Why This Room Caught My Eye


After all my travels I love to come back home. Especially to come back to my own bed. Don't get me wrong - I do get to sleep in very, very comfy beds in great hotels and homes, but there's always something that's not quite as at home, right? Well, with this in mind I am sharing a lovely bedroom inspiration with you today. And as usual on Tuesday, I want to show you why this room caught my eye:
  • Statement Art Piece: Do you have a statement art piece above your bed? I do have one but on the wall to the side as my bed is perched under a roof pitch thus not ideal for hanging art. But if I had a regular wall behind my bed I'd go for a statement art piece like in this example. It draws the eye's attention instantly and it is a great starting point for stylings in the room as you can draw inspiration, colors and themes from the art piece.
  • Matching Cushions: One pair of matching cushions with a print can be excellent to balance the bedroom styling. In this case, two throw cushions with a bold circle print do the trick - they mirror a color hue from the above hanging art piece and create a balanced look. Plus the mustard yellow pompom borders perfectly tie the image together with the bedthrow's color.
  • Knitted Bedthrow: I love chunky knit throws - they not only create a comfy feeling but also add great texture to a bed or sofa. This mustard yellow hued throw is fabulously placed in the lower third of the bed and fulfills the styling by tying everything together color-wise: the art piece, the cushions and the bedthrow. Visual pleasure!
Is this bedroom styling catching your eye too?

    1. Definitely a happy room, right Tim? I sort of feel inspired to redo my own bed now. Here's a weekend challenge I'd say:-)
