A Summery Bedroom

Hello everyone!

Well, I did it again.  I changed a few things in my bedroom.  The reason?  Well, since my walls are white and my draperies are neutral, and the bedding is white, it's just so darn easy to do!  I could come up with just about any color scheme I wanted to in here and just by changing a few pillows and accessories it wouldn't cost much.  So, that's what I did in my bedroom for the summer.

This time I added some cherry and pink.  I don't want anything fussy just simple cottage style with a summery feel.  I think I got it.




A simple change of pillow shams with a cherry paisley design  got me off to the right start.


I also added a vintage grain sack with a red stripe to the bench.




On one side table, I added some cherry blossom branches to a pitcher and some books with prayer beads on top.











On the other side table, a simple white crock filled with white hydrangeas.



Adjacent to the bed, is a chair and ottoman covered in a ruffled blanket and some simple pillows.



It feels very summery in here now.



Have a great Memorial Day weekend!

  I hope that you can all take time out of your fun weekend plans to remember those that made the ultimate sacrifice for our country too.

Thanks for stopping by!

~ Kelly ~

    Very summery!

    I don't have any fresh flowers in our bedroom - the only room without. My side of the bed has a stool that doesn't have space and Steve complains when I "decorate" his side of the bed.

    And, Lulu's crate prohibits my having a bench at the foot of the bed. I miss it.

    I think you got it just right too! I love the subtle touches of pink. Are those faux cherry blossom branches? They look very real, so I was just wondering. You always have a knack of picking out the perfect looking blooms and arranging them so beautifully. Love your bedroom!

    Oh-Kelly- That is so very pretty. What I like about it is that it is summery and bright but doesn't feel overly feminine. It is just perfect for the room! xo Diana
