Christmas In The Bedroom

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving surrounded by the people you love the most! We had a great day, the four of us visited my SIL and her husband, and we all enjoyed a delicious meal.🦃

Fridays are when our Home & Decor Encore group gets together to share beautiful inspiration from our archives, but that's not happening today. We skipped this Friday, knowing that on Black Friday, most of you will be too busy to stop by. Instead, sharing my recently decorated Christmas bedroom would be a good inspiration for those of you who could make it here.

Another holiday's over, and here we're so ready for Christmas! On our way back home yesterday, the neighborhood was bright and cheery. So many pretty Christmas lights already on! 

I was excited to start holiday decorating a few weeks ago. But somehow, after bringing up a few boxes from the basement, that happiness turned into an overwhelming feeling with the huge mess I created.  My office and living room are still waiting for some magic to happen there, but the mudroom, family room, and my bedroom, which I'm sharing with you today, are done. :)

While cleaning my bedroom, inspiration struck thanks to a video on Instagram shared by my friend Ashley @attemptsatdomestication - Well, I loved it so much that I tried to do something similar, and this is how it turned out:

I only wish it were that quick and easy! :)

Most of the décor pieces are items I already owned, except for the duvet cover, which I recently bought over at Ikea.

I love all the mood the lights and the dark wall bring to the room.

The star string lights were bought at Target about two years ago. 

Two of them hang from a nail in the center and cascade to each side of the bed.

The big star was another Target find from last year; the most challenging part was disguising the battery compartment. If you look closely, you can see it there to the left of the star, covered with black tape.

Did you notice that Mr. Dapper maintained great posture even when I jumped on the bed? 

I thought he was going to fly away!  

Nope. 

Not him. Too elegant to do such nonsense. :D

A cozy throw blanket is always within arm's reach here in the bedroom.

Lights and even more lights! 

They bring the coziness level up a notch.

How's your holiday décor going? 

After seeing the neighborhood yesterday evening, we are now in a hurry to also add lights to the outside of our house. I gotta see who's willing to string up those lights this year. ;)

Have a great weekend!
