- Durham, NC
- Division:
- United States
- What do you love about your bedroom?:
- We love all of the natural light that our bedroom gets. It somehow still feels cozy and comfortable even with all of the beautiful bright light. We also love the bright accent wall color (Asparagus by Behr) that we picked out the day we moved in.
- What are your tips for creating a beautiful, healthy and organized bedroom?
- I always try to make the bed every morning! Making the bed can take a room from chaotic to calm in a few minutes! Our bedroom is also full of special photographs. I love looking at pictures of our daughter and wedding day right before I fall asleep and when I wake up everyday.
- In modern homes, bedrooms have become more than just a place to sleep; they can be a retreat, a home office, a library, a relaxation zone. What are some ways you make the most of your bedroom?
- Our bedroom is definitely a relaxation zone. We read a lot in bed and spend lazy weekend mornings reading to our daughter in bed. We also try our best to leave our work/stress downstairs before we head upstairs to the bedroom.

I love your duvet cover! Where is it from?
It's from CB2! I think it's great that they used such a modern duvet with more traditional furniture, it looks GREAT!
Both the bedding and tufted headboard are great.
Marked as favorite. The YOU ARE MY HAPPY is great but a bit too high. Maybe put it where those wonderful family photos are.
Where is the bird chair from?
I love how you put the earrings . Can you tell me the source ?
I love the headboard!! Did you make it?
You are inspiring me to reupholster my wing back chair. Surely mine could look as cozy and inviting as yours.
Hi- It was from CB2. We purchased it a couple years ago. Not sure if they have it anymore.
I took an upholstery class just so I could reupholster our craigslist wingback chair with spoonflower fabric. :) We got the headboard on craigslist as well and I found a vintage printer drawer on e-bay to hang my earrings.
I love the moodyness of this room.
I love the fabric on the chair - birds!
I need to take an upholstery class, too, then because that chair looks awesome!
Does anyone know where the green, pecking chicken/rooster cushion is from? This is the 2nd bedroom it's been in and I want it!
Okay, let me tell you what I LOVE:
1. Your name....Suganya?? OMG, that is beautiful!!
2. Earring collection
3. Jewelry display/storage
4. Those cute cute CUTE baby pictures
5. The overall room is very sweet, warm, an welcoming.
YOU GOT MY VOTE!!
Hi- The cushion is another Ikea find. :)
Thank you for your kind comments!
Your baby is beautiful! And so is that chair! :)
Great job on the chair - where is the base of your bed from?
The bed and nightstands are from Ikea (the Hopen Series).
Thank you! The chair is definitely one of the hardest projects I've taken on but it was worth it! :)
I'm in awe of the fact that you reupholstered that chair!
Wow.
Headboard is amazing. That plus the chair makes this very special!
