Romantic Bedroom in Gray

Hi Friends,

If you have been following us over the past 3 months you know we featured 12 weeks of stylish, romantic bedrooms. Last week was our final feature in this series but we wanted to share one last romantic idea with you; Romantic Bedroom in Gray.

This bedroom not only has romance but a zen-like quality that many will appreciate. An over-sized headboard brings drama without the over-sized price. Visit your local hardware store for discarded wood blocks, ideal for this project and at a steal. Then take a trip to your local fabric outlet for foam, fabric, spray adhesive and no-sew tape. Check our earlier features for instructions on covering an ottoman, simple window treatments, and a no-sew duvet cover. Remember, recycling your comforter and throw pillows for this part of the project is not only a great cost saver but Earth-friendly.

Cut the foam to the size of the blocks, adhere each to the blocks then cover individually with the fabric. You may hang them separately on the wall then frame it out or have a piece of wood cut to your dimensions and frame that out for the perfect headboard at very little cost.

Recycle your night tables and pull a chair from another room that will compliment your bedding, you will be surprised at how renewed old furniture looks with a new headboard and bedding.

Always make every effort to recycle whenever possible. Take care of the Earth and it will take care of us.

Check back for more decorating ideas and enjoy your new Romantic Bedroom in Gray.
