Q. im redoing my room and i want it to look like massie's
can anyone help me?
can anyone help me?
Answer
I'm going to guess that you are talking about Massie Block from the "The Clique"; so here is a way to make your room look like Massie's:
begin with painting your walls all white, semigloss- or eggshell finish. next get hard-wood floors (Massie has no wall to wall carpet). Massie also has a brick wall that has been painted white. Paint stores sell thin sheets of brick that you can put up on one of your walls. (but remember its PERMANENT, so make sure its what YOU WANT). Next, all your furniture must be white, for instance a sleigh bed, white leather chaise, white desk (for your apple ibook or mac)and white night stands. Massie loves the color purple and purple is the color of royalty; so have fun with this color. Use it for a purple duvet cover, purple sheets, purple accent pillows, purple vase (or white case with purple flowers), lamp shade with white base, and maybe even purple curtains. Just remember do not use TOO MUCH purple, you don't want to overwhelm your room. Get a few white flokati rugs to place in front of your bed or on the side. For lighting don't forget the chandelier (purple or purple and white) Massie has one in her room. Also if you really want the Massie bedroom look don't forget the mannequin (because every girl needs away to look at outfits). Also to complete the look you'll need a mirrored shelf for your lip gloss collection and don't forget the flat screen tv for entertainment, if you have a dog get a purple fluffy dog bed, and white or purple stereo.

How should I decorate my master bedroom?
the_katyka
I have an Ashley North Shore sleigh bed and nightstands and am looking for decorating ideas. My husband and I both like antique type looks. I'm thinking about something Victorian or Renaissance for the theme, but am not sure exactly what colors, bedding, window treatments, etc would go well with these ideas. I need to end up with something that isn't overly feminine but still authentic to the time periods. The link to see the furniture is here. http://www.furniturexo.com/North-Shore-Sleigh-Bed-Bedroom-Set-p-36591.html and we will be getting the dresser and armoire sometime in the not-too-distant future. Thanks to all you creative home decorator types in advance! :)
Answer
The lines and the style of the furniture are a modern interpetation of Tudor/Jacobean. Which is more toward renaissance era then victorian.. looking at england in the 1500's.
This would be a typical color palette of the time.
http://www.countryliving.com/cm/countryliving/images/flowers-mantel-1108-de-96861642.jpg
Velvet and velvet flock material with cotton fringe, Oriental rugs, Carved chairs and upholstered footstools. Tapestry was a given. Silver was highly prized.
So...here is what I suggest.
Do a wall in a full tudor panel. http://www.wallpanellingcorp.com/tudor/fielded/images/WPT-A059.jpg This is a bit different the std wainscotting as your squares will be 12 on 12. With todays moldings this is cake http://www.matthewwalterwoodworking.com/trim/bedford-wainscoat-white.jpg
An oriental rug
Get a round bolster that goes the entire width of the top of the bed. It should match the coverlet. The coverlet is akin to a bedspread - this is a topper with fringe. The chenille will work very well here on a buget http://www.linensource.com/default.aspx?page=productdetails&pattern=SR0&cm_mmc=ShoppingEngines-_-Singlefeed-_-Shopzilla-_-36578&sender=external With a velvet flock bed scarf and bed roll. However this set is perfect in and of itself http://www.neimanmarcus.com/store/catalog/prod.jhtml?itemId=prod68570116&parentId=cat14300735
This is a good price for a set that would work and not make your husband ill http://www.sears.ca/product/whole-homer-md-jacobean-paisley-bed-in-a-bag/696-000659862-001-JP-TWIN_4_BIB The sheets aren't right though and an alpaca throw would be great.
Little additions such as hurrican lamps, wreaths, a silver vanity set http://cdn1.ioffer.com/img/item/158/803/536/kWOe.jpg pitcher and bowl
Rather then bedside lamps use hanging coach style lanterns or scones. https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEji8mmVdECsDWYPzzMARR0U_ptGXjuWqD0bNaaOYrYrHQ7LRKN1ZU66DFVbMrBCaDiLbCN8-pOzpG4XTnF4hmFntlamR7hmC5Gfo2g6KscDRpM60F-Hf_BEkD5GPXdo06v6sPMf4ERwgh0/?imgmax=800
