Copy Cat Bedroom?

Do I finally have a direction for my bedroom? 

(remember the weird color I picked for it?)

Am I going to Copy Cat this very cooooool bedroom by Emily Henderson?

I am very tempted!

I'm not sure sleeping next to a cactus is really Feng Shui, but the room is so coool.

It is pretty much the color of my room (kind of very dark and saturated teal). And I love that tropical green. Remember I said that green was going to be very trendy this year?

I directly though about the Aquatic collection of Mademoiselle Dimanche for the textiles.

But I still have two sets of Emmie Curtains and they where looking very good... So I am thinking about using them eventually (the white curtains are really NOT looking good).

(Gosh this picture is really not doing anything for them!!)

And the patterns would Not work together...

So, instead of patterns, I could you for the cushions, a mix of those cushions from Zara Home and white plain cushions:

What do you think? The first option is better right?

Patterns Week : Chevron Isn't Dead Yet

Ok. This may not be the most unexpected post ever.

2011 was a chevron year.

So was 2012.

And still, chevrons won't die in 2013!

I'm not unhappy with that! Chevrons are easy to mix.

Plus, there are plenty of DIY possibilities.

DIY chevron walls :

Very nice for an entry, for example.

I like the DIY very much, but I prefer most sophisticated ones as this one.

Lamp shades :

For the patterns shy, lamp shades (like cushions) are a very nice possibiliy.

I love the "entrelacs" collection of Mademoiselle Dimanche, a very talentous French designer.
