A bedroom is where you will spend more time than any other living space in your home. It’s a place where you can create your private haven of tranquility, a place where you rejuvenate yourself after a tiring day at work, and zone out when you must.
A well-decorated bedroom can promote quality of sleep and make you feel ‘at home,’ each time you step inside to relax, sleep, or curl up and read a book after college or work.
Here in this post, we will discuss nine ultimate ways to make your bedroom look more beautiful:
1. A Hanging Light Fixture Instead of a Boob Light
A glamorous chandelier can add drama and romance to your bedroom. Hanging lights normally look great in a bedroom if it’s spacious enough.
Get rid of boob light fixtures in your bedroom. You can get something more contemporary, elegant, vintage, or timeless for a similar price.
2. Rethink the Nightstand
We all love to use the nightstand as a convenient location to place innumerable items such as books, glasses, mugs, cables, hand-creams, etc.
You can rethink how all or some of these items are displayed.
Can you hide a few of them in a drawer? Do it.
If it’s a small room, you may consider a nightstand affixed to the wall.
3. Reorganize and Style the Vanity
A classic piece of bedroom furniture, vanity is the second focal point in a bedroom, after the bed.
A cluttered vanity can make the entire bedroom area appear messy. So, it is a good idea to hide all the clutter in the drawers.
Next, try to style the bedroom vanity a bit.
You can, for instance, get a little creative and see if the following ideas can beautify the bedroom vanity area:
Hang an artwork behind the dressing table or lean it against the wall.
Place two objects of different heights on the table (e.g. a book and a vase).
If the bedroom vanity does not have drawers, use a tray to make the assortment of different objects look purposeful and somehow more beautiful.
If it’s an old wooden vanity that has been passed down in the family for generations, it can be enhanced by a framed black-and-white photograph. Maybe you can try the picture of your grandmother when she was young?
You can use a small vase full of fresh blooms as a focal point. Even three stems (or less) per week will do the trick.
If a gallery wall is already taking up a considerable amount of space in your bedroom, consider arranging the frames around the vanity mirror. Just make sure the overall color scheme looks good.
A bedroom vanity can also function as a nightstand if you are short on space
4. Get Rid of Unnecessary Furniture
If your bedroom is overcrowded with various accessories and furniture items, it can look cluttered even if it’s large enough to accommodate everything.
Do you really need two chairs in the bedroom or eight paintings on the wall? Can you get rid of one furniture item to create a more spacious feeling?
5. Upholstered Bed and Custom Bedding
If you are aesthetically intuitive, you probably know that the perfect bed, bedspreads, duvet cover, comforters, bed skirts, etc. do not come in a bag.
These are custom-made for you.
Custom bedding fits perfectly and is made in fabrics you truly love. You can utilize the services of custom re-upholstery specialists to upgrade your bed so that it offers unsurpassable comfort and becomes the centerpiece in your bedroom.
Expert designers can turn an ordinary bedroom into extraordinary with custom upholstery/reupholstery and bedding; they will fashion a luxurious bedding ensemble that complements your bedroom décor.
6. Stick to One Focal Point
Do not try to cram too many décor ideas into one bedroom. It will only make a bedroom look more cluttered. It does not ensure a restful sleep either. Removing or organizing bedroom clutter is one of the best ways to ensure occupants get quality sleep.
If you have a gallery wall as a focal point in your bedroom, for instance, there is no point having a textured wall with attractive lighting right next to it.
7. Use a Mirror to Bounce Natural Light
A mirror placed directly opposite or adjacent to a window will bounce the natural light around the bedroom.
This will help soften the shadows in many areas around the room that may have darkened the space earlier.
A mirror can also make a room look bigger.
8. Add Color Accents or Patterned Wallpaper to Furniture
You can add patterned wallpaper to your lampshade, nightstand drawers, closet, or drawer. Such color accents can beautify your bedroom a whole lot if you know how to complement the existing color scheme.
9. Bedroom Area Rug
A bedroom area rug does not just save your chilly toes; it also hides dirty-looking carpet stains, works as a noise buffer, and protects solid floors from getting scratched by a heavy bed frame. It creates a comfortable, homey vibe, besides lending a unique style and personality to your bedroom.
You can opt for wool or polypropylene rugs. These are durable and easy to clean and maintain. If your bedroom area gets a lot of sunlight, you may consider cotton or polyester rugs.
10. Add Some Greenery
A potted plant can add new life to your bedroom or transform any room for that matter. Compared to a vase of flowers, potted plants are a better décor option for most people.
