Project Big-Girl Room

I have been neglecting to buy myself proper bedroom furniture for quite a while now. This could be a reflection of me spending too much of my salary on clothing and other areas of my home, but now it is time to focus my funds and much needed attention to this very important space and get it together. 

I am really embarrassed to even show you a picture of my bedroom but part of fixing the problem is admitting to it, right? Here litteraly goes nothing...

It was just as painful as I thought it would be!  I clearly don't spend any time in this awful room because I hate my bedroom furniture the fact that I have no furniture. I have a crappy mattress, an iron head board given to me by a neighbor who was tossing it and that white little target table I keep all of
my under-roo's in.  What a pitiful sight, isn't it?  The only thing worth salvaging in this room is my blue Ralph Lauren bedding, but my bedding also needs to be updated. Luckily, I have a clean slate to work with since this room is naked so the sky is the limit.

I am begining to put together my grandiose plans for my little dream bedroom.  And while I haven't made any real decisions, I thought I would share some inspirational photos I am using to design what I am now referring to as my "big-girl bedroom". 

I'm not sure where I found this photo, but I love the healthy dose of green in this room and the beautiful yet unexpected furniture choices. This headboard was love at first sight so I am definitely committed to finding a perfect upholstered headboard. I think I am on the right track now.

This is the bedroom of Palmer Weiss.  I love this space because it is beautiful, uncluttered and

very romantic.  Isn't it just so glamorous? Maybe not inviting for a hubby or boyfriend, but honestly the closet and bedroom is one area I think men should back down.  Sit boy sit! None of that man cave business will ever stand in my home.

I love this bedroom of fellow blogger Nicole Gibbons.  After a hard days work, this is a space I would want to come home to.  It is very calming and clean.  Blue is my favorite color and she has used small amounts of blue accents around her white bedding.  This bed looks so soft and comfy I just want to jump on it.  Again, another fabulous headboard...

You dreamy little space you...

This room designed by Melissa Warner is insane. I haven't stopped obsessing over this wrap headboard and every other item in this room. Ring me up one of everything!

This room pretty much sums up heaven to me as I could hibernate in this space all year long. I love the bed, the pop of coral red incorporated by the throw and the gold framed gallery wall. 



I hope to be in my "big-girl room" as soon as possible but there is a lot of work to do.  My first order of business is having curtains made, as the light coming in my bedroom is keeping me up at night.  I also need to purchase some night stands because I am going crazy trying to read and make to-do list in bed at night.  

Stay tuned as my little ideas come together and I work (at a turtles pace) to transform my naked bed room into a beautiful big-girl space!
