apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Very very beautiful. I would love to know where you found your vanity, I've been looking for something similar and having quite a difficult time!

love this! just painted our living room a similar blue and have been having trouble finding the right accent colors- your post was a HUGE help!

Where is your bedding from? It's lovely!

I second the bedding question - I'd love to know where to find it!

Twilight books yessssssssssssss

I recognize the bedding - it's from Urban Outfitters.

Your room is truly a restful refuge. Great choice of colors and patterns!

I love this. What are the shelves above your bed? Are they Lack shelves from IKEA? or maybe something more high-end? I'm looking for storage ideas for my itsy-bitsy bedroom and was wondering how sturdy those shelves are for books and stuff (especially since, if they fall, they'll be on your head).

Thanks!

Half my personality likes it simple; the other likes it bohemian. Your room makes my bohemian half cry out in primal joy!

I really wish i could see that wall color more. It looks more like a dark teal than a navy, which are both fantastic. Such a cozy cave!

Ah, I just love this room to bits. Like another entry, the colours and (especially in this case) furnishings remind me so much of a bedroom I decorated once. I would love to transform the walls of my current bedroom with some divinely rich colour but I've only just persuaded the landlady to let me paint the kitchen wall green and I haven't even got the paint for that project yet! A prussian blue bedroom will have to wait...

This is a great color. My husband too is a fan of blue and this color would be great in his office. I second the question, where did you get that vanity? That is exactly what I have been looking for!

I wish I had the skills to put together a beautiful room like this!! It's BEAUTIFUL!

Love, love, love. Great colors, great pieces, great room!!!

This is a beautiful room. The use of color and patterns is outstanding!! I love seeing all the personal touches.

Looks awesome! Wanna come decorate at my house?

Awesome job guys! I hope you make it to the finals!

Absolutely stunning! You have an amazing eye for design!

Sweet Room!!!! Looks even better in person!!

This is so lovely! Its cozy, and you have such a great personal style...

The is grandma chic done right! I love how you mixed traditional wood tones and patterns with more simple lines and bold rich colours. You can tell that this room was created by adding each element as they happened naturally and not trying to cram some theme or look into the room. great job!

VERY nice work! I agree with TheoJ 100%... I enjoy how naturally effortless everything flows together. Your room is stylish, without being stuffy... and therefore, totally livable! ~ap

I love it sis. I want that color in my bedroom. I want you over soon to help me design and paint my room.

just beautiful! I have a deep turquoise room that would benefit from the same color accents that you've used. Thanks so much for the inspiration.

It looks beautiful! You have a definite talent for this stuff!

twilight!!!

I like it, but I'd be awake all night waiting for those heavy books to fall on my head.

You get hypnotized by those lamps! Love the contrast in the lighting and the glow of the bedding! Very fresh... I think the shelving is perfect

charming, romantic, whimsical - lovely bedroom!!

I like it, but I'd be awake all night waiting for those heavy books to fall on my head.

On the other hand, mjs7640, there'd be a certain delicious irony in someone getting brain damage from a complete hardcover set of Twilight novels falling on their head.

BTW that is a great colour.

Jake and I want to thank everyone so so much, for all of your sweet comments AND helping up get through to Round 2! We also thank anyone who votes for us this Wednesday in advance ;) Don't forget about voting for Chris today...my fellow Minnesotan!

*Comforter & matching pillows were indeed from Urban Outfitters
*My Mom found the vanity, dresser & head/foot board at a garage sale when I was in college...I took one look, and could envision them in my future home!
*The book shelves (in Espresso) are from Lowe's, and we had to use anchors to handle the weight (oh - and the shelves are really light weight, so yeah - the Stephanie Meyer books would be the hard-hitters ;)

i have those lamps and while i thought they were lovely against my pale lavender paint...they have a very dramatic effect against your dark walls. very nice. i love everything about this room. you've done an amazing job.

absolutely utterly beautiful!

Beautiful!

Hi Melissa! Good luck tomorrow. Your bedroom is really beautiful. Lisa [of the blue bathroom :)]

It is absolutely wonderful. The colors are welcoming and comforting.

Makes me want to go sit on the bed. intimate for the bedroom.
