Bedroom Blooms
So, after working on my fluffy pom poms for a while, I thought I’d share our beautiful bedroom blooms…
I’ve always liked pom poms, but after seeing Ashley’s adorable nursery, I just knew I had to recreative a similar vibe in our bedroom. The pom poms are hung with clear fishing line and attached to a frame constructed of wooden dowels. Once we hung them above our cozy vintage “fireplace”, I was in love.
The pom pom cluster was the first step in creating this whimsical bedroom nook. Now that they’re complete, I have to get crackin’ on rounding up more books to fill my fireplace.
87 books didn’t make a dent…

I’m a little over half way, so if you know of any good (cheap) book sources let me know. I can’t wait to get it filled and be able to sit back and admire our dreamy little love nest.
What’s “blooming” at your house this weekend?

this is SO ADORABLE!! I love it. p.s. the fireplace of books is looking great 🙂
This looks absolutely incredible. I admire your patience, talent, and eye for pretty things. It's all perfect and the colors are lovely!
That's just wonderful! I love the poms but I love the fireplace more! Goodwill and salvation army by me has books for super cheap, that are similar to what you have in there now.
This is so beautiful and i love the details on the fire mantle!
Wow, love it all. I am your newest follower.
i LOVE this so much. i want to make them to go above my desk.
Love this…the colors are so beautiful! Happy to have found your blog! Xo, Katie
I love this and I really want to hang one of my own. Are you able to give a little more detail in the dowel frame for hanging? Thanks in advance!
Hi GiDu – I purchased wooden dowels from Hobby Lobby. (The ones that are about 3-feet in length.) I used two dowels for the "long" sides of the rectangle and cut one dowel in half for the two shorter sides. I then secured the ends together using a rubber band and hung it from the ceiling with twine. Hope this helps! 🙂
Wow, this is fantastic! Would you mid sharing where you got those honeycomb poms from?
Kayla – I believe I bought the honeycomb globes from Factory Party Direct (http://www.factorydirectparty.com/8-ivory-honeycomb-ball.html), however it looks like that color is currently out of stock. Boo!
Thanks so much for the info! I love it and I am inspired to make one of my own! 🙂
Love it, inspired to do it myself for my master!
Swoon! Your books make me smile!
I bought the poms! I wonder though, did you get ivory or a different color lantern?They look peachy to me!
Thanks 🙂
Hi Nisa!
The lanterns I bought were called “ivory”, however they do have a slight tint of “peach” to them. When the lantern is collapsed (which is how you will receive it in the mail), you will notice the edges of the paper are colored a rusty red color. I think this contributes to the “peachy” color when the lantern is assembled. Hope this helps!
hi i love the pom poms! somehow i can’t link to where/how you made them or bought them (except for the one honeycomb link) – but how did you make all the other ones? i want to do something similar.. i just discovered your blog and site through pinterest and i love it! happy for you that you quit your day job and are going for it with your creative passion. thanks!
