Styling Our Bedroom

Happy Friday!

Although this is technically my Sunday, as I have to work this weekend.

Boo!

Anyway, wanted to share some recent acquisitions for the

new Twig household, the bedroom in particular.

So, I've had it in my head since we bought this house that

I wanted to hang smocked drapes in the master bedroom and living room.

But I could only locate them at Pottery Barn,

and I sure as shoot didn't want to pay PB prices.

World Market  to the rescue!

Excuse the gnarly iPhone pics.
These are also straight out of the package, sans ironing.

 We have 12 foot ceilings in the house, and the only logical place

in the master to place the bed is in front of this window.

I knew I wanted a drape with a bit of drama going on at the top.

 

 Not sure just how "dramatic" the smocking is,

but I know that I do love it so.
I also love that they were half what I would have paid at PB!

I have another idea for this space too,
tell me what you think...

You see the fabulous awning there at the top of the pic?

I was lucky enough to grab that from my friend Binky's 

adorable shop, Binky La Faye

 Now...

picture this...

You like?

I think it will be stunning, now just to figure out how to hang it!
I do plan to hang it high enough to have the smocking still peeking out.

I also picked up some drawer hardware for this piece...

That's my old Broyhill dresser from the early 90s.

We all have one of those type pieces, don't we?

I didn't want to paint it yet, but I did want to foof it up a bit, so I picked up

these knobs from, once again, the marvelous World Market...

They are so super affordable,
I was pleasantly surprised at the price.

I also got these knobs for a different piece of furniture...

This pic is actually from the Anthro site,
I had lusted after these knobs for years!

{ wait...that didn't sound right. at ALL. }

So I was beyond thrilled to find that World Market
had the exact same ones 

at a fraction of the price. Score!

To finish up, I ordered a pair of these dreamy waterfall shams from

Urban Outfitters just this week...

My poor husband!

Not a manly accoutrement in sight!

Good thing he loves me.  ;-)

That's it for now.

I'll be sure to post pics once we get it all pulled together...

whenever that finally is!

Happy Friday!
