The upholstery on this chair is to die for.  A statement piece with function.

Origami shade

Nothing short of unique, this pendant shade is quirky, cool and modern. This would look great in a kids room or even a funky kitchen.

Bedroom Design Gossip Girl Style… xoxo

Last week I came down with a little bit of a bug and decided to stay home from work one day.  In addition to sparing my co-workers my germs, it was the perfect excuse to catch up on 14 (yes 14) episodes of Gossip Girl.

As I was watched, I fell more and more in love with Serena’s bedroom at Blair’s house (no worries if you have no idea who I’m talking about).  Here’s what I mean…

Love, right?!?

So how can you re-create this sophisticated yet whimsical space? So glad you asked 🙂

This bed from Serena & Lily has a similar shape and pattern.  I actually prefer the scalloped edges of this design since it adds a bit more interest.

I heart this bench.  It’s a bit different from the upholstered bench in our inspiration, but this is just so fabulous, and you can find it at Ballard Designs.

Nothing says elegance like grasscloth wall covering.  This particular one is a faux grasscloth, and a bargain from Lowes.  In our inspiration bedroom, grasscloth is only on the accent wall behind the headboard.  Personally, I’d love to see it on all the walls

 

The wow “piece” in our inspiration bedroom is definitely the abstract pattern created by the butterfly decor above the headboard.  Here are two options (white butterflies & black flowers) both available on Amazon.

      

This floor lamp and wall sconce are simple yet elegant and look very similar to those in our inspiration room. These can be found at Circa Lighting and Restoration Hardware, respectively.

Last but not least, we have the seating.  I’ve chosen a teal velvet fabric (shown in the swatch) that has a more modern appeal in comparison to the silk green in our inspiration. You can find this chair at Home Decorators Collection.

So, what do you think?  Is there an inspiration bedroom that you’re looking to recreate?  Until next time… xoxo

Treasure Hunting

Today my sister and I decided to hit the Rose Bowl Flea Market.  It was the first time for both of us… so fun and so overwhelming.

My sister has discovered an obsession with turquoise, so she tried out this chair…

…but no purchase

I’m looking to re-upholster my dining room chairs so we stopped at a fabric booth…

…but no purchase

Finally, we found a piece that inspired us… a vintage electric guitar case

We’re thinking of turning it into a coffee table, but the possibilities are endless.  You’ll have to check back often to see what we make of our treasure 🙂
