Must Have: IKEA REDALEN Bed

Design*Sponge

 

I've had my eye on this bed since I moved into my new digs in November.  I have been wavering back and forth as to whether or not I really like it.  After seeing it in action, though...I think it's a must.

IKEA REDALEN Bed Frame

Room Envy: Emma Reddington of The Marion House Book

Yum.

This room reminds me of a beautiful rustic house I once lived in while performing in The Berkshire Mountains.  I love so much about this!  The 12-inch baseboards, the handcrafted bed frame and matching bench...even the way the drapes are hung to accent the way the two windows meet in the corner.  This is the kind of bedroom I want to curl up in with a good book on a Northeastern rainy summer day.

I'm loving the gray walls with the rustic accent of a simple tree branch.  It looks kinda like the antlers I have been wanting to put on my wall.  And the faux fur throw on the chair is just sooooo inviting.

Hello, Gorgeous: Engan Nightstand by IKEA

Mid-century modern goodness in the form of the IKEA Engan nightstand.
And with a price tag of under 50 bucks, it's enough to make me swoon.

Inspiration: Canopy Beds

I love a good canopy bed.  Something about them reminds me of my blanket fort building days when I would drape various colorful quilts and coverlets over anything that would hold the fabric up like a tent.
