Wow, where does the time go?! I cannot believe it's almost the end of July and I haven't posted anything since last Christmas. Sorry about that. Sometimes time and I do not see eye to eye. To get myself back into the groove of posting, I thought I would share some of the sets that I have created recently.
I receive a lot of requests for bedroom sets to showcase sheets, blankets, computers, and home decor items.

I could easily recreate a bedroom over and over again, but I try to make each one look different. I am usually given a direction to go -- modern, traditional, cottage, teen, masculine, etc. But the rest is up to me. I like to create a story for the room, such as who lives there, where the doors or hallways lead, etc. It helps me create a more realistic look, in my opinion.
Two things that I change in each room are the night tables and what's at the foot of the bed. You do not always need to get the matching tables when you buy a dresser. I've used all kinds of tables, trunks, stools, and chairs as end tables. I usually stack books on the seat of a chair, but this time I went for a softer approach.

I thought this color combination was interesting --grey, green, and hints of orange. I used an outdoor urn with round frosted glass top from another table as the nightstand. It turned out to be the perfect height and looks great.
The combination of blue, yellow, and tan create a soft and serene bedroom that's comfortable for everyone.
Collections always make a room look more personal and lived in. Clocks on the mantle or small chairs hanging on the wall; a big impact with only "one" item. The round green night table doubles as a place to have morning coffee or write a thank you note.

I really like how the headboard frames the lamp. Placing a simple tray on the ottoman turns it into a night stand.

One of the best ways to make your room look pulled together and professional is to spread out the accent color(s). In this neutral room I used blue as the accent. The blanket on the bed, the chairs, lamp, art, and vases spread the color around the room and make it feel complete. Even though the shades are slightly different, the room reads tan and blue and calm.
