My favorite bedroom of all in this contest! I *really* hope you can do a House Tour! And I too wish you included a source list. This is one fab-u-lous room!

Ignore the mean-spirited criticism. I think your room is an absolute delight! It's cozy, eclectic and very creative! I'm pinning a lot of ideas from it -- thank you for posting!

I'm from South Asia and in my native culture using lots of bright colors in clothes and home decor is very popular. When we bought our first home I wanted to use a calm and neutral shade of paint on all the walls that would be a good backdrop for many different colors. Then, by chance, I was looking through one of my mother's books on the history of art in our country and saw that the pages with photos of different paintings, sculptures, etc., were all of one warm, beige-y shade. I took the book to Sherwin-Williams and found a paint color, Believable Buff, that most closely matched the book pages. We painted our home in that color and it's just perfect! It takes on a very subtle, almost wheat-gold shade in the sunlight, which I absolutely love. It seems to change in different kinds of light too, but it always tends to lift my spirits.

There is such a refreshing sense of peace and sweetness to your space! Well done!

Simple and peaceful! We too just got a multi-light arc floor lamp, and this is giving me great ideas on how to use it ... thank you! :o)

Completely gorgeous -- I hope this gets a full house tour too!

I usually dislike grays-dominant color schemes, but this is amazing! It's sophisticated but not in a stuffy, overly "done" way. It looks warm and comfortable and creative and just wonderful!

You did an awesome job lwyrgrl! We recently bought a pair of $10 thrift store chairs that we got recovered too. I love doing that, and would get more done if we could afford it. :o)

I love this -- unique and sweet and intriguing at the same time! :o)

Amazing and so very inspiring! :o)
