give it a try and show another picture, please. Also it would help to show the closet area in relation to the bed.

    Theresa, how much clearance do you need for the closet? Can we see a photo?
  • 12 years ago
    the drapery looks (overall) teal. chair green, then the linens are Delft. Lamps are good with the bedding, fine with the drapery.... but something needs to happen in or around the bed to tie the greens to that pale blue. can you do pillows to bring it all together??

    I would replace the small pictures over the bed with on large piece of art.

    There are too many little, busy patterns in the room:

    lamps, chair, drapes, even the bedspread.

    Colors do look off (but maybe my monitor). Wall looks yellow….could that be right?

    Agree with eighpondfarm. You are getting close. Bring in some more of the soft green with a single pillow, a throw over the bed. Even a houseplant sitting on the floor next to the bed.

    Liking this bird pillow, but you need something simpler:

    This little chart might help, but I'm more concerned about the two different heights for your drapery rods. Can that issue be remedied?
  • 12 years ago
    Maybe address that with some cornice boxes.

    Thanks everyone- the green chair is actually temporary- will be moved. This may help it look less cluttered. New baby on the way so needed to do some rearranging! I will post a pic with the closet for reference.

    Pcmom-actually have a pic of that room in my ideabook- love it!

    Yes, please supply more photos of room.

    Moving chair still will not address problem of end table encroaching on window.
    Actually, I like the chair there.

    Are drapes hung at different heights or is that the photo angle?

    Congratualtions!

    Really beautiful lamps, I love them. I think you should center the 4 pics on the wall though .

    Lovely lamps, and I like the variations in green and blue.
  • 12 years ago
    That chair looks like a comfy one for the nursery. But let hubby do all the furniture moving!
  • 12 years ago
    can you try removing the drapes and removing the rod (just to take a look at the room without the drapes) The busyness of the drapes is competing with the bedding...perhaps you can find a neutral drape that lets the bedding and accent chair take center stage. Also, can you move your bed and nightstand to the right about a foot? Then you can focus on moving the artwork.

    Just a thought, if you cannot move bed over, due to closet, I wonder if you would consider a headboard with lights and storage in it.

    As I mentioned above, situation will never look good with one nightstand in front of window.

    Also, have to say again, way too many little patterns going on.

    CRdesign makes a very good point about too many patterns.

    I like the pattern and color of the chair with the drapes. If they both stay in your room, I think a solid light olive bedding would look good on your bed.

    Or if chair and curtains reused in another room (nursery?), then a simple solid curtain with your current bedding.

    With your drapes I am thinking this sort of green on the bed. If you add a pillow with some blue I think you'll be close to done.
