Rich Red Bedroom

In this master bedroom, the richness of red is articulated with an antique buffalo-check coverlet paired with luxuriant bed curtains and worn crimson paint on an old trunk, table, and lap desk. The hooked rug above the table features a Texas star.




Rustic Feminine Bedroom

A tin ceiling from a New Orleans opera house and vintage chandelier add a sense of rustic glamour to this feminine room. Rich floral paintings and a chocolate brown bedspread add a touch of contrast.




Old-Fashioned Green Bedroom

Soft green paint, distressed vintage furniture, and a black-and-white family photo give this room an old-fashioned, homey feel.




Sunny Floral Bedroom

The flower-strewn fabric used for the bed hangings creates a rainbow effect. The designer simply took yards of (hemmed) fabric and draped them over the bed frame. Flowers are abundant throughout the room, including quilts in the corner of the room and a painting above the fireplace done by English artist Lord Alastair Gordon.




Farmhouse Bedroom

Beadboard wainscoting was added to give this room a country feel. An iron bed, treasured for its patina, topped with a floral bedspread completes the look.




Quilts and Antiques

Cheerful red-and-green hollyhock wreaths pattern a rare set of matched quilts (c. 1860) covering the two country-style four-posters. Behind them, a wall treatment of old paneling painted Soldiers' Blue adds architectural interest and plays up the warm cherrywood of the beds and the 18th-century lowboy stationed as a nightstand between them.




White & Red Bedroom

A quilt displayed behind a bed is an unexpected burst of color in this white room. Other soft textiles such as mosquito netting add layers of interest.




Cottage-Inspired Bedroom

Inspired by her grandmother's treasure-filled cottage in the Hungarian countryside, this homeowner appointed her bedroom with antique pine, sturdy enamelware, and tick-tocky wind-up clocks. It took six months of devotion to eBay to amass this collection of landscapes, each featuring an idyllic cottage.




Country Bedroom

As an ode to country style, this homeowner tried to keep the room authentic with bold colors, regional antiques, bare floors, and simple lighting.




Tester Bed

The centerpiece of this room is a Sheraton tester bed, circa 1820, covered with a vintage wool coverlet. The bare frame is kept showing to give the bed a more masculine feel. A child-size chest of drawers functions as a bedside table.
