HIGH HOPES FOR STYLING A TWIN ROOM!

July 11, 2012

A high coral colored upholstered headboard with a Chinoisserie print makes a big impact against  sea grass wallpaper in a twin bedroom. (above)

Twin bedrooms are kind of like powder rooms to me….from a decor stand point that is.  A cute small guest powder room has traditionally been the place in a home that interior designers and design enthusiasts use to make a big decor statement with bold wallpaper, daring paint color, exotic finishes, statement tiling, whimsical accessories and more.

Similarly, a twin bedroom, whether it be for guests or kids should be a room in which you take a risk and have some decorating fun.

What better way to make a design statement in a twin bedroom than with a high profile headboard or bed frame?  A taller than normal headboard or bed profile can definitely up the ante in visual impact.

Here are some examples…

Bedroom with two twin beds with tall upholstered yellow brocade headboards

Bedroom with two twin beds with high arched iron bed frames
The high arched iron beds make the biggest statement in this very sparse little twin room. (above)

Which of these twin rooms do you prefer?  I am having a hard time deciding!  None can also be an answer…if so, how might you style a high profile twin bed!

Happy Wednesday!

    Be still my heart! I’m in heaven! Designing a twin bedroom and having custom four poster beds made was one of the highlights in my life! My daughter’s room is a dream if I do say so myself! Wish I could photograph it well and show you! These pictures are breathtaking!

    Some really great ideas! I really love the pop of coral on the head board, and the traditional guest room is simply pretty. Thanks for sharing!

The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools The kitchen island gets all the credit. The stools rarely get any.
Velvet, woven wood, molded modern, sculptural, cast brass — seven islands, seven completely different takes on where you actually sit down. Some rooms go quiet with it, some go bold. Both work.

An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate.An easy fall tablescape you can actually recreate. 🍂
You don’t need a perfectly styled table or a dozen new pieces to make a fall gathering feel special. Start with what you already have and layer in a few simple details.
Think woven placemats + simple white plates + gingham napkins + fresh greenery. Add clear glassware and a simple centerpiece, and you have a table that feels warm, collected, and ready for dinner with friends.
The best part? Most of these elements can work beyond fall, too. Just switch out the napkin pattern or greenery and you have a completely different look.
Save this for your next fall gathering and use it as a starting point for your own table. 🤎
