Romance the Bedroom Series: Week 5

Romantic Bedroom Series Week 5Hi Friends,

Welcome back and thanks again Caren Baginski! Week five is special, as we focus on tradition. This traditional bedroom gets a classic look with delicately patterned wallpaper juxtaposed with warm, yellow stripes which gives this traditional bedroom a classic look. Sweet florals contrast the mahogany furniture, a stunning Cottage-Style Bedroom.

Although small in size, this room is large on style. Transform a small space into an inviting master bedroom. If your style is more contemporary, a change as simple as the bed style and bedding will give the same space a completely different look. Don't be afraid to experiment with color and style to create you own unique design.

For more decorating ideas be sure to come back next week for our continuing series.

Romance the Bedroom Series: Week 4

Romantic Bedroom Series Week 4Hi Friends,

Welcome back and thank you for joining us again to continue our Romance the Bedroom Series and a special thank you to Caren Baginski. We hope that you are getting some great ideas from us to change your space. This is probably going to be our most popular week in the series as it's done on a budget. We all enjoy saving money, right. Well you will definitely sleep easy knowing you created this romantic retreat on a budget.

A beautiful bedroom doesn't have to be expensive. Mix flea market finds with sumptuous, new bedding and carpet to create a cozy space that feels as if it has a rich, romantic past. Don't allow your space to age you prematurely, take control of your space, you will be surprised and even exceed your expectations for your bedroom at a cost that will romance your wallet.

Consider adding a chandelier for a light fixture that makes a statement and creates a mood. Treat yourself to a Luxurious Bedroom Retreat and then a night on the town with all the money you save.

Check back for more decorating ideas in our 5th week and take a trip to the flea market this weekend.

Romance the Bedroom Series: Week 3

Romantic Bedroom Series Week 3Hi Friends,

Welcome back to our continued series in stylish ways to make your bedroom romantic. Last week we featured soft colors with florals and geometric fabrics, this week lets focus on sensual colors that exude romance especially with the addition of candles. Warm plum and orange with a billowy, silk canopy to the ceiling as a finishing touch is ideal for this space.

Bright colors and lots of fabric turn this bedroom into a romantic retreat. You will be overwhelmed with the transformation, truly a relaxing retreat. Incorporate a romantic vibe using warm colors, flowing fabrics and candlelight, as was done in this week's feature room. The walls are painted a deep orange, and silk drapes frame the window. The gorgeous four-poster bed, TV table, nightstands and dressers ground the space without feeling crowded. To make the bed soft and romantic, a silk canopy is hung from the ceiling. Finally, add the ultimate romantic accessory — a special piece collected from a romantic getaway or spontaneous trip. Caren Baginski is truly gifted on this subject.

Check back next week for another great romantic idea for your bedroom and share our link with your friend. Until next week, Happy Decorating!

Romance the Bedroom Series: Week 2

Romantic Bedroom Series Week 2Hi Friends,

Thanks for returning to the second week of our stylish romantic bedroom series with the direction of the gifted Caren Baginski. This week we set our focus on fabrics. Instead of painting this 500-square-foot master suite, our designer added color with fabrics featuring glacier blue. For large bedrooms that would take days to paint, bring in color with fabric, a great alternative. Glacier-blue florals and geometric fabrics works well in this spacious master suite. If blue is not your color, go with your favorite but try to keep it light and airy.

Check back next week for more decorating ideas in our Romance the Bedroom Series and enjoy decorating your special space.

In the first week of our series we are going to be a little dramatic with wall color. When you enter this bedroom, you'll notice the bold green walls first and then the bed takes center stage. Want your own sexy, stylish bedroom? Start with the bed, it makes a perfect focal point in any bedroom. If you need some inspiration, visit your local bedding or department store. Displays are ideal to get your creative juices flowing.
