What's over your bed?

We bought a new bed a few weeks ago. We had a set of 4 metal art pieces hung over it, but they too large now, so I need something new to hang over the bed. It's a king sized bed, so something pretty big. I don't really want to look for art, because the colors are so specific (olivey green paint, yellow and white duvet) and I feel I already have enough of those colors in the room. It needs to be something more neutral, ie black and white.

I'm thinking maybe a different metal art, a gallery set of picture frames, maybe a set of b&w canvases. What's hung over your bed?

  • A wall decal with a saying

    similar to this

  • This is ours:

    The space there is pretty small though, so I only needed 8x10 frames to fill it.

    Do you have pictures of your room? Maybe you could frame some b&w photography with a nice mat around it?

     

  • Maybe some frames like this:

    Or a mirror like this:

    I don't know if you have a Kirkland's near you, but last week they were having a major sale. I got 2 huge mirrors for $30 each.

  • Sara- We originally bought a quote wall decal, but it's too small. I think we may put it over a door.

    Rach- I thought about a set of b&w frames, maybe even 3 pics from the wedding or our travels. Hobby Lobby has frames and mats on sale this week.

    I have pics of our bedroom, but before the bed. It's a wreck right now, and I'm too lazy to get up, clean it, and take pics. I just want to click things and call it productive.

  • I don't have anything hanging over my bed so I'm no help, but I freaking LOVE that tufted bed. It looks SO comfy.
  • A mirror. Oh you don't mean on the ceiling???  ;)

    LOLZ -- thats the first thing I thought of too.....

    We just bought a wrought iron headboard for our bed this weekend - the designs are pretty intricate, so that's enough glam for above the bed IMO...

  • I'm no help either. There's nothing above our bed. We have a pretty wrought iron headboard as well. I'll probably figure out something to put over there (our bedroom is pretty bland) once I get the walls painted and window treatments. Nasty white elementary school roll blinds and brown paneling don't lend themselves well to interior decorating. Huh?

  • Our bedroom is bare now - no artwork or pictures yet so I will be begging for help once I get it cleaned up!
