Comments (15)Hi James, Here are a few our sample swatches of prints that would look great in your room. Having looked at your window and sofa bed I would suggest one of the following options; First of all our award winning Bloc Fabric Changer Roller Blind [our unique design allows you to clip on and clip off so that you can change your look in an instant without changing the mechanism.] Secondly if you desire total black out in your bedroom our Bloc Out Blinds offer total darkness, unrivaled by other blind designs currently on the market with the added bonus of increased heat retention. Good Luck! Sile...See MoreCurtains for guest bedroom
Comments (13)I like both of Carolina's choices, they appear to be linen which I'd also go for. i was looking for a close up of the colours of your wallpaper and came across this ready made moodboard! I also like the idea of a ticking stripe and the sand fabric (on their website it's shown as mustard) is quite nice for cushions. Forgot to say the room looks lovely and very calm :)...See MoreIdeas for office/guest bedroom
Comments (14)I think you're right about having the desk adjacent to the window it will be much brighter there. Alternatively it could go next to the door which would still be brighter than where it was. We have started to have a look at sofa beds and I guess I will need to go to a few stores to see if any are actually comfy. I have slept on some terrible ones in the past. Built in storage is an interesting idea but it may be out of our budget given the high ceilings and cost of tradesmen around here....See MoreIdeas for guest bedroom
Comments (22)The book case could work well at the foot of the bed, but I would pare down the contents so it's not so crowded. We all love looking at those bedrooms with beds that look so snuggly - so a thought could be to plump up the bed clothes. When buying doona, douvets or whatever, purchase a size bigger than the bed - double bed, queen size doona, or even a king size over a double. That will give plenty of drape over the sides. Some texture could be good, notice Sonia's pics show lots of varying texture? The throw blanket could be a deeper mauve, pink in a big knit or a soft velvety mink. You could pick up a richer blue or again the mauve in an extra pillow or two. The pillows could be in different lofts (ie side sleeper, back sleeper, firm, soft etc) which would give guests a pillow choice. These sort of extras don't need to be expensive, so keep an eye on the bargain sales! I would suggest staying with material lamp shades to keep softness in the room. Wood side tables will be enough of the natural element. As there is a lot of wall space and it sounds like it might take some convincing to get art onto the walls, tall bedside lamps would help fill the wall space along with the headboard. The best height to go for would be a lamp which illuminates down onto the bed so reading would be comfortable. So it might even be higher than the bed head you are thinking of. Again, they don't have to be expensive - just make sure they meet the height needed....See MoreLainie D'Eon
