My favourite bedrooms...eclectic & inspirational

I'm not making any progress on the renovations at home at the moment, so instead I'm dreaming of my future (finished) bedroom. I see so many decorating ideas every day sometimes it's hard to remember what my style really is. There are always a few spaces that stick me constantly though...the ones I can't stop thinking about.

This bedroom has been haunting me for weeks since I saw it. The white tongue & groove walls, the oversized abstract, the bold colourblocked bedding, the brass wall lamps. I love it all!

 I have loved this bedroom for a long, long time. The bold yellow bed against the silver grasscoth is divine. I love the nightstand, the unusual green and yellow colour scheme and the bold art choices.

This bedroom certainly did the blog rounds for a while and I can see why. I love the cheerful aqua walls, the floral headboard and lacquered red nightstands. That black and white bedding with the emerald throw pillow really speaks to me!

I have to admit this bedroom isn't my favourite but there is something about it that appeals. I particularly adore the glass lamps, floral headboard and mirrored nightstands.

 This is another favourite, although a little less bright than the others. The dark grey curtains against the crisp floral headboard is so gorgeous. The mix of patterns is also perfect; chevron, floral, geometrics.

Finally, I'm completely in love with this headboard. It really is stunning! I would happily take the white nightstands and brass x-benches as well. The other thing I love about this room? Notice the radiator in the corner - you don't even pay attention to it because you're so taken up with the headboard focal point. If you can't hide things, distract the eye from them!

Are any of these on your list of favourites? Are you haunted by interiors (or is that just crazy me?!)

  1. I like the first one best as it seems the freshest. Maybe that's a little like the look I'm after? I had been thinking of doing a strong wallpapered feature wall and then I realised the paper I'd like would cost me around $1000 but for that I could buy a piece of original art! Decisions, decisions :)

  4. No, I totally get it! I am haunted by beautiful rooms too, and you are so right, sometimes I forget what my style is too! The first bedroom is near perfect for me, the tufted headboard, the colour scheme, the beautiful brass lamps... so lovely!

  5. Yes! often haunted by interiors that I keep coming back to and probably have posted about them 2 or 3 times on my blog...must stop doing that LOL
    For me, its a colour combination of just a throw pillow with cutains that will just make me melt...the rest of the room fades into the background. I have a pic of an all white bedroom with 2 large pillows of a bold flower design on the bed and the whole image is just perfect in my eyes.

  6. I will be moving into my new room in just over a month and I have been frantically searching for bedding/accessories in peachy + coral tones! That first image gives me some great ideas- simply gorgeous!
