Help me finish my bedroom

10 years ago

I'd love ideas to help with soft furnishings, blinds/curtains, something for above the bed etc. I have my bedframe on order (see pic) and will use some bedside tables from ikea until (see pic) until I can afford the ones that match the bed.
Currently there are plain cream blinds, however I took them down for painting and just haven't had a chance to put them back up, but I would like something that will go with the room better.
In the corner near the white door you can see in the second photo, I will probably put an upholstered chair, such as you can get from Fama.es.
Any ideas would be great :)

Love your green accent wall! What about a piece of artwork for above your bed that incorporates the green and blue that you have in your bedding! As for your curtains you could do a nice white curtain or a brown shade!

I would paint the entire room green with the white bed and end tables and your comforter it will be great. An IKEA pendant over the bed and the to the floor fabric drapes, the fabric picking up the white, the green and the color of the rug. (I suggest painting the window trim white as well.

I would paint the room white and wall behind bed the same color pink that is in chair and then add prints above headboard and a large piece of art on wall on the right. Change pillows on chair and bed to modern and vibrant colors in grey/pink and yellow and add a coverlette to bottom. Purchase larger lamp for table on right and remove lamp from left side of bed and place a tray and some books on the ottoman. Move carpet to beside the bed. White roman blinds and painting the door white would be a good idea and just ask at paint store what needs to be done to prime, etc. Adding a fun chandelier is also an idea.

Thanks Annalise. There were brown horizontal venetians blinds as well that i have removed as they just blocked so much light (my room gets the morning sun). I like the curtains in the third pic though and I hadn't thought of smaller pieces of artwork above the bed, so I i will start looking.
iplay10s - I dont think I could go green for the entire room! It was a big step just to do the one wall :) I'll have a look for funky light fittings like you have posted. Are you also suggesting a rug on the floor as well? I don't think the window trim can be painted (or at least not easily) as it is a pVC window frame, it's not straight wood.

I think one green wall is fine with white furniture. Try white floor length drapes with big grommets on a white pole, and a big contemporary painting over the bed with touches of the green, but not too much of it. Large white lamps on the night stands would be nice. you could possibly find graphic shades in the green, or stay with white. I'd go for a white fluffy rug, too. I love the comforter.

Given the wooden window frames, consider roman shades or woven wood roll up shades. I would not add too much white since three of your walls, your baseboard and your crowne molding are already white, not to mention your bedframe (great bed by the way). Having said that, white night stands would be good, but suggest something other than white lamps, although white lamp shades would work.

You mentioned Ikea. They have some great fabrics, bedcovers and lamps/lampshades. Ikea also has various window treatments, including roman type shades. They also sell a sliding panel system that is awesome if you see a color that works. It comes in various colors and would really add some life to the room. The panels slide on a rail system, allowing you to close and open them as desired.

Agree it would be nice to pull the colors together with fabric that has both the green and the blue, either with the bedcover, pillows or window coverings. Also like the suggestion to try several small items over the bed (doesn't have to be pictures). The example picture shows three pictures of the same size. Two smaller items with one large in the middle also works well and might be a better fit with your square shaped bedframe. FYI, the lamps in the photo with the three pictures over the bed are really a bit small for that room. Notice in the picture of your bed, the lamps are much taller. Either tall lamps or lamps with a fairly large scale would be a good match to your bedframe. I would hold off on the ceiling light fixture until you have the bed in the room and have chosen your lamps, window treatments and other furniture. With all of these elements in the room, you will have an easier time chosing a ceiling fixture that matches the scale of the room and matches the style of your other furnishings. You have a great start going. Good luck with the finishing touches.
