Bedroom Makeover

Since we have moved into our new apartment, the living room has been my main focus, design-wise. I have now reached a point where it is looking great and I am almost done worrying about it (pictures to come). With all my attention focused on the living room, our bedroom has taken a back seat and it shows! I quickly got tired of the pattern of our old duvet cover, and decided that I wanted white bedding. The white is beautiful but boring right now. I am such a pattern and color addict that the solid bedding, curtains, and walls are really not doing it for me. My mom and I went shopping yesterday and I found the perfect fabric to totally revitalize the dull bedroom, thank goodness! I really believe that fabric is THE very best starting point, especially one with a great print. If you can find a fabric you love, then you can start to pull colors out of the main fabric to use as accent fabric, paint colors, and to give you ideas for artwork. I am SO excited to get the fabric in that I chose for my headboard. My mom and I will be making the headboard ourselves, which is something I have always wanted to try. Stay posted for updates on how the room is coming along!
