Thinking About Bedrooms A Lot Lately

I have been on a major hunt for bedroom inspirations, and boy, oh boy, did I hit the mother load. We want a warm, yet crisp feeling in our oversized master bedroom. We have challenges ahead of us which include the debate of a run, or no rug. Our puppies sleep with us every night, and let's just say they have a bladder issue in the middle of the night.

The bedroom is so important to us to. Living in Brooklyn, we had tiny shoe box like bedrooms. I don't think we ever had a closet in the room. Ya know, in fact, we haven't. Now we have two rather large ones. And a bathroom. And so much space, we don't know where to start. Check Out our current state.

Doesn't quite give you the same feelings those first photos did, eh? We are working on it. We are just re-teaching ourselves how to use space. Mind you the photos above are 1/3 of our room. The only part of the room we use. So let's get down to business and talk about the inspiration photos. I am really drawn to the canopy bed with the green stripes. I think it's a passive way to take up some space in the room. I mean a bed is going to be big, whats a few more inches of fabric? Each of these rooms are very mild in color and holds a lot of furniture without feeling cluttered. The rugs add such a softness to the rooms too. I love a cozy plave to fall asleep in.

What have you done to make your room feel more cosy and personal? What kind of bed to you pick and why?

as some of you already know, our wedding is nearly 100% hand made. everything is earth friendly, hand done, and completely unique. i am excited to have a wedding that represents the life we life, however it has been proving a bit more difficult to have the things we want, because it's jamaica. im betting they dont have peonies. i love the environment, i just dont want tropical decor. im sure we will figure it out. also i learned that when you say "wedding" the price goes up about 50% for everything!

i have to admit though, we have been pretty lucky. we agree on almost everything, not one ounce of arguing about anything, which is a wonderful relief. i heard so many horor stories of how planning a wedding can ruin a relationship. im happy to say it's actually making us stronger, and teaching us to communicate really well!

we have had the return address labels designed, as well as stickers and some favors. pixelbypixel (on etsy.com) did the work. they did a good job, though communication was a bit difficult (emails only.) It was worth it though, the results are exactly in the theme of the wedding.

thats all for now really! still havent quite nailed down table design.
