When we moved to the beach, I had such a hard time deciding what to use in the master bedroom. The room was painted a buttery yellow, with glossy white trim. I first thought of a print with yellow and white…then I thought I would bring in another color…nothing seemed “just right”. My daughter kept suggesting “an all white” theme. I just couldn’t visualize the results. After many trials and errors and returning quilts and duvets to HomeGoods, I decided to take her advice. I hate to admit it, but she was right. The “all white” was exactly the look I wanted. I don’t try and match the “whites” exactly, I think the subtle shades add to the look….What do you think??? The plates over the bed I also found at HomeGoods!
1. What a beautiful room! I love the all white bedding and butter walls. So fresh and relaxing. The beautiful bed looks like an antique. The plates are a perfect touch. Thanks for sharing your lovely room.

2. This room is beautiful! “The Shades of White” makes one conscious of how beautiful white continues to be. I really love the wall decor and the character of this handsome bed. I also like the variation in lamp styles, that match the bed.
Great room!

3. White on White is always pretty when done like this! I love the plates behind the bed–not so much behind the lamps–The bed is beautiful…..
Curious-what color is the floor? And what kind of window treatment?SUZANNE

4. Thanks Suzanne….the floors are carpeted in a basket weave sisal, sort of an oyster white. On the windows, I also did white…the are “cutwork” panels from “Country Curtains”. I hung them using a large deorative rod (white also) and white rings…..It made for a very crisp coastal look…..
Thanks so much for your kind comments!

5. Your room looks very peaceful. Yellow is one of my favorite colors! White was an excellent choice. I like that the lamps are not matching yet matching!!!
