Once you have all the Christmas Decor down, everything looks so empty and bland. I think all the extra decor and color is wonderful, but it is sort of nice to have things decluttered. Less decor and less color seems like what I am looking for right about now.
A snuggly fur throw to cover up with and a nice chair to sink into are all I really need.
Our headboard is still one of my favorite things and is always the show stopper in our bedroom. I love the carved wood and the pretty brown and black upholstery. Everything else can be really simple so it can shine. My nightstand has one of my favorite lamps that I found at Goodwill and a small bouquet.
Some decor pillows in soft shades of beige gave me just enough color and still not too much.
Quiet and simple, just the way I like it. (I still need to get that jewelry armoire stained – definitely on the list. )
Bedroom Take #2 – Do you ever get in a rut and keep things the same way more often than the times you change them. Those pretty white with black trim Euro Shams have been on my bed for years. Ever since I did the black and white drapes in the last house, those shams have been on the bed. Now what if I take them off and do something even a little more simple.
I really like it. It looks so much more elegant and refined.
I think I should have taken those off a long time ago.
See how pretty it is to let the throw pillows shine on their own. Ok, change is good, I need to do things like this more often. Switch things up and take something away and add something next time.
The dresser stays pretty much the same. We just need to hang the tv on the wall or do something in the way of a gallery wall.
The master bathroom is back to simple too.
Just the things I use all the time.
I love the faux orchid here, it reflects in the mirror and looks so pretty. Nice to have something that looks like outdoors.
A pretty tray, and a really pretty little jewelry box to hold my watch & rings.
A clock, pretty candle and of course some tissues.
I really enjoy the window over the tub, it lets in some natural light. This room always looks so pretty and bright.
The shower and potty have a small window in there too, so it also always looks nice and bright.
Just enough sparkle and glitz. Now to get that vanity painted.
How about you, are you de-cluttering and going for less too?
