a place to Dream

Do you ever find yourself drifting off into dreamy land while catching up on your favorite home blogs, flipping thru home design catalogs or perusing online store websites?  Picturing what your current casa COULD look like or what you might want to do to the potential next place you call home?

Many say that the most important place in your home should be your bedroom…the place that you should find the most comforting…the most at home…its the room that you should want to spend the most time in {at least the most quality time}!  I know for some when it comes to decorating your home the bedroom might be the room that gets the least attention?!?!  It is after all one of the rooms that most guests don’t ever see…its a great place to quickly stash things before company is coming over {i promise that doesn’t come from personal experience or anything ~?!/}  So with all the time we spend day-dreaming while we look at all the inspiration out there…its high time we apply some of that inspiration to the place we rest our heads.

Those who know me best know that I will NEVER be a matchy matchy kind of girl…its just not my style.  I love changing it up, combining different patterns and textures, throwing together unexpected color combos.  No bed in a bag for this girl {not that there is anything wrong with a bed in a bag…you just won’t be finding them in my casa}  So after flipping through some of my favorites for fabulous interior goodies…i put together a few “bedding combos” for you to enjoy.  What’s your flavor of the moment…what do you want to see when you wake up  in the morning?  Is it:

Bold & Graphic

A Bright but Cool palette

a Modern Organic

A lovely mix of Textures

So…grab yourself some inspiration…wether you get it from surfing the internet, poking around at your favorite home store, or even just flipping thru some random magazines.  Don’t be afraid to change it up…but most importantly make sure its something you love!!  {you are the one that has to go to sleep and wake up in it after all!!}

Sweet Dreams!

  1. LOVE the third bedding set. This is so true. Our bedroom gets the least attention and it is not so “welcoming”. I need to change that!

  2. I am for sure a Bed in a Bag kind of girl, but that is only because I can’t make up my mind and be confident that what I pick ACTUALLY works. I wish I had a Jillian in my purse to come with me shopping…ALL….THE…TIME!! However, I think you would be proud of me today. I picked a fabric out at JoAnns that is a little out of my comfort zone of matchy matchy. I’m covering insulation foam board with fabric to block the cold air flooding into our living room from our fire place (that we never ever use) Figure we block the cold air and make it look pretty at the same time. I sure hope it works, and I think you’ll like the fabric!
