3rd in a series on Tuscan Decorating
An authentically designed Tuscan bedroom maintains the simple, natural Tuscan country feel.
Look at the photo above:
- The floors are tile in this photo, although a wood floor also would be appropriate. Throw rugs made from natural materials could certainly have a place here as well.
- The walls are white (or cream), with minimal accessories.
- The ceiling in this room is wood and beam. Other options would include wood beams on a stucco ceiling, or just plain unadorned ceiling.
- The lighting is in keeping with the room, simple and functional. An iron base would work well, with a shade that is not too elaborate.Antiques are good; track lighting is out.
- Bed linens and coverings are white or light colored and made of cotton. Almost every bed cover in Tuscan bedrooms is a Matelasse, which is a cotton jacquard fabric.
- The furniture is wood and iron with marble and tile accents. Although we can't see the headboard in this photo, it is most likely black wrought iron.
- Pictures and accessories are kept to a minimum, with family photos in metal/antique frames found in most in authentic Tuscan style bedrooms. Artwork will most often consist of botanical prints.
