My mom’s bedding is a pale, mist blue and tan paisley pattern on a cream background. The closest idea I could find is the curtains in the background above. It’s much more subtle than those, but it explains the inspiration piece a bit.
Yeah, right. If she had all the money in the world, and Candice was her best friend? Maybe. I can see this being my mom’s dream room. Mostly because of the design, but also because I love it so much, I’d be sleeping on that chaise in front of the fireplace. What can I say? My mom likes having me around.

I love anything Candace does, she never disappoints. All the other pics were beautiful too, so whatever you all go with will be beautiful. I actually liked the look of the dark wood with the light bedding. It makes the furniture seem nore substantial. Can’t wait to see what you choose.
Astrid says
I honestly can’t decide which bedroom I like the best. To be honest, I don’t like the gigantic bedrooms though- what a waste of space- my opinion of course!
I do love the mix of light and dark (light fabric; dark woods). In some way it’s very soothing.
Jessica says
I adore that last picture!!!!! GORG!!!!!!!!
Rhoda @ Southern Hospitality says
Chris, those are some awesome inspiration photos for your mom’s room. Can’t wait to see what all you come up with! And glad you are coming to my spring fluffing party next week.
Dawn@Embracing the Ordinary Life says
Oh…I’m gonna need some help myself with window treatments too…I have two windows in my room…they are different sizes(length)..and I think we will be putting the bed under the shorter of the two…I also will be using fabric for my closets…took the doors off!! I am soooo confused about wether or not I should use the same fabric for the two windows and the two closet opening…and on the short window, if I put the bed in front…what do I do with the window covering…???
OOOHHH I wish I had the money for a decorator!!

So, I will take picture number three for my master. I love the step up to the bed.
Have fun decorating and don’t forget to share pictures with all us nosey people:)
Barb says
Great pictures sweetheart. My vote is #7 and #11. I planned on white crown molding, pale grey paint, ceiling to floor (very full)voile curtains. In photo # 11, I love the long mirror that takes your eyes up! But how to incorporate it into my size room? HUM..If I had the money, it would be CANDICE OLSEN!!! With you on the Chaize. Thanks for all the great ideas. When can you come and peel off my antique wall paper?

I am sure whatever you come up with will be beautiful!
I was stopping over here to ask you for advice on my Living Room, because I really like your Family Room and wanted your input, if you get a chance.
Thanks, Chris!
