Beachside bedroom

Who doesn't love a beachy vibe?  After seeing pics of someone's condo in Florida, I thought maybe I could bring a little bit of Florida to my central Illinois bedroom.   I picked out new bedding, lamps, bedside tables, window coverings, rug and accessories, and then painted the walls.  Ahhh, it is so serene in here. 


So little exciting palm trees in the room are:

~Wall shelves were bargain find at Goodwill.  Perfect length and perfect color.  SCORE!

~Wicker bedside tables were bargain find on Craigslist.  Perfect color and perfect size.  SCORE!

~Starfish lamps were bought at TJ Maxx with gift card.  The lampshades were perfect fabric and they fit so nicely under shelves.  SCORE!



~Palm leaf pillows were on sale at Kohls.  Perfect color and perfect size, and well, they are palms. SCORE!



~Jute rug was at Overstock.com and it is the softest feel, and perfect size and color for the space. SCORE!

~Entertainment center/dresser was a find at the resale shop in Fairbury.  Was $35 and perfect height and color for a beachy feel.  SCORE!

~Coral laundry hamper was found at TJ Maxx with my Christmas gift card.  Perfect color and free. SCORE!



Really my most favorite thing in the whole room is this canvas!  This pic was taken when Addie was 6 and Reece was 3 and it's probably one of my most favorite pics of all time.  Mom had given me a gift certificate to get a canvas made and I chose this one.  I also had this vinyl saying made by someone on ebay.  This came from a song that was sung on one of Addie's Disney Sing Along videos when she was little.  It always makes me smile.  This really completes the room for me!
