Choosing What To Put Over the Bed

If there is one thing I know about myself, it’s that I am very slow to make decisions, and quite often overthink myself into decision paralysis.

One example of this indecisiveness is with my bedroom. I’ve been looking for something to put over our bed for years. Finally, I found, not one, but two options I am excited about.

OPTION 1 – Crate & Barrel’s Sunflower Mirror

OPTION 2: Wisteria White Antler Wreath

In my search to find something over the years, a version of each these have come up as options, but when I finally went looking for them on the web, the original sources no longer sold them. But with the new fall products rolling out in retail, both Crate and Barrel and Wisteria came out with a version of just what I was looking for.  At the same time.

Then came to the hard part. Deciding which one was the “right” one. I put quotes on that, because really, there is no “right” answer, but the way my mind works, the second I put one up and I knew it wasn’t the “right” one, I would be in all kinds of inner turmoil about my decision. So I figured I would put my rudimentary Photoshop skills to work in helping me decide.

Below are are the two options I liked mocked up above my bed.

OPTION 1 – Sunflower Mirror

OPTION 2 – White Antler Wreath

Do you have a preference? I was surprised as to how quickly my favorite choice jumped out at me. I liked OPTION 1 better. The gold in the mirror really added a nice reflective surface, and the gold tones against the aqua blue walls is perfect. The antlers over the bed fell a little flat to me.

Are there certain areas of your house that leave you with decision paralysis? This might be a good option for you. I know I am thankful to find out which I liked better with just a little computer work before I spent any money. Now…just to wait and watch for the right sale so I can get it!
