Re: Pretty and Different Look for a Bedroom...

Love the window, pretty pillows, curtains and the window seat. I could spend many happy hours there.

 

If there was sufficient room, I would turn the bed facing the window. The present placement makes no sense considering where the closet is...

 

I would paint the walls a prettier color and take down the daisies on the wall.

Yes, but in modern times, that closet is iniadequate unless that's a guest room or a seldom-used vacation home.   

 

If they are re-decorating, a little money could be spend on improving closet space, one way or another.   IMO, If that's a primary home, there has to be at least one walk-in closet.

 

JMO, of course.

Pretty room; decor not my style.  My bedroom has to be dark as a cave, so me and that nice window would not go well together.

This room is comfortable and soothing.  I like the neutral colors and the light accessory colors.  I like the idea of the bed facing the window, but assume there was not enough room to change the location of the bed. The only change I would make would be removing the daises on the wall.  Very pretty and peaceful bedroom.

Re: Pretty and Different Look for a Bedroom...

It's pretty but sooooo not my style.  I see this more for a guest room although I wouldn't have this for a guest room either.

Wondering if the door goes to the bathroom?

It's very pretty, although I do not like the nightstand, and it could use a bit more color for me..Love the Window Seat...

Oh boy, that room, looks like something for a spinster.  Sorry.

 

And that headboard?  Definitely not something for our bedroom.

 

Window benches are usually just a visual.  I've had them and bay windows with window seats.  They are pretty useless.  Better to fill with light loving houseplants.

 

I don't think the door is for a bathroom unless you make a sharp left as soon as you enter.  There's nothing there right outside the window, you can clearly see there's no 'addition'.

 

I've lived in older homes (1920's) with small closets, you just learn to to deal with it.  Or not.

Love, with one exception--the flower plaques above headboard.
