Beds & bricks

Every time I search the Net for pictures for a blog post, my search somehow morphs into something completely different. I was looking for pictures of rooms with multiple chandeliers, and I came across this bedroom:

I love the combination of the softness of the bed against with hardness of the brick wall, and the glamourous crystal chandelier against the rustic brick. I also love the warmth and texture of the brick.

So this sent me off on a tangent looking for bedrooms with brick walls…

 

I love the look of pendant lights or mini-chandeliers hanging above night tables…

More brick walls & pretty crystal chandeliers…

This brick niche is cool — bet it looks pretty at night with the candles lit.

This bedroom has a nice casual elegance to it. A pretty chandelier would be the perfect finishing touch. The bedding looks like Willow from Amenity.

  

Love this one. The dark four-poster bed stands out so nicely against the whitewashed brick. Nice texture on the bedding, and a pretty & unusual chandelier…

An upholstered wall next to a brick wall…

The wood ceiling adds even more warmth and texture to this bedroom… nice combination of industrial and rustic too.

Whoever sleeps on this side of the bed better be careful not to get a face full of brick flipping over in the middle of the night!!

This framed square of brick looks great just as it is. But it would also look great with a piece of artwork – either a cool abstract painting or an interesting object (but no deer heads, please!!)

Even though the brick walls in these rooms are painted white, they still add texture to the spaces. (I just realized — this is the same room decorated two different ways!!)

Do you like the look of a brick wall in the bedroom, or do you prefer to be surrounded by softness??
