Heritage – bedroom flooring and lighting plan

April 17, 2012

I cut the wood flooring for the bedroom. I was able to cut the entire room from one sheet of pre-made walnut flooring, which was a pleasant surprise. I had thought I would have to piece it from two sheets. I like the rich color of the parlor, so I decided to use the same stain, English Chestnut by Minwax.

Before I can actually apply the wallpaper, I need to plan the lighting layout for the room, including three table lamps. I’ll use my usual faux outlet technique.

I have the vanity light on the outside wall.

I decided these Heidi Ott lamps were the best match for the bed and the overall décor. Even though the Heidi Ott lamps are huge, they are the perfect color and the clear glass makes them the right visual weight.

An elegant Ray Storey ceiling light will add a soft glow.

I have the battery operated light for the dresser in the front corner. This is a rather dark photo, but the lamp has a gunmetal finish.

All of these lamps will complement the vintage feminine ambiance of the room. :]
