Your bedroom....your sanctuary, your dwelling place. It is always the last room that you seem to always focus on. Why is that? I feel that it is a reflection of neglect that you are projecting onto your poor little bedroom! It should be the first place to start! Afterall, you need to take care of you and you starts in the sanctity of you're own personal private space.
Let's start at the very beginning (a very good place to start ....I couldn't resist!) What kind of duvet do you have for the summer? If it has some crazy pattern on it or you are still using what's called a "comforter" from college....PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD....TOSS IT and get yourself a down alternative comforter or eco-friendly one.
Next comes the duvet cover . If you don't know how to pick out a duvet cover, Let's just start with plain white! You can buy them online anywhere from West Elm to IKEA. White is the perfect base to build your new bedroom wardrobe upon. If white is not your fancy then anything neutral will do! Next, I like to add a bedskirt in a natural linen color or plain white. If this is getting a little to plain for you, PILLOWS are what's next!
Pillows, Don't even get me started on pillows! I adore pillows and can guess that is why I have a line of pillows myself! Rules of pillows go as follows:
1. Pillows must be at least 22x22 large on bed and filled with eco-friendly down or a down alternative. You must have a total of at least 3 decorative pillows on your bed PLUS 3 EURO sham pillows in the back. On a queen or full bed, 2 Euro sham pillows in the back and 3 decorative pillows in the front. Like maybe 2 of these from redefinehomestore.com
then add 1 more of these:
in the middle of them!
You will find that you can now facebook your friends on your new dwelling blissful space!
Oh Happy Day!
