“The War of the Roses”

My Poppy Bedroom

So when we moved I knew I wanted to decorate my new bedroom, even though, at most, I only spend 4 months out of the year there. We were able to use all my old bedroom stuff in the guest room, so since that didn't go to waste, I was allowed to get new stuff!

I of course wanted to paint the room orange because a) very few people have orange bedrooms b) it would look AWESOME and I knew it c) I had a handful of beautiful poppy pictures I took my junior year I could hang up.

So here is my orange, poppy themed room!

My mom has had the bed, the armoire, and the dresser (not pictured) since she was a teenager. I used them for years before my dad and I built my murphy bed in the old house.

Thank you Target for having the PERFECT poppy comforter! That was sheer luck.

The Ikea bookshelf I put together (mostly) all by myself!

The orange wall and my favorite poppy shot.

More pictures of the hallway (yes, hallway) and bathroom to come!
