So, I'm trying to decorate our bedroom (on a shoe string budget).
We are newlyweds with very different styles. My husband is an avid outdoors man and hunter.
While I love the outdoors I don't want to live in a hunting lodge.
In an effort to keep all of his hunting paraphernalia in one room I'd like to put it all in our bedroom. (keeps it out the parts of the house where guests would be)
He's got several paintings, drawing and pictures of hunting scenes, two mounted deer heads, one mounted elk (it's huge) and one turkey tail. Along with some carved ducks.
What I'm thinking is doing it like a 50's style lounge meets hunting lodge. Think along the lines of if Frank Sinatra had a weekend hunting lodge.
I'm thinking putting all of the photos and "heads" on one wall. Maybe paint the wall a silvery pale gray or a pale blue. Either leaving the frames the mismatched woods that they are or painting them all silver or white.
Painting the other walls either pale blue or maybe white. I thought I could add silver vintage elements (maybe paint some of the wood ducks silver).
Maybe use chocolate brown as an accent?
Any opinions or suggestions?
Do you think this could look neat?
Help!!!!!
