Get the Look: A Victorian Bedroom
After researching Victorian-era bedding for a recent Ask Casa post, I was inspired to pull together an entire Victorian-inspired bedroom.
Traditionally, Victorian bedrooms included a bed, armoire, washstand, and dressing table, and dark woods such as mahogany, rosewood, and walnut were favored. Floors were covered with small rugs that often featured floral motifs, in color combinations such as blue and pink or red, green, and gold. Wallpaper was also a common feature. I've rounded up some suitably Victorian choices for the bedroom, and added choices such as lovely, elaborate mirrors, and silver picture frames to complete the picture. You can go all out and take Victorian literally in your decorating scheme, or pick and choose a few patterns that you adore.
