Inspiration photos. ALL from Pinterest. Be still my heart. Side note: I don't know how to give credit to the original site where these came from...does that matter? Am I gonna get in trouble? Clueless about this stuff...do I have to link to the original author? Anyways...all of these images came from Pinterest, so at least that's out there. I love these bedrooms, you will see many a upholstered headboard, symmetrical nightstands/lamps, benches at the end of the bed...so serene.
