Surrounded By Nature

jubilant — Sun, 16 May 2021 22:34:45 GMT

I love these specific colors of greens used in this room.

With the exception of that gosh-awful ceiling light and night table, I like all these elements. I don't, though, necessarily like them together. There's a certain clash factor going on here in my opinion. I do love the headboard but would probably not carry the pattern over to the skirt.

I could tolerate this room.

IMHO the color green should stay outside unless it's a plant LOL I have one piece of clothing in green that's worn once a year on St. Patrick's Day. (Christmas tree and decorations an exception)

I like the headboard and the wall color. I feel like the room is not cozy and inviting. I would have to add some plush bedding in a contrasting color.

I love the windows and curtains, the table in between with the simple decor on it. I do not care for the bed print and would prefer a different print or in a soft solid color. The night table is not my taste nor is the quilt. pillows on the bed. This room needs change, something to perk it up.

The ceiling needs to be white, that light fixture gotta go. The bed has too many patterns going on. It's just too busy. Totally not my style.

@stevieb

I thought that might be a giant sea anemone.

Either way, I'd ditch it. I do like the green and the windows. The lamps might have to go with the anemone, but I could probably live with most of it.

Green is good.

@just bee I love green and in this instance it's such a fresh, true green. Love it. Probably there with you on the lamps. Didn't much notice them out of the gate, but not loving them, or, as I later added, the night table. The biggest problem with the fabrics is there seems to be a total disconnect between them. There needs to be better coordination between the bed, the bedding and pillows and the widow coverings. They all have appeal but they don't blend very well. The ceiling fixture is downright scary.

I like this room, even the ceiling light!

I'm with you on that and those night tables. And I don't think I'd sleep very well with the giant sea creature over my head.

I agree with @stevieb about the ceiling lamp and night table but, other than that, I love this room. I've never liked green, but this room makes me change my mind. That bed is beautiful; I love everything about it and would love to sleep in it right now!

This bedroom is pretty. Nice & bright, cheery. The colors go well together however the print on the headboard/sides is way too busy for me. I love the quilt though & the flowy curtains. That ceiling light would definitely get tossed.

No to that bed, no to the side table and lamp. Need a different bed. The blue bed linens are fine if there is some blue in the draperys. Who decorated this? The light fixture needs to change to a nice chandelier. Now that I rearranged the whole bedroom -- it looks good, LOL

@Katcat1 That ceiling light is very unusual to say the least. I wondered about it, too. I was thinking I would probably change it out for something else. I zoomed that picture to 500% and the lights all look small. I can't help but wonder if it reflects a moon and star kind of vibe at night. I agree that it doesn't do much for that room in daylight. It would be interesting to see what it looks like lit up at night.

Too many different prints going on.

It's a no for me. I'm not a fan of green used in decor nor do I like nature prints.

The room is just ok to me. The Side table needs to go, along with the bed skirt, the headboard is fine, but not both in that same pattern-too much for me....I also don't care for the light fixture! I would also need to replace the quilt with a nice fluffy comforter!

I like the color used but not the print on the headboard, drapes, or bedskirt.

I would go with solid off white.

I kind of like the light fixture but the nightstand is not for me.

The coverlet is fine for the warmer months..,it's not too busy so I like it.
