The patterns are similar but the rugs pattern is a larger scale so I think it can work. I would suggest to get a new bedskirt and window valance - not sure if the lace is the right thing in here. Were you experimenting with the skirt? I see a fabric sample there (grey and white lattice). If they make that as a bedskirt, that would be nice and tie in your pillow. Or you could get a solid that is like the darker color in your rug. Since you have a few patterns going, I would try to find a valance that would match the new bedskirt. Sorry no pics.

I agree the valance should go,maybe a shade would look better,one that has the grey,also a dark grey bed skirt would stand out,and you need a print for the bare wall,also a bigger lamp for the side table,maybe one with a linen shade

Kathy. Love the rug! I would definitely go with either a plain bed cover or stripe. I do think the patterns clash as they are too similar. I would keep the bed skirt plain as well. Bring some pattern to the bedding with your throw pillows. Also, not crazy about the grey with the tans. Good luck.

I was experimenting with the skirt. The fabric sample is the bedskirt and I will be using that in place of the lace skirt. What about a plain blue valance?

If you use that patterned bedskirt (shown in sample) pick a valance that is the darker tan from the rug. Since your walls are kind of a bluish hue I would not pick blue for the valance. I would want to bring some of the neutral color up on the window. Not the best pic but something like this (no ruffles)

I wouldn't mix the two florals. I suggest changing one of them to a stripe.

I guess the picture isn't the greatest. But the walls are blue (Sherwin Williams Balmy) and so is the bedding. Thank you

Deep brown, bold black, a touch of red.

Hi! Here are a few bedding suggestions:

Hope this helps!

Can you take more pics of the room? Is there one bed or two in this room?

i'll try. there's one bed

Is there room to center the bed on the window?

And can we see the bedding with the red in it?

There isn't much room to center the bed. There is a dresser along the right hand wall which you can't see in the pic. I have no red bedding??

It looks like you have something with red floral under the comforter and something in the chair...how big is this room? Reason for more pics...maybe a better way to arrange...

Oh. The red floral is the old bedding I'm replacing. Room is about 12 x 10

The room lacks color! Use pillows & valance to bring in color such as the blue throw you have on the rocking chair but use a contrast such as orange or yellow to brighten it up.

Having a bed next to a wall make it difficult to change sheets etc...I would look at trying to rearrange so you have space on each side of bed...not seeing every wall makes it difficult.

I think the two choices don't work together as well as they might , but do you prefer one over the other? I see some silver in the bedspread, and think, if you keep it,that a silvery taupe carpet would set it off nicely - silk rugs can give the same effect with sheen. ( something like photo #1)
If you prefer the area rug here, you might look for something less ornate in your bedding - detailing that is more tailored would stand up well to the stronger lines in your rug. I've included a few examples:

I like the striped bedding in your photo #4. What brand is it and where can I buy?

Google didn't mention a brand, but if you use "blue tan bedspread' as a search term on your favourite sites, you should find something suitable.

How about if I change the area rug to a plain rug like what it as the end of the bed?

That would look nicer with your bedding.
