from my room
10.19.2011
I woke up this morning and looked around my room. I knew something there was different about it, but I couldn't put my finger on it. And then I realized, oh wait, the piles of clothes are gone, cleaned up the day before. Yes, that's how bad it was. I should really get a grip on my messy nature.
No long rambling thoughts today, no insightful analogies on life or my roller-coaster emotions; just some shots from my room (because if it's clean, it should be documented). My decorating style is a bit of an eclectic mishmash -- part modern, part vintage, part southwestern, part kitschy. Most of the pieces in my room I've either found in our basement, thrifted, or repurposed. I'm satisfied with it at the moment, though; it screams Carlotta, and I feel at home each time I walk in. It's my haven, my own little corner of the world.
Also, I would like to say that it's getting down to thirty one degrees (fahrenheit) tonight and the warmth of the heater greeted me when I walked into the house tonight. Fall has officially arrived in Oklahoma.

I love your room! It's beautiful! Especially your bed. <3 And your decorating style is lovely.
ReplyDeleteI really, really love the look of your room, Carlotta. It just seems so peaceful and interesting! Definitely some inspiration to keep in mind when I finally get around to redecorating my own bedroom. :)
ReplyDeleteI love your room, especially the feathers on your wall. The shot of your shoes all lined up is really cool. :)
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me...I need to clean my room.
oohhh great room...I was just looking into buying a vintage camera like yours...I have seen many at antique stores!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! I love your bedroom - it really does seem exactly like you.

your room is so cute! i love the shot of you shoes.
ReplyDeletei wish i could decorate my room more. it's hard to do when you share... :)
I love the feathers and hearts. You and me? we're on the same boat. My room doesn't deserve to be lived in with it's current state.
ReplyDeleteyour room is lovely! my sister and I share a room, so I don't necessarily have "my own little haven." but I'm not complaining, because I love having a good laugh with her before falling asleep. (:
ReplyDeletealso, this reminded me of you: http://pinterest.com/pin/353771661/
I sometimes wish I had a wood floor. I don’t know what it is about wooden floors, but they’re so wonderful. Your Frank Sinatra photo is so fab. :) I love his music.

Eep, your room is so lovely. And clean. Something my room is sadly lacking.
ReplyDeleteThose hearts next to your bed are especially beautiful. ;)
Beautiful photos, Carlotta!! I absolutely adore it, it's so you!

ReplyDeletecute!
ReplyDeleteYour room is so beautiful, Carlotta! :)
ReplyDeleteWe have the same lamp, except that mine's blue. Random, but true! (:
ReplyDeleteYour room is so clean and really nice, Carlotta! Beautiful furniture and decorations!!
Mishmashed rooms are always the best. A room needs to be "you". Looks like a lovely space! I love the combination!
ReplyDeleteOh, how lovely! I love the stands of hearts on the wall. :)
ReplyDeleteLove,

Very, very... What was the word I was looking for? Oh wait. Your room is too cool for words! :) (Cheesy I know)
ReplyDeleteooh, i love how it's so vintage + creative. i share a room with three younger sisters...let's just so i love them, but it gets messy. too bad i'm a neat freak.
ReplyDeletethe pictures are sooooo pretty Carlotta.the pictures of the feathers are adorable
ReplyDeleteWow! I love your room. Did you design it all by yourself?

Carlotta, I love your mixed decorating style. I don't really care for rooms that are completely modern, or completely vintage--my style is a combination of vintage/ pottery barn modernish/adorable.
ReplyDeleteOh, and I love the picture of your shoes lined up in a row--so cute :)

Those feathers are so cute. Yeah, my room is pretty much a mish mash of everything!
ReplyDeletepillow is cute. I must admit I could not sleep beside a cow's head. not only would I not be able to, but nor would I have any appeal to that. just my opinion.;) I do like the picture of your grandmother :)
ReplyDeletei love how by seeing someones room you can tell so much about someone. great pictures!
ReplyDeleteyou have a really cool room! er... reminds me i need to go clean mine /:)

ReplyDeleteI quite love your room. I've got books, old cameras, and waldo-esque glasses on my dresser, too. ;)
ReplyDeletetwin sister.
Your feathers are amazing, its just like you...I mean what I know of you from your writing. :)
ReplyDeleteLove this! Lovely photos. I adore the dream catcher - I have one that is very similar to yours in my room. And timber floors? Yes yes yes!!! :) Love them!
ReplyDeleteThis is so amazing! I am about to redo my room (provided mom and dad agree;) and this is really inspirational! I'm thinking of going with brown and turquoise..... So thanks so much for posting!
