When you decorate any room in your house, one of your key considerations will always be what sort of ‘feel’ you want the room to have. This is never more important than when choosing the décor for your bedroom. Do you want your bedroom to feel romantic? Sexy and vibrant? Relaxing and calm?
Making this decision will help you to decide on your colour scheme straight away. For a romantic bedroom, a French bed or just a white bed with some kind of drapes hanging down from the ceiling (perhaps a white organza or gauze) will give the room a beautiful focal point. Use soft colours like pale pink or blue or keep it white and add lots of soft furnishings like silky pillows in brighter colours like deep purple.
For a sexy, vibrant look to your bedroom, go for bolder colours like reds, purples or even blacks – put your feature colour on one wall only, or in the alcoves if you have a chimneybreast in your room, and keep the rest of the room light if you only have a small bedroom (since dark colours can ‘shrink’ a room). Team the colours with as large a bed as you can afford and cover it with a silk throw and lots of pillows.
For a calm, relaxing bedroom choose pale blue, white or pale green. Patterned wallpaper is fine as long as the colours are soothing and the rest of the room is kept simple and plain, with the treat of a luxury bed. Oak beds look great in this style of room.
All your decorating won’t disguise storage issues, so if you want your room to look its best then consider buying somewhere to put all your excess belongings so that your newly-decorated room isn’t spoilt by clutter. Storage beds are great for this, since the additional storage doesn’t take up valuable space elsewhere, and you can choose bedding that covers the base to suit your chosen colour scheme easily enough.
Whatever you do when decorating your bedroom, make sure you do a good job. Make sure that your wallpaper lines up properly in its pattern and that all the edges meet properly. Make sure you don’t miss a patch with your paint, and make sure you add enough layers of paint to cover all the old colour. Because you’ll be spending a lot of time in that bedroom and if you’re struggling to sleep any bits that aren’t perfect will be all you’ll be able to look at!
