apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

I love it.

The idea is kind of cool...but I'm not real enthused about this particular room.

Awesome!

I have this picture saved on my computer. I love the blue chair..... I have found a few of that style, but so expensive :(

A DAUGHTER'S BEDROOM!!!!!!!

that's the size of my entire apartment. geez.

Have to do it!!! I suspect it will make my narrow 290 sq foot 10 foot room look wider eventhough I have 11 foot high ceilings, I need to make the room look wider

love it! makes the low ceilings somehow more bearable.

this room is beautiful.

not a fan of the stripes... but I LOVE that chair!

I think it's really cool. I want that gorgeous chair! I love how the stripes give the room an edge to counteract the feminine tufted chair and chandelier. I think it's a beautiful example of blending styles.

ange_lune, i'm with you!
that room just looks so comfy & beautiful...love it!

it must've been difficult taping on the ceiling... good work

I love love love that chaise. Anyone know where it's from?

This is one little girl who obviously does not have allergies.

I love this...what a great idea, what a fabulous room

The chaise is from Brocade. There is some question lately if Brocade is going out of business - because the chaise was 1/2 off. Recently their website was not accessible.

ugh ... i want that chaise!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cool room, and the chaise is rather reminiscent of the Mad Men headboard!

Um - That bed does have a headboard...
...it's the MALM bed from IKEA.

You just can't see the headboard in this photo since the thick mattress is up on a boxspring, the low headboard is behind the big pillows and the photo cuts off the side view of the headboard on the right.

I like the curtains. Where can I find an inexpensive version of these plentiful curtains and how much will it cost me?!

Love that idea, of the stripes

What I want to know is where to find a curtain rod that long. I've only seen max 180" in stores. Anyone? Or is there an easy extender to work with?

Re: Curtain Rod

The rod pictured in that photo is probably less than 160" - for more length, you'd have to go custom.

Re: Curtains

What do you consider inexpensive? How much effort do you want to put into it? Sewing curtains isn't that difficult - it's just a bunch of straight seams and you don't need elaborate pleats...

epodz -- You can get a custom curtain rod cut for you at any Home Depot-type hardware store. A wooden pole is best if you have a really wide window. (Trust me, I opted for metal and it started to sag after a year or so.) You'll need to put a support bracket in the middle (as the picture above has). But it's not expensive or difficult to get custom curtain rods.

bepsf- I can't believe you're the only person who said what I was thinking in terms of the malm having a headboard.

Gorgeous!

It's a nice room, but how old is the daughter? It's really, really adult, and kind of boring for a kid's room.
