Hello! Today I wanted to share pictures of my bedroom with you. I don't think I have ever shown you this room, so here goes...
I didn't do any major redo on this room, just made a few changes recently and basically got rid of the "clutter" that seemed to be accumulating...does that happen to any of you?...where your bedroom winds up being the dumping ground for all things cast off or unwanted from around the house??? Well, that's what was happening in our room and I wasn't liking it! So I reclaimed our bedroom...
The beautiful vintage French ticking pillows on my bed are from Dreamy Whites...
...and the lovely "dream" pillow is from Melanie's wonderful shop Lettered Threads...
Our room is a mix of light and dark...with my love for whites as well as some beautiful darkwood family heirloom pieces that my father in law lovingly restored a number of years ago making it into the mix...
I love this vintage toolbox...I use it to store some of my jewelry as well as the contents of my husband's pockets :)
These old shutters are from England and I love how they balance the whites and wood tones in the room! I used some vintage seem binding to hang pages of an 1800's French play that I had {you know my love for vintage French papers!!}...
My husband sits here when he needs to work on his laptop at home {I cleared his "mess" away for the picture :) }
I'm hoping to find a farm table to fit this spot instead of the table that I have there now...keeping my eye out for one at the flea market...
***There is still time to enter my giveaway below***
Have a fabulous weekend and thank you for stopping by!!!

Wow, what a gorgeous bedroom! I love how you have used the whites and the darks to play off of each other. It is so warm, romantic and cozy.

this is lovely.....i love the shutters and that you hung something from them that you love.
Absolutely serene and beautiful. Great inspiration for my master bedroom, as I'm getting married in September and want to make it a nice inviting space. Great job!
Hi Tracey~~~your bedroom is right out of a French magazine...brings back memories of my time in Paris with my late husband. LOVE it!!!
Debbie@houseatthelake
Thank you so much, Tracey!:-)Such a wonderful surprise to come for a visit and see such lovely photos of my pillow!
Your room looks gorgeous!!! I have a mix of light and dark as well and sometimes I wonder if I should changed it but something keeps stopping me. Seeing your room in its' beauty makes me realize that I should just let it be:)
Enjoy your weekend!
Melanie
btw.. Maria's pillows look beautiful in your home!
not every husband would sit on a chair such as this ...
we're blessed with these guys in our lives who "get it"
AND I am blessed to have seen this in person the day of the fifi shoot ... T...it's lovely and serene ...
Very beautiful! I like your mix of light and dark. There are so many nice and unique touches in your room!
What a beautiful, peaceful and serene room. I like that you didn't paint everything white, but balanced it with natural wood. I love white, but like the contrast with the warm wood tones. It just seems to anchor a room.
What a dreamy post....just one of the most romantic bedrooms ever...how do you get any sleep tee hee!
Your bedroom is so beautiful and I have to say I am guilty of making my bedroom a dumping ground for my cast offs too, it really bugs me that I do this and every time I clean it I promise myself not to do it again but it always happens (; I just cleaned it out recently too!
Beautiful - just like every room in your gorgeous home!
Your room is lovely, simple and so serene looking... very well balanced out with some of the dark mixed in with the whites... LOve it!
Have a Great Day*
So inviting and beautiful!...
Absolutely gorgeous. Can you tell me what color the walls are. I love that shade of blue, it's perfect! ;)
Oh Tracey it is too gorgeous! My room is too pitiful to ever share but now you've motivated me to finally take control.
Love it all!!
T
Just beautiful, love the pillows, thanks for mentioning where you got them!
Love those shutters too!

I keep wondering why no one has snatched you up yet to be a photo stylist. You are the best and to think...this is a real room!
Love the juxtaposition of the dark against the light. Makes me rethink some of my family pieces and I appreciate you showing me how to make them work.
Girl...you are such a talent!
Debbie
Your bedroom is beautiful, peaceful and so inviting. You have a wonderful way of decorating in an undecorated way.
I have been looking for the exact kind of bedding!! Where did you find it? I love the whole room-want to move right in!
please enter me! thanks so much

Tracey, I think your bedroom is one of the prettiest I've ever seen on a blog. I love the whites and pale blue.. it reminds me of the colors of your French Larkspur look. This post is the first one I opened up today and it is just what I needed to begin my day.. pure tranquility! :) Yes, we have the clutter build up thing going on in our master bedroom.. my walk-in closet seems to be my dumping ground for all things I need to put up and away and my husband Frank has to have a CD player on his night table - he can't sleep without playing his relaxing CDs like pan flute or chant. Be sure to check out my last post on my blog.. I think you'll be interested! ;) Your bedding and pillows are very beautiful.. yes, where ever did you find that comforter? I hope you are staying cool and comfortable in this heat we are having here Tracey. Take care!
Love,
Lara
absolutely gorgeous!!
so pretty! I need to get mine finished
Hi Tracey,
I soooo love your bedroom. I myself a beachy style bedroom but also love the vintage style!!!
So much inspiration. I am sure you wake up very happy every morning. Love the way you give it such a personal touch.
Hug,
Rozmeen
This is such a gorgeous bedroom! I am soo jealous! Very great inspiration! Have a lovely day :)
~Kiri
Just gorgeous, Tracey. It really does look like a magazine. Love the mix of light and dark. The tall chest is truly a work of art!
xo,
Debra
BEAUTIFUL AS ALWAYS :)
Your photos are beautiful. Especially the lights in a row and the windows/shutters. Find them beautiful! And many pillows on the bed .... love it!
Best wishes, Ilona
Your bedroom is beautiful! White but still worm and cosy. And I love this old window frames!
Your bedroom looks so beautiful!
Wonderful images!
Have a nice day,

Tracey your bedroom is just gorgeous! If mine looked like that I would NEVER leave so it is probably good that it doesn't!! lol
Absolutely stunning!!
Blessings~
Your bedroom is so gorgeous, peaceful, and calm all at once Tracey! I love every single thing you have in there...totally my style.
-marie
I'm so glad I stopped by this morning! This is just the inspiration I needed to get my bedroom going....I like natural woods with whites - it brings a certain 'mood' to the room - and your shutters are one of my favorite things I've seen in your decor thus far....I have a pair just like them that are only 2 feet high - and I also have a jewelry box that is really on old wooden tool box! funny!! it's so nice and de-cluttered in your room (and yes, I SO get you what you mean about the 'catchall' place!)
wonderful room!!!
Your bedroom is simply stunning! It is soothing and serene and beyond beautiful! I've been working on reclaming my bedroom this summer but I'm no way near posting pics just yet! Thanks for the insiration!
The piece your FIL refurbished is exquisite! It is beautifully highlighted by the dazzling whites! FAB!
LOVE your blog!
Blessngs!
I so hate my bedroom now. In fact after visiting here I hate my whole house. How about a trade? I just wish that I had 1/10th your talent.
What a gorgeous bedroom you have created. It is beautitul...great job!
Hi Tracey,
Your bedroom is stunning! I love the calmness generating from this beautiful room. I too just cleaned my bedroom as it was accumulating much more "junk" than I wanted. Thanks for sharing your wonderful room with us.
Jeanette
Your bedroom is absolutely beautiful. You have just the right mix of white with dark woods to ground the space. The chippy shutters and french papers are lovely.
Your photos are amazing! You have a great eye. Gorgeous!
Oh Tracey your room is gorgeous! It's so true, we pay the least amount of attention to our bedroom. It shouldn't be like that, you did a fabulous job on your room, no detail was skipped. I love all the personal touches, perfection in my eyes!
XOXO
Kristin
What a lovely room, the light bleu with all of the white, so peace- and restfull!
Marijke
Simply beautiful, Tracey. I would love spending time reading on a rainy day in such a lovely room! Although I have a feeling I'd adore your entire home!
The walls look like a really soft blue and then in another photo a soft blue-grey.
Oh wow, I am speechless, your bedroom looks gorgeous! Wow!
Your home is stunning and I really would like to make a post about it, could it be right for you?
Hugs
Federica

Love your bedroom! So calm! I love the vintage french book pages...do you know where I can find some letters written in french? www.threepixielane.blogspot.com
Oh my goodness....its a good thing I adore you chicky.....this is soooooooo stunning...puts my bedroom to shame!!! Love that bedding,ruffles my new favorite thing in the world!! I meant to ask you do you think you will be getting any more jdarc things into the shop...have they cleared up the shipping problem...I am going through withdrawal and need to order something from you soon!!!! Love this post as always...talk soon! x0x0x
I just love it! Soooo cool and airy and charming!! WOW! I just can't get enough of these pics! They're amazing!
Hi Tracey,
Your bedroom is just lovely!! Everything is beautiful, and all the little details make it PERFECT!
I love the way you've mixed the rustic elements with the more delicate feminine ones...just what I LOVE.
Have a wonderful day!
Hugs ~ Jo :)
What a soothing retreat! I have a similar blue on my bedroom walls.
Hope you'll stop by and enter my giveaway.
Hi Tracey,
I was just thinking last night how I need/want to do a few changes to my bedroom ... so it looks just like yours! :) Yours is the most beautiful bedroom I have seen yet -love the mix of finishes, the feminine and the rustic, the ruffles and the pretty lamps. I just adore your sense of style and how it looks so naturally beautiful. I love those little pillows ~ filled with lavender? I was going to make myself some but I'd rather buy pretty ones like yours ~
Thanks for sharing your room with us - it's just what I needed for some ideas.
Sarah
It's lovely. In our house, we are trying to keep our bedroom for mommy and daddy only. The kids know not to bring any toys and leave them in there. We hope to create a place we can escape from the difficulties that life can toss our way.
Beautifully light room. I particularly like the dark wood chest of drawers - and I know what you mean about clutter. I have a bedstead and hide it away underneath out of sight!
Absolute perfection!
xoxo Beth
So peaceful! I love all the highs and lows. You do such great things!
xoxox
Char
Your bedroom is unbelievable!!! I would love mine to be like that! Your family heirloom is outstanding & think it sits so well in the room! Love it all :)
What a gorgeous bedroom; it should be featured in a magazine! Really, Tracey, it's so dreamy & pretty:) I've been feeling the same way about my bedroom...that it's become a "dumping ground" ; told my husband this winter I wanted our room to get a makeover! And now I have a little extra inspiration {your pictures are fabulous}.
P.S. I do have an old window hanging over our bed, too...what is about those old chippy windows we love so much!?
I just love the pages hanging in the shutters, so simple and sweet.
You have done a wonderful job getting back to the heart of your room.
Our dumping room is the dining room.
I just hate that as soon as you come in the house whatever you have drops there.
I am on a mission to make this stop.
Have a great week
Amy
Your bedroom should be in Romantic Homes magazine! Gorgeous.
xo, Sherry
Such a beautiful, serene space, I love it! And yeas, my bedroom does seem to become a cluttered catch-all as well! :)
Well, I am officially hooked on your blog! Gorgeous bedroom. I know exactly what you mean about clutter. We have an 'office/craft area' within our bedroom that is getting out of control. I love the serenity of your room. Truly inspirational. Thank you for sharing your lovely home.
- Susan from Massachusetts
Restful and beautiful. Love your dark chest.~olive
It is so pretty. A peaceful respite. I like all the light coming in. It's definetly not cluttered anymore! My closet is the place that accummulates the clutter of the home...and the garage. Our cottage is almost always clean and airy but go into our garage and you've entered the dump! Thank you for sharing your bedroom with us.
Oh my gosh Tracey! I love, love, adore what you did with those shutters! Can I steal that idea? Pretty, pretty please? ;)
Just stunning....You are a very lucky girl to own such beautiful things... I received my Jeanee d Ark today... Thanks Tracey....
Oh, how heavenly! I love it!
Love the frames hanging on the wall!!! Beautiful! xo Joan thepottingshed-anythinggoeshere.blogspot.com/
Your bedroom is so lovely. I love the dark pieces mixed with all the whites.

You have created a peaceful and serene resting place Tracey...just the right mix of things to make is personal and not overdone. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
Really lovely!
:)
Tracey,
Your room is very tranquil. Love the mix of light and dark.
Tracey it is such a lovely room! I adore those shutters. The little metal drawers too.
Always a beautiful place to visit.
hugs
Tracey, I like that you've included some darker pieces with the white. I think it's nice when there are men living in the home, too! And, I think it lends balance....yin and yang and all that sorta stuff! Those shutters are amazing.
xx Suzanne
Thanks for sharing your beautiful bedroom. I love it.
Tracey.i really like your bedroom...........nice pictures as always.............love....Ria...
Hi Tracey, you definately have a beautiful bedroom! Simply stunning! That old toolbox looks perfect in there, who would have thought, I think I may on the look out for one now!! I love how you have some dark pieces of furniture in there too, they make the white and the blue pop out more. My bedroom still needs to be done, not sure which way to go yet, but I hope it turns out 1/2 as nice as yours. You've done a lovely job.. take care, Maryann
Your room is so beautiful, a true inspiration for me to create a restful getaway room for us. Thank you for sharing! Theresa
Amazing Tracey, yes I agree, I have the same problem with our bedroom, a total dumping ground but now it seems to be spreading out the door too! LOVE that dark wood chest of drawers SO beautiful.

Adore everything...but I love that toolbox...great idea! I always come away with a new idea everytime I visit you sweet one...thanks once again. oxoxo
A lovely room; how I wish for that amount of room. The toolbox was quite a find and it looks perfectly at home.
Your bedroom is just dreamy! If it were mine I would have a very hard time ever leaving it!

Just love, love, love your bedroom and yes mine ends up as a dumping ground too, glad to hear it's not just me that happens to.
Donna
Your blog is so beautiful I love it!Your bedroom reminds me a little of my mine (of course yours is so much nicer) only because I have the two dark wood pieces and have the white end tables next to my bed but my rod iron bed is black but have been planning to paint it but haven't had the time yet!!!
Lovely redo! I love mixing dark and lite, very inspiring room.
Marcie
Thank you for the tour ~ what a beautiful haven!

Breathtaking!
Hi Tracey,
I love your beautiful bedroom and the mixture of the white and dark.
Also how gorgeous the little tool box and the shutters are.
I hope that you are having an enjoyable weekend and the sun is shinning.
Hugs
Carolyn
...ah!...so fresh & relaxing!...Thanks for the inspiration!
I love your sweet touches- the pretty details. The little tool box is amazing. I always want to go treasure hunting after I see the things you decorate with.
I have posted my giveaway- stop by and sign up if you'd like.
Wow-love your bedroom...makes me want to re-do mine! :)
it's just beautiful, that tool box is fantastic! enjoy your weekend!! susan
Love, love, love your bedroom! Every wonderful detail, Tracey.
Serene is the word I would use to describe your bedroom. It's very lovely. That tool box is fantastic and I love the color you painted the room. So many fabulous details to mention!
Thank you for letting us peak into your dreamy bedroom! I adore the bedspread. Is it from Anthro? Hope this room in in Fifi's new book!
tracey, your bedroom is beyond. i do believe i commented already... but i'm hear to say it again... and tell you ... oh my gosh... LOVE your somerset life article...
happy weekend...xxo, kim
Beautiful. Dreamy. Serene. I'd love to have just one room in the house like this, but it would never fly with my family.
I know what you mean about the bed room being the dumping ground, especially after my shows, and just before company comes, or holidays arrive.
Thanks for sharing with us!
Love your room, so romantic and beautiful!! I also love that adorable ruffle cover for your chair, do you know of someone who sells those? I've been searching for one but have had no luck and I'm thinking buying it would be better than trying to teach myself how to do it :)
love every little detail
do i say that each time?
anyways, your room is gorgeous
i love how you hung the papers, so sweet.
Tracey what a beautiful bedroom....but I wouldn't expect anything less from the rest of your house! I love it all...but I especially am in love with your chair with the ruffled pillow. This is a very romantic room. Thanks for sharing. Stacey
I love the dark woods in the mix...it truly grounds the whole room. Lovely.
Tracey - you are such an inspiration to me. I just love your bedroom. I fell in love with the Reve pillow immediately, so I hurried over to Lettered Threads and ordered one. :)
Have a wonderful day!
xoxo laurie@heavens-walk
I love your style. I may need to borrow some of your ideas. I knew I saw the window frame over the bed somewhere and couldn't remember where. Now that I found you again I became a follower and added you to my blog list so I won't lose you again.
Have a great day! La
Hey there....just got in after a long day and got my magazine....thank you soooo much,going to walk over to my sisters now and give her a nice surprise! Thank you too Tracey for all the lovely goodies....your such a lovely friend! x0x0
