Toile Bedroom

Here's a beautiful room that's also beautifully easy to replicate.

Begin with cream-colored walls and plain carpet or hardwood flooring. Next, a gorgeous toile fabric outfits the upholstered (or slipcovered) headboard and bed skirt. Luxurious white bed linens top off the sleeping space.

A pair of wall lamps is a good way to offer light without taking up any room on the nightstands. In each corner, white armchairs fill the need for places to sit. Prints, books, and accessories round out the room with simplicity and elegance.

See the full list of room elements below.


What You'll Need
  1. Bed
  2. Headboard: either upholstered or slipcovered in toile fabric
  3. Box-pleated bed skirt made from the same toile fabric
  4. Pair of nightstands painted black
  5. Trio of framed prints to hang over the bed
  6. Pair of wall-hung lamps
  7. Pair of upholstered slipper chairs in white
  8. Bed linens in white with black borders
  9. Accessories: plants, books, pillows
