Some lovely inspiration.

A lovely room by Ikea. I love the shelf display above the headboard. And that bed looks so cozy I want to go dive in and fall asleep!


And check out this stuffed-to-the-brim living room. Found here. The couch? No thanks. Random art covering the entire wall? Yes please!


Now, I've always considered myself a tom boy. I'd much rather put on jeans and a t-shirt and go to a rock show then get all dressed up and go to a ball. I own one single pair of heels that aren't even that fancy, and I've worn them maybe four times. I don't get my nails done because long nails would interfere with my guitar playing. And I have never had a pedicure in my life. But... my favorite color is pink, and there something about a glamorous and girly bedroom that will always make me smile. I can only hope my daughter will want a lovely pink and frilly room one day, because I would never dream of torturing my husband with a bedroom like the one pictured below =)



Right here.


The next two pictures have to do with my love for the idea of a bathtub in a bedroom. Sounds a bit odd, but if done right, could be amazing. Who doesn't love a long, warm, relaxing soak in a bubble filled tub? Picture scented candles, calming music, a low light and charming chandelier overhead, and maybe even a glass of wine. Wouldn't that be more relaxing if done in a cozy and inviting room with a better view then tile and a toilet? Yes. Bathtubs are for bathrooms, and for kids who splash; so lets call these "roomtubs"...for adults who want to take a load off and enjoy a good book. I want a roomtub. Don't you?



Right here.

  2. Love the ikea bed too but I just hate sleeping under a shelf - the idea of it falling... Do you devour designsponge online like me for decor ideas/ I love the before and afters...

    No pedicures for me either - and short nails all the way - how can you craft with long?? Plus neat short nails look so nice but what a contrast loving the pink! Great!

    I redid the cookie recipe - what an idiot - an american recipe untranslatable to americans - loved what you wrote!

  3. Ooo designsponge is great! Adds to the list of projects to try and do one day!

    And thank again for redoing the recipe!

    Tiff, a clawed foot tub would be the only way to go yes!
