I’m really excited to share how I decorated our second bedroom! My husband and I moved into a 2 bedroom apartment last April which is about twice as big as our old apartment. I’ve been trying to decorate the whole place but it’s been a slow process. My husband doesn’t really care about home design. He’d be happy to sleep on a mattress on the floor and pick up furniture off the street (seriously – that’s how he’d been living before we got married!). So I don’t get to spend a lot on home decor or furniture. 
I recently convinced him to buy a pull out couch for our second bedroom. Since we don’t have quests that often I want the space to be more than just a bedroom. This grey Ikea couch had been on my wishlist for months. So I was really sad to see that it was discontinued at every Ikea store! After a lot of searching we found the pull out couch on craigslist for $200 and I won an eBay bid for the grey slipcover for $150! So this $900 couch cost us about $450 after you add in gas and renting a van to pick it up.
Everything else in the room is from Ikea, West Elm and Target. West Elm can be a little pricey but I got all the pillows on sale with coupons! 
The last thing to add to the room is some artwork! I recently won a $250 gift card to Minted.com so I’m using that money to buy some nice art prints. But I need some help! I can either do one big print over the couch or a collage of prints. I’m leaning towards the black dot one you see in the room collage. But I love some of the colored prints too. 
What do you think? Which print is your favorite?

  1. The grey calculation would look really nice with the room or the printed feathers would add a nice bit of color. I really like the striped rug you picked out.

  2. I would put it towards a Lady Day coat. I have always wanted one, but they are so far out of my price range it's not even funny. Thanks for the chance.
