The average person spends 229,961 hours sleeping! That’s one third of our lives! Since we spend so much time in our bedrooms, I think we should put extra thought into decorating them. Since I shared my master bedroom makeover a few weeks ago, I have gotten tons of people asking where I got my rug, blanket, pillows, lamps and more so I decided to share my master bedroom sources and tips plus other favorite finds to inspire you to spruce up the place where you spend so much time.
Bed – my black metal bed is from Restoration Hardware but it’s no longer for sale. I love this metal canopy bed as a much more affordable alternative. I also love this affordable metal bed in my guest room (no wonder it has over 8,000 five star reviews)!
Tassel Blanket – If I could marry this blanket, I would! It’s so thick and well-made and the huge tassels are such a fun touch. It comes in a bunch of sizes (I got the largest one for my king size bed) and lots of other colors and patterns too. Before I got this blanket, the bed was a giant sea of white but the blanket really adds so much personality.
Rug – this wool rug reminds me of a chunky knit sweater and it adds so much texture to the room.
Pillows – I layer two sleeping pillows in pillowcases that match my sheets, then two sleeping pillows in linen shams then add the large square pillows on top (3 on my king bed / 2 on a queen)! I like 24″ square Euro pillows (I LOVE the texture of these Moroccan pillow covers) and then a couple of colorful toss pillows in front of them. The pillows on my bed are from HomeGoods.
Lamps – I got these lamps a couple of years ago at West Elm and they are no longer for sale but I found some that I love if you want a similar look:
- Mid Century Lamp – the texture and glaze on this lamp is beautiful and I love the height.
- Ceramic and Wood Lamp – I love the mix of white ceramic with natural wood and the curvy shape of this beautiful lamp.
Accessories – I love live plants in every room of the house and snake plants are one of the easiest to care for. Pop one in a basket for more color or texture (I love the basket selection at World Market). Add in some fun pops of color with trays, vases and unique vintage finds.
Art – Choose pieces that make you happy. I blew up my girls silhouettes on canvas prints on Shutterfly and love seeing them first thing every morning. The oversized piece of art over the nightstand is from HomeGoods.
Furniture – I really love the wood grain on the pair of chests used as nightstands and dresser. The side table and bergere chair that I’ve had since I got married many moons ago makes for a cozy reading nook. A colorful throw and pillow gives a fresh look to this classic shape.
Here’s to spending one third of our lives surrounded by things we love.
I love this bed! It is beautiful!
You have inspired me to rethink my bedroom. I’ve decluttered my night table and added some feminine touches. Thank you for sharing your home and great ideas with us!
