Reader Question: Lindsay's Bedroom
Lindsay wrote in recently with her bedroom design dilemma:
I have no choice but to block a window with my bed. My room is VERY small. I really want a headboard but am not sure if it is appropriate to block the window. (There is still another window on the adjacent wall.) I guess what my question is, is if I am forced to block about 1/3 of the window what style of headboard should I go with? Something with cut-outs so that it allows light through or can I get away with a solid?! Or should I just forget about a headboard totally?
The window is not centered on the wall behind the bed. UGH! I think that could make for tricky times too! Here are some stats on the room:
- IT'S SMALL. Very SMALL but we love it! : )
-I've tried to put the bed on the wall with no window but it looked horrible. And made our small room even smaller.
-This is the bedding that I have already purchased for our room and some pics of the room

Wow that was such a great idea!!!
ReplyDeleteI don't have suggestions for Lindsay except to say that yours is perfect cause I love having everything symmetrical and the look is fantastic!
I would definitely go with the sheer curtains to make it looks symmetrical yet let in some natural light. Personally I hate being in a bedroom with no natural light because it makes it much harder to feel awake in the morning... but that may be just me.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your choices. The inspiration photos were divine! Makes me want to change the layout of my room...hmm....
