We have the privilege of having our own room at the family River House. We spend as much time there as possible and do our best to chip in with the housework and exterior maintenance. Now I'm working on the fun part, and began by designing a mood board for the room. It all started with the 7 dollar midcentury modern nightstand (# 10) that we scored from Goodwill (along with some sweet beer steins). From there, we tried to find a matching piece of furniture and managed to find an almost matching dresser at the antique store in town. We wanted to maintain a simple, Michigan inspired, slightly beachy vibe, so we picked out the striped nautical-ish bedding from West Elm and the streamlined white lamps. Still on the list is some Michigan inspired artwork, white drapes, pillows and DIY decor (mirror and wall hook).
