This is going to be a shorter post today. When I recently photographed our bedroom for fall I thought about how much I have changed it in the past years and months.
But I have kept a few key pieces which just shows how much you can do with accessories and there is no need to change out all the furniture if you have good basic pieces.

2015 and 2016 bedroom:

This way has been my favorite and I haven’t felt like I wanted to change it ever since and yes my photography has improved as well which makes a difference. (Click HERE to see more for sources)

My 2014 fall tour (click HERE):

For spring I went much lighter with plain white Ikea Merete curtains, no mirrors and copper and coral accents. Pinterest followers clearly made this a favorite.

And those paintings I made were a new addition as well.
Here is our bedroom in 2013 right after I reupholstered the chaise (click HERE). Lots of teal and turquoise but I love how much the rug and chaise changed up the room.
Oh and during that time I painted the free Craigslist mirrors (click HERE) turquoise. And we still had the family silhouettes I made over the bed.
This was early fall 2013 (ugh that brown chaise!!!):

And here is the brown chaise, tiny mirrored side tables which were perfect for our previous queen-sized four poster bed but not the king-sized new one and the zebra rug.

It all feels like such a long time ago. Well it kind of was a long time ago I just hate admitting to myself how fast time passes.

We have kept the mirrors, the chaise, the bed and the lamps but the look has changed completely.
I don’t know about you but I usually love seeing posts like this on other blogs. It’s always interesting to see how things have changed over time.

Tschüß

    Woah! Crazy how small changes can make BIG differences. It’s so amazing to see how involved you are with continually updating a room. I’m inspired <3

    How interesting to see all the different looks! To see them all together is very clever and

    So interesting to see all four images together.

    You know that I am constantly changing things around our house. It’s fun! I am always surprised how many different ways the same room can look by changing a few items!

    I love to see the progression of a room. Isn’t it funny how our preferences change with the years and the seasons!

    Wow! What a change. It’s beautiful both ways, but I love how different it looks with your new touches.

    Wow! Such a difference over time! The chaise and the rug (dark-light) totally revamped the room. Love all the touches that you have put it. Gorgeous!

    So fun to see how things change over time! It took me a minute to realize you were going backwards instead of forwards….until I saw the chaise turn brown again 😉

    I would love to know where you got your bed! I think that might be the perfect mix of masculine and glam for my husband and I!

      I’m so sorry I’m late to answering this. My bed is from Magnussen Furniture but they don’t make it anymore. You could contact them and ask just to make sure. I linked to a similar bed at the end of this post in the photo slide: http://cuckoo4design.com/2015/10/reveal-of-the-new-bedroom-look.html It’s such a bummer that they don’t sell it anymore!
