Right now, we are minus a bed (boxspring/mattress on the floor is charming, btw), and I'm quickly tiring of looking for the most awesome bed. We just need to get one bought. Like. Now.
Not wanting to make a rash decision, I put together a few design schemes to help persuade my purchase....
I'm fairly set on deep navy walls, and we already own the bedside tables and lamps. We need more clothing storage, a rug, and I'd like some mirrors to place behind the nightstands.
Here ya go...
Room 1: Soothing palette using some lilac floral fabric I already purchased for some kind of canopy, pale gray bed, moroccan shag rug, and a midcentury-esque chest of drawers.
Room 2: The wall mural from Anthro is a game-changer (thank you, Linda for the heads-up). In this scheme, paired with a navy velvet, clean wingback bed, french gilt mirrors, and a nubby jute rug.
Room 3: More or less the same scheme, warmed up with a chocolate velvet bed, layered kilim over the nubby jute, and a dash of black with the dresser.
So, which one? Talk to me, Goose.
I'm a decorator, wife, and busy mom of three. I believe in elevating the average space, and bridging the great design divide. I love homes, and aspire beyond builder-grade blah. This blog chronicles our own home projects, what inspires me, and sometimes, just what's on my design-track mind. Taking ordinary homes to higher levels is my little happy place.

Ooohh, decisions are hard. Uggh. I think I would choose #2 with maybe the rug thrown in from #3 for good measure. I just love the darkness!
Yes... My fave is also #2. I've been living with the oh-so-charming box-spring on the floor dilemma for too long as well!!! Ugh.
I love the second choice that wall mural is fantastic! Can't wait to see the finished product!
Second choice with the Persian rug- BAM!
I'm totally on board with #2. Can not beat that background and I prefer the navy bed, will provide a nice resting spot for the eye as it ties in w/the paint color and creates a beautiful contrast w/the mural.
I am the odd girl out on this - I totally love #1. Love the idea of the bare feet on that rug, too. :)
I love No. 3 Alison! so comfy and earthy and welcoming. Love the paper accent wall. Hope everything is falling into place for you, and yes, you do need at least the mattress asap!!!!
best of luck.

#2 with the rug! If you don't...I will! (:
i like 1 and 3, but i have seen the wall mural in person and it's super orange.
just FYI. i think #1 in person will be the prettiest. it's understated. soothing. i've never been a fan of earthy colors in the bedroom.
I love them all, but especially number 1. I really want to see that Souk rug in a bedroom. They are always in living rooms. You can't lose, Alison!! Can't wait to see what you do!
3! 3!!!!
I do love option 2, but I'd love to see #1 but with the dresser in black!
3 for sure!! Its more you :) at least in Brazil. Being in the states maybe you feel like a different vibe ( hence #1)?? Good luck
#2 but maybe with the rug from #3. very pretty!
#3 all the way for me w/ the credenza from #2. But they are all lovely choices.
You may need to strip it and start with bare wood. office furniture Sydney appreciate your effort.
Love that navy bed- details please!! #2 has my vote!
#2 with rug and black dresser(West Elm?) From #3.....maybe with mirrors from #1. Love the navy be and that you are going with a dark wall color.
