Every room in your house has a specific function, and the bedroom has the most important one of all – to allow you to rest and gather energy for new challenges. It is very important that the room reflects its function with its décor. Your bedroom should be cozy, soft and pleasant to be in, as well as relaxing for the eyes and free of all modern day distractions. If you are looking for ways to update your bedroom décor and make it a true resting oasis, we will help you with that.
Go for Neutral Color Scheme
Highly saturated hues are tiresome for the eyes and they can increase anxiety and thus worsen the quality of your sleep and rest time. Pastels, greens, lavender and subtle blue hues are recommended for the bedroom, but you can skip all those complications and opt for an entirely neutral room. Not only will they be soothing for your eyes, but also easy to decorate.
Add a Gallery Wall
A stylish gallery wall may be just what your bedroom needs in order to reach its full potential. We usually decorate focus walls only in our living rooms, but there is no reason not to include them in your bedroom, as well. All you need to do is choose a perfect place for it. Placing it directly in front of your bed can be a bit conspicuous, while setting it behind your bed may be completely useless. Therefore, display lovely and subtle artwork on some of the walls on the sides of the room, and wake up to your favorite pieces each day.
Headboard Makes All the Difference
A well-chosen headboard might be the thing you need to bring the whole room together. It creates a visual focal point and makes the space look truly finished. You do not even have to invest in a whole new frame; just decide for a separate headboard. The size and the material will depend on the dimensions of the room, as well as the prevailing theme and fabrics throughout the bedroom.
Change Your Linens
Changing your sheets regularly goes without saying. However, opting for some new linen can be just what you need, especially if you are decorating your space on a tight budget. Choose bold patterns or rich colors that will truly make a difference in the room.
Update Your Bed
The bed is a quintessential element of your bedroom, and any update done on it can only contribute to improving the room ambience. Choosing a comfy king single mattress will make resting and sleeping a lot easier. Additionally, if you add a stylish canopy, your bed will become a true oasis of peace. A bed bench is another interesting way to improve the appearance and functionality of your bed.
Create a Seating Area
A large bedroom could benefit from a cozy seating area. It can be an ideal place to drink your morning coffee, eat your lazy day breakfast, or curl up with your favorite book. Speaking of books, you can take the seating area to a whole new level, by creating a full blown reading nook.
Add a Dressing Table
It is a win-win investment – you will clear up some space in your bathroom and you will be able to get ready in your room instead of waiting in line for the bathroom to be empty. Also, incorporating a vanity can add your bedroom a touch of hotel-chic, making it more sophisticated and luxurious.
Hang a Statement Chandelier
If you want to add a bit of glamour to your bedroom interior, do that by simply installing a striking and elegant lighting fixture. Depending on your overall décor, you can decide for an antique crystal chandelier or a wooden ceiling fan (if you prefer the naturalistic style).
Your room is just a few steps away from becoming a peaceful oasis you have always dreamed it will be. Do not give up now, and start redecorating as soon as possible. Sleep well, rest often.
