Also to see if I was the last person on earth to figure this little trick out and basically to find out if anyone really cared.
I started with the grey and white rug and then chose these.grey and white Tara Ikat pillows.
to go with it, also from Birch Lane.Color pallet set!After that, I just pulled a few more extra pillows into this room that were floating around the living room, stuck them in a basket and on a side chair and things were looking pretty great.
I used a little bit of scrap fabric that I had leftover from other projects on the wreath and on the table and that’s all it took!For me, creating the calm and soothing room that I wanted was more about all the distracting and jarring colors that I was leaving out, rather than what I was needing to worry about bringing in.
Books don’t count!
I always love a whole bunch of different books on a bookshelf, no matter what the room!.You know, the ones with the slats.
I also really love the look of bed skirts and the two just don’t seem to mix.I’ve tried, but it always ends up being kind of a big mess and not looking quite right..
This is the bed in question.You can kind of see the sad and saggy cream colored bed skirt in this picture, although I tried to keep it out.. Now, one route is of course to make your own and figure it out that way, but I found a store-bought skirt that I loved and I was determined to make it work!
