my "shabby chic" bedroom.

I figured I would share pics of the decor in my bedroom as a few of you have asked me about it. It's very shabby, very chic and I think it's fabulous. So...enjoy the pics--I hope they inspire or at least entertain you while you read this post! :)
I could not find any pictures for above my bed that I loved...so I made some myself using canvas.  Almost everyone that comes to my place asks me where I got them...and is shocked when I tell them I made them.  (And it was an easy project to do!)
I LOVE a full bed...lots of layers and pillows.  Instead of a headboard, I let my toile euro shams and canvases act as the focal point.  (I also make my bed EVERY day.  There is nothing better than crawling in a comfy, pretty bed after a busy day.)
This is the nightstand on one side of my bed.  I decided to mismatch my bedside tables...way more shabby.  
I added this Anthropologie knob.  So cute.  They have THE BEST cabinet hardware there.  It's all super fabulous.
I LOVE this table.  I spotted it last fall at Sample House and fell in love with it.  I crossed my fingers that no one would snatch it up and was lucky enough to get it for Christmas.  It's so cute.
I found this in Canton.  They had all kinds of things like this--all of it cute.  My mom actually has a similar, smaller one that's brown in her guest bedroom. And, I love the keys with the colorful ribbon.  Found both of those in Downtown McKinney.
This is my dresser.  More Antropologie.  Oh, and I got the wall print from Urban Outfitters.  On sale.  YESSSSS!  (My jewelry box is from Pottery Barn--another fabulous Christmas gift.  I love it because it has a glass top with my initials etched in.)
I really like my shelves.  They add so much to a boring corner of my room.   :)

I  found this chair at an antique store in Downtown McKinney with my mom and our GREAT family friend, Melanie.  It was her housewarming gift to me.  It was already that color (which I love) and my mom and I recovered the cushion.
These....I LOVE.  These were my great aunt's and my grandfather painted them.  They are so delicate and pretty and are in the original frames.  They are priceless to me.
So...there you go.  My bedroom in a nutshell.  Now, here's my challenge to you--take pictures of a room in your house that you love and post them on your blog.  It's so fun and inspiring to see everyone's style so share away! Make sure you leave me a comment telling me about your post so I can come visit.  Happy design posting!

  10. I just found your blog through another blog. It's so cute and I adore your bedroom. I love the shabby chic style. You did a fab job! AND~ I love your green chair. My parents had those chairs in the 80's but in yellow. They sold them in a garage sale... Oh I wish we still had one to recover. What a great idea!
