Never mind, found it!

If I were you I'd:
1. At least LOOK IN TO getting the stone removed. It sure is ugly - what a shame that someone put that over brick! I think that semi-damaged, painted brick would look a lot nicer than that the "stones" - maybe it wouldn't be so bad underneath.

2. If all else fails, paint it. It's fake, it's ugly, it's not in keeping with the character of the house. I wouldn't lose any sleep over painting it a color I loved, although your pick is not my fave. Too bad your neighbor has the same stones on their house!

In-between! I *sort of* aim for minimalism (but not like in the photo) but I just end up with more pillows, knick-knacks, and patterns than I originally intended. I guess I just like them, and I should just own up to it :-)

My mom-in-law is a MASSIVE maximalist. To me, her house seems cluttered and dusty, and none of the stuff seems to go together. I think she thinks that our place isn't "done" yet or something, she's gotten us some random stuff that I have no use for and doesn't go with anything. :-/ A nice thought, I guess...I literally think she's like "Oh, those poor kids, they only have 4 books and some coasters on their coffee table, let me get them something so they aren't deprived!"

I'm pretty sure that I saw this at Ikea yesterday, and the blue fabric looked really cheap to me. But I'm not 100% sure.

I think so! It looks very "Emily Henderson" to me. Maybe look at this living room (she used that wallpaper) for some color/pattern ideas:

This is really cute. But is there a window covering for that little window above the bed? How does that work? (light/privacy/neighbors)

This is a color scheme I love, the bricks are fantastic, and I, too, own that duvet. I think we have the same curtains as well. I am compelled to vote for you!! :-)
I think this room would be winning if the pictures were brighter and it had been entered earlier. Love it.

I do have a rather ugly wind-up alarm clock behind the nightstands - one of those flesh-colored plastic travel ones that folds up on itself. :-)

I REALLY like this room. Source for the throw blanket at the foot of the bed, please? And the color of the nightstands if you painted them and know it ;-)

I was just going to ask the same thing about the desk! I love it! I'm totally jealous of how serene and sunny this room is. Beautiful.
