Bedroom Oasis

as previously mentioned, the end of august is bringing me another move to another apartment. moving is basically the bane of my (and everyone’s, no?) existence, but i’m trying to overlook that part of it and get excited about a new place to decorate! while i’m not planning on getting rid of much of anything since i just bought a lot of my bedroom furniture and decor a year ago, i am anticipating a little bit of a change. currently, my workspace is in my bedroom, which works since i have the master in the apartment so there’s plenty of space for everything. more than likely, i’ll have my workspace elsewhere in the next place, so i’m looking forward to my bedroom being only a bedroom.
with that, i’m hoping to add a little more of an earthy and natural feel. i’m thinking natural wood accents, galvanized metal details, and some cool paint colors on some of my existing furniture. i want my bedroom to be my oasis, so to speak, since it’s where i will go to relax and unplug from work. i have quite a bit of color in my existing room and i’m thinking i’ll keep the color for the workspace and my bedroom pretty neutral (maybe a few pops in some prints). 
here’s what i’m using as my inspiration board:
glass jars: H&M (big, small) | blanket: Wayfair | lamp base: Target | metal pitcher: H&M | rug: Wayfair | glass box: H&M | woven basket: World Market | metal basket: H&M | pillow covers: H&M (left, right)
really, it’s pretty simple. i have quite a few accents and all of the base furniture i need to create something like this for the room, so it shouldn’t be difficult. here’s to hoping it turns out how i’m picturing it in my head!
