While my total of $220 might not seem like a tiny budget for a bedside area, I got so much more for my money because I made my own headboard! I have seen headboards just like the one I made for upwards of $250! Instead, I spent less than I would have on a beautiful headboard and was able to put it towards lovely fixtures like my wall sconces.I decided to use sconces because I wanted lots of light next to my bed, and the nightstands I purchased didn’t have much surface space to fit a lamp and whatever bedside necessities I may need. I really love the look! It is so cozy; perfect for the cooler months.
I want to give a huge shout out and thank you to my friend Jaleesa, who is the artist behind my beautiful new fashion illustrations. I had this vision in my head of hanging old fashion illustrations in black in white above my bed, and with Jaleesa’s help my vision came true! She went above and beyond and created 8 unique and stunningly elegant fashion illustrations for me.
It was so hard to pick two to go above my bed, but I absolutely love them. They are a gift that I will cherish for a long time. I just love the symmetry of the matching sconces, nightstands, and illustrations. I feel like I’m in a luxury hotel!!
How will you re-vamp your bedroom this fall?
