Bedroom Dreams

I think your bedroom is (one of the) most important places in your home.
People shouldn't underestimate the importance of rest, of relaxation and of course sleep, long sleeps (full of great dreams...)
What is better than lying on a gorgeous bed with fresh washed sheets and then realise you actually have to do nothing in the next couple of (hopefully at least 8) hours.

People tend to use their bedrooms as a place to overthink their days and unfortunately it doens't stop at overthinking, i guess people also worry a lot in their bedrooms. It is a place where you are alone or with your partner (who's already asleep when one of his ears touches the cushion, of course) so you have plenty of time and space to think. Let's be honest, thinking is a good thing, let's keep thinking please, but why in your bedroom? Why not use this room as a place to stop thinking and start relaxing or only sleeping, to reload your own batteries for the next day, but even more important: to reward yourself for all you have done that day!

There isn't only one type of bedroom style i appreciate.
Over the years i flipped through the pages of so many interior magazines and i saw so many beautiful bedrooms in all sorts of styles.
I just cannot name one style i like and want for my own bedroom (which can also make it difficult to choose things for my bedroom, because i don't want one particular style, but i don't want it to be too chaotic or even messy also).
(To be concrete, i have a small two-room apartment, so it is impossible for me to only put a bed and a closet in my bedroom, because i have too many things that need a place.)

I don't think many people have the luxury of being able to use their bedroom only for sleeping. Mostly there is a closet and other things too, simply because of the lack of space in your home.
To me, it is important not to make your bedroom a very busy room with loads of stuff. It only distracts you from relaxing and sleeping. Of course a little decoration is great, also in your bedroom, because that's what makes it personal and really yours.

Beautiful little corner you can create in your bedroom, when you don't want it to be too empty and 'zen'.



More things to decorate..





All white and very romantic....



I already told you about my weakness for whites, but these folklore and very colourful flowery blankets are also very cute and you can really create a specific atmosphere with these....



The bedroom below is painted in a great colour. I think this colour creates a relaxing vibe immediately and it matches great with all sorts of whites and purples for decoration, sheets and blankets.



This one is actually very minimalistic, which also has it's own charm in my opinion.
It's very empty, but the bed being so close to the floor makes it special and romantic. The light behind the bed is also gorgeous.



Although this bedroom below seems kind of busy, it also looks very cozy and peaceful.
I really like the forest wallpaper as it creates such an impact immediately and you can decorate everything around it in that particular atmosphere by using natural materials and colours. The little vase with white flowers makes it even more sweet.



This bedroom is pure beauty to me. I found it more than a year ago, i guess it's the bedroom of Anh Minh, who also has a great website and blog.
The white and coloured sheets match perfect with the beautiful dark wooden floor.



As i mentioned before, i cannot resist cutting the most beautiful pictures out of my interior magazines (same about fashion magazines to be honest), and i paste them in my 'little inspiration book'. I made some pictures to give you an impression of what's in it, but the pictures are blurry, so i am sorry about that.
Usually, I am not into dark spaces at all, but i am willing to make an exception for the bedroom you see on the right, below. This bedroom is just so beautifully decorated and everything matches so beautifully together, it's just gorgeous!





Since i am not completely satisfied with my own bedroom, because my apartment is simply too small to create the bedroom i really want, i hestitated to show you my bedroom. I decided this post just isn't complete when i don't, so here it is.




Some blogs and sites that will definitely inspire you when it comes to home decoration: Decor 8, The style files, Sfgirlbybay, Designsponge, absolutely beautiful things, Emmas, {frolic}.

Of course i am very curious again about your opinion about bedrooms, your own bedroom and the bedrooms i posted. Are there any you particular like or dislike and why? What do you use your bedroom for....only sleeping or do you have a working space in your bedroom, for example?
( And no, this post didn't cost my 9 days to create, it only took me a few hours this time, hopefully it doesn't make it less interesting than the 'Bathroom Dreams' post.
