Love this look! Has anyone tried to put this together on a budget?

7 years ago

Hi - we have purchased a new super king size bed and a charcoal grey headboard. We are looking for a luxury hotel look - but on a budget! Would welcome any ideas! Thanks

I think the bedding is pretty, Marta, and you just need to tie it in to the rest of the room - and get some more pillows! A patterned cushion on the little chair will work wonders and art work - when you can manage it - that is bigger and has some brightness to it. I prefer the white curtains - the navy is too solid and heavy. If you put your nice ottoman back in there under the window - again with a throw or colourful cushion - and try the chest of drawers at the foot of your bed (when you have some strength and aren't tired) the furniture will look better. I like the idea of chandelier bedside lamps. If you do that, get one much taller than what you have now. What is your overhead lighting? There are nice round chandelier type shades you can get that'll throw the light around the room nicely. I still covet your lovely dresser :)

thanks Jonathan, I like that idea. I have decided (for now) to paint the wall to see the effect on the light in the room and then work my way up to the wallpaper :¬) although I have looked more at the wallpaper and wonder if it has too much brown in it so I am also looking for another (cheaper) wallpaper.

Agree with Jonathan, buy one, take it to bits and re-cover it. It all depends on what look you're going for really. The deep buttoned ones are hard to do. I used to run my own business restoring antiques and doing some upholstery. For an easy one, look at this video:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6EM7qLyd8Y However, this is really how it should be done, the first guy was very amateurish. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlbgRdvO8TI It really isn't as easy as it looks, however, as I said, it all depends on the style that you're going for. If you want a deep buttoned one, then i'd strongly suggest to keep looking for one that you like, because recovering one of those is not for the feint hearted.

Has anyone used outdoor grade porcelain as a patio?

This is just my opinion about porcelain, some people don’t have the same opinion. The non slip factor is fabulous and you can walk barefoot on it in the rain and it’s steady underfloot. It is only the difficulty of cleaning R13 porcelain that is annoying. A lower grade like R11 is easier to clean. I’ve bought a jet washer so we shall see how that goes.
