I am thinking of ways to decorate around this dresser It is for a bedroom and I do not want the matching bed frame, or a bed frame this color. I am going for a boho feel. Lots of beige, whites, some plants. Any ideas?
With Boho style, you can certainly mix woods, styles, various textiles. This dresser is very simple. An ornate mirrior above it might be a good choice. Unmatched night stands would be good choices. Or you could use a small chest or table instead of nightstands.
Your bed or headboard could be virtually anything that you fancy. A brass or metal bed would be pretty Boho.
You can use blues with your green dresser. I love using blue and green in a room. But Boho should not look too coordinated.
But it might be fun to paint the room the same color as the dresser. A lot of Boho styled rooms I've seen online have white walls. But I like a bedroom painted a definite color. You should definitely choose a favorite color though for the walls. Surround yourself with the color
that makes you happy.
Even though you are going for a casual look, I recommed repeating the lovely green of the dresser elsewhere in the room in linens, paint or art.
Is that the black/brown? It looked like the Grey one to me. It's a Hemnes dresser from Ikea and is my preferred line since it's real wood under that paint and not just glue and sawdust.
If you don't like the bed that goes with it, you could still get the Hemnes frame and drape fabric over the headboard area. To soften it up, you might also try draping a fabric runner over that dresser.
I can't stand matchy matchy furniture in any rooms except for maybe a dining room table and chairs- even then I've seen great set-ups with unmatching elements. Bedroom suites of matching furniture look especially ridiculous to me, mix things up to create a comfortable and attractive aesthetic.
are you talking about decorating in general or specifically for the bed frame?
In any case, I think a metal bed is a natural fit for a boho look. And of course it goes with any color furniture, no matter what color metal you get. I tend to like contrast so if you were going for an airy look with white bed linens, I'd go with a darker color for the bed frame, and if you were going to for some intense color satuated patterns for the bedding, then I'd look at white painted metal bed frames.

In general. I thought about a rusted gold bed frame. Maybe white bedding with earth tone throw pillows. Beige rug? Not sure what to do about night stands
