Oh La La

Remember when I was looking for a headboard for the spare room here? I recently found a beautiful one! Although, I really wanted to have a pretty color like pink or blue, I opted for a cream tufted headboard with a satin material. I have fuchsia pink curtains and I thought a colored headboard would compete with them. After weeks of searching for just the perfect one, I found it at Target of all places. Hey, I'm a budget babe ;) I have to say, it looks very elegant and expensive. Score!

What do you think of the headboard?

I am thinking of painting this room. I have a white desk with bright turquoise chair seen here. And the duvet cover is light aqua/torquoise (it's hard to see that in this picture). I want to keep the room looking light, airy with just a few splashes of brightness. So I was thinking of a white or a very light color like aqua? Any suggestions?

  5. I agree, it's beautifully done... chic and elegant. And I think a sprinkle of aqua would be equally gorgeous!

  6. How about aqua on the wall behind that fab. headboard alone. I love the one wall of color against a fantastic piece. Target is the best... leave it to the French. When I need to get glad, I just jog to Target; buy lip gloss, popcorn and a candle... done!
    On-line for the headboard?
    So, what does your Fella think of all this sweet chic stuff goin' on?
    Oh, and after the Oscars I was awaiting a gown critique blog... but I am ok... I give the Target headboard an Oscar for realistic, posh and pleasing decor! I wonder what your room looks like if you take this much pride in the spare. So savvy you are! Have a super evening.

  7. So luxurious! I'm liking the aqua wall suggestions - I'd go with a very pale one, just a hint of color.
