  • Yankee Chic Bedroom
    young san francisco-based designer chloe warner is inspired by colorful, classic interiors from the 1950s and 60s. when decorating a client's pacific heights bedroom, warner was motivated by what she calls mid-century "yankee glamour" — her own unique interpretation of that era with a mix of clean-lined modern furniture and dashes of old school floral prints. she used specific elements seen in alfred hitchcock's visually stunning 1959 thriller, north by northwest: the sleek upholstered bed, the chintz curtains juxtaposed with mid-century-style side tables and the dynamic flowering branch painted on the wall. warner — a graceful blonde beauty like eva marie saint who stars opposite cary grant in the movie — explains, "my former business partner, jen aldrich, painted the mural, which is taken from the groovy curtain fabric exactly. the idea was to envelop the bed in three dimensions, as if the tree organically becomes the curtains." here, we help you get the look with eco friendly furnishings and treatments.blooming window treatments to capture a yankee chic vibe, think east coast sensibility circa the '50s or '60s and drape your bedroom windows in feminine yet bold, graphic florals like this 100% organic cotton upholstery fabric from rubie green. if the abundant yardage needed for full curtains is a bit too extravagant for your budget, consider this punchy print for smaller key pieces like a headboard, a bench or a slipper chair. sleek snoozing spot the sleek, tailored lines of the roberstson bed are a bit more masculine and keep a bedroom with floral prints from becoming too girlie. happily, it's available for order in a variety of solid fabrics. order the bed "naked" in plain white muslin and have it custom-upholstered to compliment your curtains. they call it mellow yellow fresh as a daisy, hemp basics' no-nonsense solid yellow hemp is a great complimenting counterpoint to the lush rubie green floral chosen for our curtains. it's cheerful, in keeping with the spirit of our inspiration room, and offers versatility. alternatively you could order trial fabric swatches from williams sonoma, but keep in mind that computer monitor colors vary. so no matter where you're buying your fabric, it's essential to first order a swatch or even an experimental yard to see how the fabric looks in the light of your home. simply sophisticated sheets clean, preppy and unpretentious, the crisp white organic hemstitch linens echo the look used on our yankee chic inspiration bed. like cary grant, this bedding is impeccable and never goes out of style. think pink accents if you want to brighten up your bedroom add splashes of raspberry in the form of throw pillows and blankets. for a luxe fabric choice to do it yourself, consider kazvin solid 100 percent silk from the high-end fabric house beacon hill. this sophisticated fabric has a very grown-up mad men-era vibe. yankee swank, if you will. it is available in 90 different hues, so you can be adventurous with fuchsia or select a more muted shade similar to the colors found in the curtain fabric. luxe lattice under your feet wall-to-wall carpeting with an all-over geometric pattern provides a luxe 1960s feel. the bonaire ii pattern is timeless, unfussy and available in a sunny shade — autumn blonde — that compliments the "marilyn" curtain fabric. add a side of vintage an elegant but slightly spartan bedside table is pure yankee and quite pragmatic. the absence of frills is a nice counter-balance to the floral fabric at the windows. shop local and haunt your neighborhood flea market or thrift shop for a vintage side table with similar lines. while this table has a white top, a stained or painted finish will work equally well. channel your inner artist whether you opt to try painting the striking mural freehand or prefer to use a stencil, asymmetric flowering branches add an organic 1960s touch above your bed. both the natura and aura paint collections from benjamin moore are appropriate for walls, dry fast, and are available in myriad colors. if winging it with only paint and a brush intimidates you, there are wall stencils available online that can serve as a guide — we like bluebird panel no 2 and cherry blossom for this look. and of course, another option is to visit your local arts and crafts supply store and see what goodies might be offered there.
