Cold-Weather Inspiration

Cold-Weather Inspiration To put a ho-hum Los Angeles guest bedroom into good use for winter guests, this 12x14 area's layout was motivated by winter itself. In the icy white and blue stripes of the hardwood floors to the snowy birch bark wall covering, the room is wrapped floor to ceiling with touches of winter. Get ideas to turn your own guest room (or master suite!)) Into a warm and trend-filled haven.



Wintry Wonderland Stylish menswear fabrics, metallics and nature-inspired details come together easily in this area. A lively mix of finishes, patterns and textures starts with the bedding ensemble, making its way through the entire room.



Nail-Head Detail Furniture embellishments are hot this year, and it's simple to add nail-head trim to a upholstered piece you presently have. To break up the otherwise good look of the flannel-check headboard, we added polished chrome nail-head trimming to accentuate the panel's wingback details.



Whimsical Sweater Pillows Old knit sweaters and men's flannel shirts which were retired from the wardrobe can be given fresh life as throw cushions. This trio of repurposed apparel involves a cable-knit sweater as well as a pinstriped button-up plus a woodsy plaid flannel.



Layer, layer, Layer Similar to layering jackets with sweaters during the cold winter season, textiles cozy this up winter-inspired bedroom. Make sure guests remain hot by leaving them extra-warm covers at the foot of their mattress, like this off-white cable-knit blanket and cashmere plaid throw.



Rustic Hospitality Rustic accents are frequently used to add winter heat to insides, but rustic does not just mean rock fireplaces, thick wooden beams or aged pine. Here, a classic, country-style cupboard door is repurposed to a serving tray with fundamental door pulls as handles. Greet guests with winter treats and hot chocolate throughout their stay.



Birch Bark Wall Coverings Organic wall coverings are a superb way to attract natural textures and colours into a room. In this bedroom, white birch tree bark provides instant winter flair. To fully envelope the room in this texture, it had been set up on the walls, walls and the ceiling.



Reflective Style Every living space needs its share of metallic accents. Just off this room's entry, overnight guests are greeted by a hefty mirrored console table ideal for placing keys and wallets.



Casual Elegance A collection of framed artwork and photography is only leaned against the wall over the entrance's console table. A small table lamp made from mercury glass helps reflect the light it emits once switched on through the night.



Mirror, Mirror Frequently used in glamorous interiors, mirrored nightstands are an excellent way to add storage space, usable surface area and reflection into a room. During the day, any available all-natural light is bounced around once it hits the nightstands. At night, artificial light is reflected, which ends in a hot, warm setting. One drawback: Fingerprints tend to quickly take over the top and front surfaces. To maintain mirrored nightstands clean, consider keeping glass wipes inside the drawer.



Graphic Wood Floor In its original condition, the bedroom has been covered with wall-to-wall carpet. To add a light, airy, picture feeling to the space, basic hardwood floors were installed, sanded and upgraded using a two-tone paint treatment utilizing deck and porch paint plus a high-gloss sealer. When picking the proper blues, we stuck together with these washed out heavily with gray and white to make a genuine wintry vibe.



Midcentury Glamour Vintage accents are an superb way to add one-of-a-kind detail to any room. To use classic in a winter-inspired manner, consider mirrored table lamps in the 1970s. While the metallic silver coating supplies a wintry signature, it also adds an enjoyable, disco-era vibe. Or create your own metallic lamp by including a chrome shade to a basic base. Along with adding a trendy accent into the space, the reflective surfaces assist bounce light across the space.



Silver on Silver For another glamorous signature, consider sumptuous window dressings. This chamber's pewter-toned Dupioni silk draperies highlight the glistening Mylar backing of the birch bark wall covering, while polished chrome hardware brilliantly reflects light coming in through the window across the entire room.



Lucite Light While the style of the ceiling-mounted light fixture arouses the 1960s, the LED bulbs deliver it squarely into this century.



Icy Hues While lying in bed, the whole winter-inspired bedroom envelops its overnight guests with subtle textures along with a tight palette of coordinating colours. A classic dresser picked up at a flea market for $100 was given a wintry update with a glossy sprayed finish. When choosing the suitable blue to the space, a washed-out blue-gray was ideal since it added a wintry look without overpowering the space.



Ample Storage To get additional clothing storage, then the updated dresser was assigned to a very long wall only two feet away from the bed. Its 12 drawers provide ample space for sweaters, scarves and vacation garb. A wedding picture printed on canvas as well as a collection of vivid white accessories create an elegant focal point for your room's far wall.



Sweater Texture Texture is a non-literal method to bring touches of winter into your space. The look and feel of a cable-knit sweater is evocative of a winter wardrobe. To use this texture in an unexpected manner, consider ceramic or plaster vessels comprising the cable-knit pattern. You can even make your own vessels by cutting old sweaters to size and adhering them straight to glass or ceramic vases using spray starch or adhesive.



Color-Coordinated Reading Fabric is not only for window treatments and upholstery. Offer your hardback novels a designer upgrade by wrapping them with medium-thickness fabrics featuring a wintry palette and a mixture of unique patterns. To maintain the fabric stretched taut, secure it to the inside cover utilizing double-sided tape.



Oh, Candle Tree Seasonal trees aren't restricted to vacation usage. Give your bedroom a graphic winter vibe with a metal candle tree which can light up the space on long, chilly nights. It is best to maintain candle trees at least one foot away from walls, window treatments and upholstery.
