We’ve been in our house for two and a half years (how?!?!) and I’m starting to get the itch to make some changes. Major changes, but not necessarily renovations. I think a big thing was doing Jack’s nursery. It was more fun than I expected and I really like how it looks…. but it’s making everything else feel a little lackluster. I’ve been chipping away at home projects, and I really do think that’s the best way to do things. Instagram and HGTV shows make it seem like you move into a house, snap your fingers and bam you have a fully, perfectly decorated home. I have a laundry list of changes I want to make, but one of the first places I want to start is our primary bedroom. I like what we have, but I don’t love it. Our home was built in the 30s so there are some serious quirks to how it’s laid out, our bedroom included. It has a funny shape and I haven’t been able to get it just right…. pulling some bedroom design ideas as I’m hoping to work with a local designer I met a couple of years ago at a conference! I know what I like but not quite how to execute it, so hopefully we’ll be all squared away soon.
Right now our room is pretty neutral, which I really do love. But I think I am craving a little bit of color and more texture. I’d love to incorporate more green, possibly a little bit of floral, and just overall a vibe that’s a bit more intentional. We’ll see what direction we end up going in– I’m looking forward to it regardless!! Here’s what I’m thinking so far.
Bedroom Design Ideas
I love the idea of adding some color and texture to a neutral room! Can’t wait to see what you go with!

I feel the same for my bedroom, I m sick of the greys and I think it needs a little 2022 update. The photos are really inspiring, I also like Samantha Varvel’s house inspiration in the same kind of vibe.
I can’t wait to see more of your “renovations”
Ooh, I love that you’re sharing this with us! I love following along with home “projects” even if it’s a simple re-decorate.
Your inspiration photos are so gorgeous, thank you for sharing these! I love all the different prints, especially those upholstered headboards. Can’t wait to see what you choose to do! Would love to get some insight on your design process & sourcing- I always feel so unsure about interior design.
No. 5 with the blue print neck roll pillow and mini loving cup!
We got our house almost 6 years ago and have been renovating it ourselves from day one.. while the big things are done, we now need to focus on the smaller things. I also think that being stuck at home for almost 2 years makes us all want to change a few things around. I am excited to see what you do with your bedroom.
I love all these inspo pics! I had to be *super* annoying, but am still wondering if you have a link to to the bowls you always make homemade salads in. 🙂
Love the style you want to go for. Bedrooms with lots of whites are very calming 🙂 And a touch of florals/prints is great!
