Mai's Bedroom Makeover... (Made By Girl)

A blogger friend, Mai from 'A Cup of Mai' blog recently made over her master bedroom & decided to share it on Made by Girl with all of you! Mai & her husband moved into their home 3 years ago & finally got around to sprucing up their bedroom. 
 

She told me they went back & forth with decorating, returning items and so on....then finally decided on a COLOR scheme & TA DAAAA....a new bedroom make over revealed!!!  I'm only showing you the AFTER photos of their room- for the BEFORE picture, you can head over to her blog here.  


At the bottom of this post you'll be able to find all the sources, enjoy & thanks to Mai for sharing! 

My FAVORITE parts of the room are the splashes of bright YELLOW & that luscious headboard! It's from Target....can you believe that?!?!?

Luisa's Bedroom by Angela Cunha...(Via Made By Girl)

I'm back! Sorry for the sudden disappearing act on my part...I had family in town & wasn't able to concentrate on my work for too long! I swear, I feel so behind on everything now. So much for playing tourist! Ha!  

However, thanks to all of you who commented on the GIVEAWAY (one post down) -it's not over yet so please enter. The WINNER will be selected on Monday April 25th! 

Today... I bring you a super CUTE bedroom that belongs to a young girl named Luisa. The pics were mailed to me by Angela Varela Cunha, a Portuguese Interior Designer who reads my blog. I couldn't be happier with what I saw!  

I'm always CURIOUS how other designers from around the WORLD design & decorate a space.  I tend to notice some subtle differences in style, color & even furniture which is always interesting! How about you?  Notice any differences?

Let her know what you like best & if it inspires you! 

 

 How cool are those pink striped walls??

Emily Decorates Her Daughter's Room...(Via Made By Girl)

Blogger & Interior Designer Emily Clark sent us these few pics of her daughter's room. I thought it was so fun! It's great to have a mother who knows how to decorate & helps with the decor in a little girl's room right?! For me, I really thought the monogrammed pillows were a great touch as well as the cute HOT PINK lamp bases!

Oh & let's not forget that HUGE polka DOT wall....oh yea! It was sweet to see that Emily managed to find a place to hang my Love Candy print in a cluster of framed art on one side of her daughter's room! Thanks for sharing Emily!

Inspiration For My Guest Bedroom... (Via Made By Girl)

I'm having family over at the end of February & I really need to get the main guest bedroom (I have two) ready!!  


Ready meaning, it needs to look appealing. I CAN'T STAND having guests over & having them sleep in a DUMPY ROOM...I want them to feel as comfortable as possible and make the space as aesthetically pleasing as I can.  

I'm going for a somewhat GLAM look, something pretty but STILL unisex. I've been scavenging the internet for inspiration, and I love Spanish sites like Nuevo Estilo, they have a ton of large photos for readers to look through! I selected these to get me started.....

So, are you re-doing a room in your home? Where do you find inspiration??  I'd love to hear from you!

My NEW Bedroom in Progress.....

Here's a peek at my bedroom, we bought the two side tables (slash nightstands) at West Elm. These were the tallest I found that would be just as high as my bed is! I love them! The headboard & the faux fur throw are also from West Elm. I have lots more to decorate and am thinking of a piece of ART over the bed...hmmmm.  

ALSO, I SERIOUSLY need new king size bedsheets and duvet, can you tell?!?!?

What do you have HANGING over your bed?
