Our bedroom is the least cohesive room in our house. I just can't ever decided what I want in there. I start one way and ALWAYS get off track. Most recently I was daydreaming about yellow and grey, but the grey has never really come into play since I'm on a thrift store budget and pretty grey has not shown it's face in my local shops. Navy on the other hand has.
So, at some point I decided to go with it, and navy and yellow have become my base colors in decorating our bedroom(even if yellow is playing a background role in this design). In my last few trips a splash of cherry red in my findings has brought it home for a cohesive look and despite the fact that our room desperately needs a new coat of paint I thought I'd share my lovely thrifty winter look.
Our awesome duck quilt found at salvation army for $3. It reminded me of Justin's room when we first started dating. The man had little ducks all over the place. This quilt is a bit hipper that the ducks of old thou. Thrown together with some pillow cases out of my vintage stash in yellow, blue, and red. Perfect, well Brobee and Murry seem to like it anyway.
Very cool velvet tapestry , brings some more red into the mix, also found at salvation army. This was a great find, for me anyway, because the glaring white wall behind our bed was driving me crazy and I needed something.
and to finish off my little mini make-over I sewed a red doily to the top of my lamp shade, for an added punch and to help dull the light, since we still co-sleep with the bear and we need a dull light for nigh-night time. my doily fix totally beats the piled up scarves I had been using trust me! a thrifty little bedroom make-over that only cost me around oh, 5 or 6 bucks, plus a little fishing in my stash of vintage brickerbrak!
I'm currently working on getting a tutorial on a woven felt catch-all basket together, So look for it to be up in the next few days. thank for reading!
