Look! Stunning Light Bedrooms with Dark Accents

It's bedroom month over here at AT and how better to start the month than with some bedroom eye candy. We've been amazed all day with the rich trove of it that is on Emma's blog and want to give you a few tasty morsels here. There is no credit for these pics that we can find...

What mfarling said. Does anyone know of a source? It's like one big cozy scarf...

Please, please, please find the source of the top bedspread. I don't care if we all end up with it, like the ubiquitous "keep calm" poster. It's THAT fabulous.

Another plead for a source on that top bed spread. I clicked over just to see if I could find out more. Love it.

Beautiful pics. Would love to see some dark bedrooms with light accents - that's what I'm about to do in my new home! I'm going with a "dusk" color theme... would love some inspiration!

what I love about the knit coverlet is that it "matches" the knit sweater on the child. wonderful. truly.

That is a stunning bedspread. Most vintage chenille blankets are 100% cotton. Folks could try to find a nice design blanket on eBay or in a thrift store. Then dying it a dark color. I highly recommend Procion dyes from Dharma Trading.

I've seen that bedspread before in the past year -- again, unsourced. Elle Deco/UK? Living Etc.?

If you want to add credits to the photos (!), I'm pretty certain the three last photos are all of rooms by Ilse Crawford:

love black and white- in any room, but especially bedrooms! ours is going for the black and white look, but if anyone has any suggestions, it definitely isn't as grogeous as these. Here is ours: http://makemineeclectic.wordpress.com/2008/12/12/next-comes-the-bathroom-and-master-bedroom/

I have seen that top picture with that yummy bedcover on other blogs a couple of times ..I had sent the picture to my friend who lives in Spain and travels all over Europe to be on the look out for something like it. Not only the texture and pattern is beautiful that grey is out of this world- its a cool and warm grey, taupe-lavender undertones- american mills do not do greys like that.

Bedspread, please! I'd also like to know where it is from. Or at least where I can find the pattern. Any help?

I'm so sorry everyone, but I don't have a clue! All I know is that the bedroom is in a house in Amsterdam... I'm happy to hear that you liked it though. :-)

This is the only thing I can give you, the original source for the picture, in French Marie Claire Maison:

Best of luck to everyone, I hope someone finds the bedcover!

hey guys, I'm new here. I see that marie claire calls this a house in Amsterdam. I live there, but it's not a very common bedcover here. If I run into it, I'll let you guys know.
