Home Tour: My Romantic Bohemian Style Bedroom

December 12, 2013 By Sage 3 Comments

Today, I’ll show you a few photos of my romantic bohemian style bedroom in Denmark, which is “soverværelse” on the floorplan. I’ve always wanted a home with a laid back bohemian vibe and I got it in this crooked old apartment with its shabby edges and the secondhand treasures I’ve used to furnish it. It really has been my dream home!

Pretty much everything in my bohemian style bedroom is secondhand… the dresser and night table are a part of a vintage Bali-Hai bedroom set that I bought at an auction in the States for $70 in 1999. The set also includes a vanity chair, which you can see in the bathroom and a second night table, which is to the right of the dresser and not visible in the photos. The buddha statue on my dresser was my grandfather’s, it’s a vintage piece from the 1950s and I’ve had it forever! The chair, lamp, and throw pillow are all Danish thrift store finds, which gave me exactly the romantic bohemian style bedroom that I wanted… and it all cost next to nothing :)

I would’ve loved to use a tapestry on the bed, but Scandinavian winters are frigid and they use duvets instead of top sheets, so I opted for a vintage floral print duvet from IKEA. I’m not a huge fan of IKEA, but when in Rome ;-)

I’ll also miss lying in bed and looking at the stars, which are especially lovely in the clear, cold, winter sky.

A few weeks ago, I was stargazing late at night, and I saw a shooting star…

I’ve also posted photos of my bathroom, living room, studio, and kitchen, which have also been decorated in keeping with my bohemian style bedroom using mostly secondhand vintage finds :)

    I love it! So in most places, do the sellers leave the furniture? I sense that from watching HH International all the time. Glad you can take it. Hope it sells soon.

    Stargazing in the comfort of your own bed, that is a dream come true!

    Enjoy your last days in this lovely home that you created.

    Thanks, both :)

    Barb: In Denmark, the usual practice is to take the furniture, light fixtures. window treatments, etc. (things cost a king’s ransom here). But as in the US, these things are sometimes used in negotiations. Anything that’s not velvet or fringed is up for grabs ;-)

Once upon a time, I had the chance to move to the happiest country in the world!

My restless Aries spirit liked that idea, so I did what any girl in my position would do… I grabbed my cat, booked a one-way ticket to Denmark, and became an expat!
