Display Thursday: In the Bedroom

Jan 19, 2012  |  Posted by: Megan Stay

I have one wall of wedding related photos in my bedroom. I got a couple printed at my work back in 2008 and they’re fantastic. The printing method is crazy and frameless looking. Sometimes I wish I had them downstairs so I could look at them more often. I centered everything around a framed poster I gave Luke our first Christmas together. Which was only ten days after our wedding… yes, we were crazy, CRAZY IN LOVE!

Ok so first off I love this bedroom. It’s not tally my style but I can totally appreciate how rad it is. I am a sucker for red. And in combo with a fancy-schmancy headboard, uh, I’m sold. What I love about the photographs in this room is that they coordinate with the black and white decor and leave the headboard the main focal point. Plus that are hung in such a way that the sweet lamps on the side tables don’t hide any of the photos, unlike in my bedroom… Also, that bedskirt, drool. I might have to make me one of those.

You can also forego a headboard and use images in place. In this space they chose to set them on shelves so they are easily changed out as the family grows. Beautiful, no? And P.S. that ottoman side table with the tray is fantastic. Who would have thought!

You can also keep it simple with one image lit by a distinctive light fixture. It can also act as a reading light for those late night book worming sessions (I need to have more of those). Plus you know I can’t resist a photo of a dog. Isn’t he cute?!

I threw in this extra one because in a home theater like this it would pretty much be my bedroom. Look at those lounges with pillows and blankets?!

Do you have personal photos in your bedrooms? I have most of our wedding photos in our bedroom because I wanted them big but not too flashy in our living room. Also, how big is too big to print a photo of your dog? Remember, you love your dog like a normal person loves their child. 30×40? Too much?

  • My husband is so weird about having pictures of us on the walls! He just doesn’t like it for some reason? I have a frame of four 4×6 of our wedding in the foyer, but that’s about it for pictures of us on the wall. Drives me a little crazy sometimes, but oh well! Love all these ideas though. An ottoman for a side table, love it! And the funny thing is, I never would’ve noticed that if you hadn’t pointed it out…guess observational skills are not my strong point, ha! Just found your blog and am enjoying it!
