Handmade Cotton Quilt

I love quilts. I think they're the ultimate bedroom decor item. Handmade quilts even more so. They provide a sense of “home” like few other items do. I really like this one, with its simple design of stars and squares – simple and crafted by hand in warm reddish tones. I like how they added the checkered pattern into this quilt. It just screams out “home”, well in a mellow quiet tone ;)

This quilt is gorgeous and very affordable at $49 at the time of writing these lines. With so much work put into it and such a detailed wonderful finish, this is an awesome price for a piece of interior decor that can really add a special touch to any room. An awesome gift for winter time and the holidays:

Wall Murals Tips

There is a remedy for rooms that make you claustrophobic. The antidote for cramped or windowless spaces is to paint a continuous landscape mural on every wall and the ceiling, to trick the eye into believing you are outside with lots of room to run in every direction. Perspective drawing of your favorite landscape is all you need to turn your room into a relaxing, beautiful environment.
Covering your wall with a beautiful detailed mural can be the key to any fantasy room. If you can bring it alive in your art, or if you can hire the right person to do that, you have the opportunity to bring your fantasy to life.

A wall mural is a way to bring the outdoors inside, using artistic inspiration. It does not have to be perfectly realistic, either. Letting the imagination run wild can be the key to some very interesting artistic creations which can inspire you and those who share the room with you.

A room mural is perfect for kids, adults and elders. Teenagers and convalescents will find room murals to be especially helpful when they lack the mobility they crave. The mural gives them the feeling of being outside, roaming freely.? Adventure landscapes spark kids's imaginations.? Office workers can become more inventive and industrious when they are treated to inspiring views.

When choosing furniture for a room with picture painted walls, be sure to pick items that will enhance rather than cover or clash with the painted scenes. For instance: If your room is painted to look like a desert, then large embroidered pillows and low laying ottomans would give the d?cor the feel of a Bedouin tent. If your room is painted to look like rolling hills covered in vineyards, then using furniture you'd find in a winery garden would fit the scene.
