Each week, we take an Insta-worthy room in Ireland and show you how you can get the look yourself with high street buys.
This week, Niamh Griffin Torpey’s (@you_me_and_a_semi_d) bedroom was our inspiration.
“I knew I wanted dark bedroom furniture and dusty pink and earthy toned accessories, so that’s how I started and worked from there,” says Niamh. “I am still adding things and changing bits all the time but I think that’s all part of the fun of interiors and decor.”
Once you have a good base (ie wall colour and floor), you can totally change up a room with just a new bedspread, a few cushions and a simple throw.
H&M, TK Maxx and EZ Living were Niamh’s main ports of call when fitting out this room. Below are six high-street products that’ll help you get this look in your own home…
1. Embroidered cushion, €14.99, H&M
Adding unique cushions to your bed, as Niamh has done, is an easy way to update a plain duvet cover set – and add some lightness to a darker colour scheme.
2. Velvet cushion, €13, Next
The navy and pink colour combination on Niamh’s bed works really well.
3. Cosy throw, €29.99, Littlewoods
A soft and cosy throw adds a luxe feel to any bedroom. Add texture by layering this over another throw or blanket as Niamh has done.
4. Rattan lamp, €29, Ikea
We love Niamh’s rattan lampshade, and this Ikea version would work perfectly on a bedside table.
5. Eucalyptus print, €9.95, Desenio
Niamh has created a mini gallery wall effect above her bed with a trio of different, but complementary, prints. Follow suit, or opt for just the one.
6. Geometric rug, €19.65 (£17.99), Wayfair
Make the most of floor space by adding a printed rug in a matching colour to tie everything together.
