Need ideas in upgrading your bedroom? Browse through this san diego bedroom furniture gallery and you’d wonder why you haven’t upgraded your bedroom for a long time.
I prefer comfortable rooms myself with a touch of contemporary style. My idea of a perfect bedroom is one that devoid of clutter, uses earth tone colors with a touch of red or blue on the furniture, a nice huge painting that complements the color of the room and a walk-in closet. So when I saw the Valerie bedroom set below, I wondered if someone has been reading my thoughts. It’s very close to what I have in mind. You can buy this Valerie set at www.jeromes.com for a total of $2,049.99 but you can also choose from their package combinations or buy them per piece.
Aside from contemporary styles, I also like this Manor bedroom set with carved wood and rich cherry finish. It reminds me so much of bed rooms in dream vacations that I see online. It has a rustic and romantic feel to it and being a hopeless romantic myself, I can see myself having a bedroom like this. If I have the budget, I’d go for this one instead of the Valerie set.
Our neighbor is installing a mailbox similar to whitehall mailboxes that I’ve seen online. My first thought was how it really upgrades the exterior look of someone’s house. I guess it also helped that they have a huge, carefully trimmed front yard, matching the mailbox perfectly. The only thing missing is a couple of lounging chairs to complete the look.
Anyway, our house doesn’t have a mailbox yet. I never thought we’d need one what with the age of computers and Internet but no. We still receive loads of papers, catalogues, snail mails and billing statements. These things tend to get wet when it’s raining and worse, some of them get lost. But if ever we’ll get one, I really like the designs of whitehall mailboxes at mailboxixchange.com. Our house will probably look so much better and our letters more secured. I also like how you can put your family name on the mailbox, as if stamping your grounds with your identity. The prices for whitehall mailboxes range from $270-$418. A bit on the expensive side, yes, but consider that this is designed to stand all kinds of weather. It is crafted of die cast rust free aluminum, and finished in a weather resistant powder coat paint to make it look fresh and new in the next 10 years or so.
I admit I’m never the type who goes for modern furniture. But just recently, my husband sent me some urls of the type of furniture that he likes. We were trying to upgrade the look of our bedroom and work area so we we’re browsing online for ideas. I was surprised to see that almost all of his suggestions are leaning towards modern furniture. I never thought he’d like stuff like the one on the photo below.
On our latest out of town trip, I saw a chair similar to the sofa above in the entertainment room. While waiting for my husband to finish his game, I’ve decided to try it and was pleasantly surprised that it’s very comfortable. I thought it would be very hard and give me back aches but it actually supports my back way better than cushioned chairs. Still, even if it’s comfortable, I just don’t see modern furniture working in our bedroom. We’ll have to change everything from lighting, lamp, dressers and bed. Speaking of bed, I’m willing to go the modern route if I can have everything in this photo at a cheap price.

I’ve been a constant visitor of iVillage.co.uk since 2003. It started when we were moving to my mother-in-law’s house and needed to upgrade the other master bedroom for our own use. It was only my husband and I back then. No little girl to mess up the decors and furniture yet so I have full rein on giving the room a total makeover. I daily check websites about interior designs, makeover TV shows, paints, furniture, cheap deals, etc. This was when I got addicted to iVillage. The Home & Garden section is a wonderful resource for homemakers who are always on the budget like myself. It features DIY stuff, gardening tips, remodeling areas of the house, handling pets, pest control (though I have to say that issues like this should be left with professionals like Terminix), cooking, cleaning and maintenance, and my favorite - a huge photo gallery of design ideas. I noticed that DIY is all the rage now making me wonder if people in the States either have super powers or they don’t have much to do. I for one can’t even juggle my work from home gig and parenting my now 2.5-year-old toddler.
