Mixing it up






















{Image 1}

Don't you just love this bed? Not only is it bright and vibrant, it's a feast for the eyes. Where to look first? So many colours, textures, patterns. I think the lamp is an absolute winner and of course I love the touches of turquoise: the headboard, the sidetable!

I'm keeping this on file as I find it inspiring how interesting and wonderful a bed or even a room can look by mixing it up!

What do you think: to mix or not to mix?

  1. I really like it, the colour combo, lamp, headboard and wallpaper.
    I personally wouldn't be able to mix and match as much as the pic, I would probably keep the basics then just go for a navy doona with white and orange pillows. Nice post!

  6. Definitely the mix - this image goes to prove how well it works if you follow a few tonal rules.

  7. A visual feast that certainly works well. Love the lamp. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog Anna, and as for the advice re gray, I am going to go with it. I do not know why I didn't think of it!! Thanks once again.
