Rustic Bedrooms from Zara Home

We love looking to European retailer Zara Home for staging inspiration. Their catalog photos always present unique ideas, usually with a unifying theme behind them. This year, the spring catalog is all about rustic style: timber headboards, layered blankets in natural colors, and lantern light fixtures. Click below for a few ideas...

I'm really liking all of these looks, but I wish Zara wouldn't invite the local dojo to practice on their pillows before photo shoots.

Seaside had better not be kidding. 'Cause I am still sore to have failed to go to either of their Paris stores during my last vacation. When they were carrying a Bollywood collection to make the heart sing.

I like how all of these beds have 8 or 9 pillows on them (chopped), and the last has a whole 10 on the bed and a basket at the foot of the bed with 3 spare pillows, in case you think you don't have enough. I like the lanterns a lot.

Retailers like to push the pillows because they have massive profit margins on them.

If they can find a way to get you to NEED a dozen or more pillows for the room to be complete, they know they will be rolling in cash.

Wow, think about all the pillows wasted for these beds - LOL -- take all the unnecessary ones from the beds and we'd have pillows for dozens of beds.

We each sleep with two pillows apiece since we're both accustomed to it from our single days - but even when the bed is made, there is only five on it since I use one throw pillow. It's mostly there for when someone is reading in bed and wants/needs an extra pillow to prop up.

I agree with RichardinLA - retailers want people to think they need a dozen pillows.
