Redecorating

My sister said she'd help me start redecorating my little condo! We'll have to start with my bedroom paint color. I'm definitely leaning towards neutrals since my living room color is a little bright:



So for my room I'm looking for a bit of a greyish gold color. I have this bedding:

 Shimmering Leaves Duvet Covers and Accessories, 100% Cotton

that has both gold and grey in it - so I think that might be perfect. Although I know it's not smart to base something as permanent as a paint color on something as disposable as a duvet cover, I think a neutral color would be safe.

I have light wooden furniture (nightstand, dresser) but I'd really like a window treatment of some sort to add to the decor of the room. I also think some artwork would be nice since I have nothing on my walls but a (broken) clock.

Thanks to Pinterest I have a whole virtual bulletin board full of ideas! Here are some of my favorites that I'm seriously considering:


I love the 3 framed pictures above the headboard. I just recently purchased a beautiful off-white headboard so some artwork would look great above it.


The window treatments in this photo are just gorgeous, and i love the pop of green that the flowers give - could easily buy some fake peonies (my sister's and my favorite flower) and plop them in some decorative vases!


I would love to have bay window seating... And with the way my windows are in my bedroom, I think maybe I could... but it would make my room smaller than it already is. So I might have to save that dream for my next home...


Call me crazy but I think it might be beautiful to have mirrored tiles make up stripes on one wall like in this bathroom! It would add an element of glamour to the room!

I have a bunch of ideas... I just need the time and the funds!

Jessica! Help!
