Okay, so as most of you know, I love shopping and I love interior design (generally an expensive combination). The other day out of curiosity I visited the blog www.withtwocats.com. (The blogger, Lauren, had one of the finalist nurseries on the contest I entered and I was checking out more pictures of her baby’s room.) One of the main things she does on her blog is post “idea boards” where she takes a theme/color scheme/idea and then applies it to a room (bedroom/living room/etc) thus creating a picture collage of furniture and accessories.
It seemed like something I might enjoy doing, so I gave it a try. Here is my very first idea board, which I put together for our Master Bedroom:
I’m not going to admit how long this took me, but I will say I had a blast doing it. It’s like decorating a room for free, without any commitments or manual labor and you get to go “shopping” for stuff at any store and any price range you’d like!
We’re not actually going to be decorating the master bedroom any time soon, but now when it’s time I’ll be ready!
love your ldeas. Your colors are always so calming and peaceful.
Thanks Pearl! I appreciate your positive comments. Hopefully someday my bedroom really will be calming and peaceful like my idea board.
Looks nice. Just how big is that key, anyway?
Well, the key is actually just a picture I found online, not an actual product. I put it on the board though because I have a few antique keys I want to frame and use as wall decor in the room.
I saw a painting very much like that in Jackson WY. It was retailing aroung $12k.
I found that image on an art website. There were no prices listed though. I was thinking I might try painting something similar. We’ll see if I actually ever try it.
