How to Create an Eclectic and Cozy Cabin Bedroom

Source: Remodelista “An Eclectic and Cozy Cabin Bedroom”

Today we are diving into the world of cabin bedroom makeovers. Our clients over in Black Butte, with their vibrant and eclectic taste, have inspired us to infuse their bedrooms with a playful mix of old and new. Originally housing bunk beds for their young kids at the time, these rooms are now ready to embrace queen-sized comfort. So, grab your favorite blanket, settle in, and let’s explore how we can create an eclectic and cozy cabin bedroom retreat! 

 

Bunkroom 1

For the first bunk room, we wanted to embrace the charm of eclectic patterns. Schoolhouse Electric has become one of our go-to sources for bedding inspiration! The bedding we fell in love with is called the “Lived-In Linen Striped Duvet.” Its charming stripes and cozy texture add a touch of timeless elegance to the room, while also capturing the essence of comfort. Their collection features a wide array of beautiful stripes and patterns that strike the perfect balance between traditional and contemporary. To create a cohesive look, select patterns of different scales that compliment one another harmoniously. The result will be a visually stunning and vibrant space that showcases your unique style !

To achieve the eclectic aesthetic we envisioned, we sourced the market for the perfect elements. If you’re interested in replicating this look, head over to our @shop.LTK page where we’ve compiled a list of similar (and exact) items for your convenience. 

In the second bunk room, we wanted to make the most of the limited available space. That’s where the genius of wall-mounted nightstands comes into play! Not only do they save valuable floor space, but they also provide a sleek and modern look. Denver Modern offers a range of wall-mounted nightstands that perfectly fit the bill, seamlessly blending functionality and style. 

When it comes to bedding, we understand that vacation time should be spent enjoying yourself, not fussing over making the bed 😉 That’s why we recommend keeping it simple yet delightful. Try to opt for high-quality bedding that ensures a comfortable and restful sleep. To add a touch of personality, choose one big, fun accent pillow that reflects your playful side. Citizenry offers fantastic options with their vibrant colors, bringing lively energy to the space. And, they’re on sale!

CLOUZ HOUZ TIP: When it comes to transforming a space, paint has incredible power! In these cabin bedrooms, we opted for a subtle color palette that enhances the bedding and furnishings. Two of our personal favorites are Farrow & Ball’s Pigeon and Farrow & Balls Dead Salmon. They effortlessly blend with the overall aesthetic, creating a soothing atmosphere that allows the furnishings to shine. Remember, paint can really breathe new life into a room, so don’t underestimate its transformative abilities.

Bonus Room

The bonus room is truly a multipurpose haven for both guests and kids. It’s where movie nights, reading sessions, and relaxed lounging all come together. The corner queen bed from Pottery Barn Teen is the ideal spot for unwinding and catching up on your favorite shows. The design inspiration for this space comes from Raili Caulsen, one of our favorite designers. Her use of stripes in the bedroom image we mentioned adds a retro vibe that we absolutely adore!

In an effort to add a touch of whimsy and charm to the room, we discovered a remarkable mountain scape mural. Spanning the entire wall, this black-and-white mural creates a sense of wonder and adventure. It’s the perfect backdrop for a cozy and inviting atmosphere that will captivate both kids and adults.

Additionally, we stumbled upon a beautiful blanket that caught our attention. This special collaboration between Anthropologie and Anthal not only provides warmth and comfort, but also supports a meaningful cause. With each purchase, you contribute to empowering women – a fantastic way to add a philanthropic touch to your cabin bedroom.

When life gives you lemons… you make lemonade. 🍋
But for us, it wasn’t just a saying.
For over 20 years, I had been designing our homes… but when Derrick lost his job, everything shifted. What felt like everything falling apart was actually the beginning of something new.
After years of being a stay-at-home mom — the role that meant everything to me — I stepped into something completely unknown and started my design business. I was terrified.
Somewhere along the way, Derrick and I found our rhythm, and what started as helping each other turned into building something side by side… Clouz Houz.
And then… we did it again.
We left everything familiar and moved to Tennessee, starting over in a place where no one knew us. No reputation. No safety net. Just a dream… and a lot of faith. And if I’m being honest, it’s taken more grit and determination than I ever imagined. Because starting over midlife hits differently — when so many around you are slowing down, you’re asking yourself to dig deeper, push harder, and believe bigger.
There have been moments I’ve questioned everything. Moments that felt heavy, lonely, uncertain.
But also moments that feel like… this is it. This is the life we fought for.
“Life is Short. Make it Beautiful.” came from one of those turning points — when we realized life wasn’t going to wait for us to feel ready. So we chose to begin. 
Again.
And in this season of rebuilding, I’ve found myself being pulled toward something new… a different way of sharing what I’ve learned, what I see, and what I love.  It’s stretched me in new ways — and in some ways, it’s been unexpectedly therapeutic.
I can’t wait to share more soon. 🤍✨
Office reveal… but also a little life update.
We’ve been working from this space behind the scenes, and it finally feels ready to share. This is where client projects come to life…where we’re sourcing, planning, and building what’s next for both our Oregon projects and the ones we’re beginning here in Tennessee.
Oregon will always be home for our work. Our roots are there and very much staying, but we’re excited to now be creating in Tennessee as well, while continuing to serve clients nationwide.
We have three project openings this summer and are currently taking on new clients in both locations.
If you’ve been thinking about starting a project, you can inquire through our website…we’d love to work together. 🤍
What started as a “simple” fireplace update quickly turned into one of those classic renovation plot twists.😅 
Here’s how it actually unfolded:
1. Planned to install tile over the existing fireplace tile — that was the original vision.
2. Began demo and discovered some serious structural damage to chimney. Immediate pivot.
3. Tore in further and uncovered the original brick hiding underneath.
4. Brought in the mason to re-mortar and clean everything up.
5. The brick went from dusty and rustic to bright red and very classic — and yes... I freaked out a little.
6. Lived with it for a bit to see if I could make peace with the new look.
7. Ultimately we applied a watered down lime grout (what was used by mason) to give it that old-world imperfect feel again.
8. Polished/stained the original stone hearth to refresh it without replacing it.
9. Stripped down the fussy details from the wood mantle and surround.
10. Painted the mantle and reinstalled it — and finally, it all felt right.
Renovations rarely go exactly as planned, but sometimes uncovering what’s underneath leads to something better than you imagined in the first place.
Omg this kitchen is so close I can feel it😭
The brick floors are in, the character is there, and the countdown to actually cooking in here (aka retiring the air fryer + constant takeout era) is officially on.
This one detail alone is making everything feel real and lived-in already... And I can’t wait to see it all come together.
If you’re into kitchens with soul + old-house energy, save this for later!
