Flea Market Finds in the Bedroom

Hello everyone!

I thought I'd share a few changes that I made to my bedroom using things that I already had.  I have had this magazine for a few months and recently gave it another look.  I became inspired by a few pages in it.

As you know, my lower level is pretty much void of color.  I prefer a more serene feminine farmhouse feel to it.  However, upstairs I have more color. It has become a nice outlet for me to play with colors there too.

Here are some inspiration pics from the magazine above.

I love the pops of blue and fuchsia combined with the softness of the cottage style.

I love the feminine lines of this room, ie; chandelier, drapes, bench, layers of pillows. I am also drawn to the cheerful colors.

I love the pattern on the drapes and the flowers.

I believe that the dominant factor in these rooms is that they all have a "flea market" feeling to them.  In other words, the decor is not matching and has a collected cottage feel to it. 

So............onto my bedroom to see if mine has any of those qualities now.

First off, I added a punch of color with these fuchsia flowers and blue painted lamp to the dresser beside my bed.

The dresser and the floral painting both came from flea markets!

I carried the blue color over to the other bedside table too.

I don't have room for a bench, but had this vintage needlepoint stool that I added to the foot of my bed. It came from a flea market as well.

I painted the legs gold.  The needlepoint is in disrepair, but I think that just adds to the   charm of it.

Beside my chair, I have a wicker magazine holder......from a flea market.

And.......above my dresser is an old piece of metal used as wall art.

So, you can see that my room is a mix of flea market finds, floral patterns, mismatched furniture and playful colors.    I think it's a nice deviation from some of the other rooms in my house.  Don't we all need a little detour every now and then? 

Thanks for stopping by!
