How to Create a Romantic Shabby Chic Bedroom
If you’re like most people, you probably find yourself wanting to spend more time in bed during the winter months. So why not create an ultra romantic shabby chic bedroom to dream away the dark hours?
Probably the most important element in a shabby chic bedroom is soft fabrics in soft colors, with a good dose of white tossed in. Take a tour of today’s romantic bedroom by Outrageous Interiors for a fresh spin on a dreamy bedroom.
The palest pink blanket hides beneath white ruffled linens that make the bed look like a soft cloud. In addition to romantic bedding, be sure to include some rustic, vintage elements to the space like old shuttered doors and distressed wood panels that create a headboard. Textured pillows add a bit of color.
A textured sisal rug gives the bedroom a bit of texture. Consider elements of whimsy too, like the paper butterfly cutouts on the vintage makeshift headboard. The wood and textured rug help balance the feminine ruffles and pale colors.
A closer look at the bedding reveals ruffles on the bedspread, bed skirt, and pillow shams. A beaded lamp adds a bohemian vibe, which is totally appropriate for a romantic shabby chic bedroom.
Shop flea markets and second hand stores for vintage furniture that can be refinished. It’s also a great place to find wall art that isn’t outrageously expensive.
Tucked in a corner is a French style chaise paired with a vintage wrought iron lamp. Any piece of white wrought iron is perfect for shabby chic style. Note the beautiful vintage linens hanging at the window.

I think most of us long for a bit of softness in our bedrooms, and this romantic shabby chic bedroom is perfect for enjoying the longer evenings during the winter season.
So sweet. The window treatment in the chaise lounge picture gives me ideas. Hmmmm..
Ideas is what i treasure when i read your post, you fill my head. This is a wonderful retreat for spending the night and dreaming of spring.
Thank you so much for this shabby post! Loved it!
I love this, especially the wrought iron lamp. Chippy old pieces bring so much charm to any decor.
I love the juxtaposition of the very feminine with the kilims and wood. Keeps it from being too frou-frou.
