For most people, the bedroom is a space dedicated to sleeping and perhaps getting ready in the morning. You probably barely visit the room the rest of the day. However, that doesn’t mean it is not important or worthy of your best decorating efforts.
The bottom line is that you sleep for approximately one-third of your life. You need the place you sleep in to be comfortable and conducive to sleep.
One of the best approaches to getting the balance right in your bedroom is to keep the walls neutral and use soft furnishings to add colour. This includes the following five options
1. Add A rug
The simplest and most effective way to add a splash of colour to your bedroom is by adding a rug. It can be placed at the foot of the bed, one on each side, or you can even get a rug that your bed sits on.
You can opt for one of these stunning beige rugs here which add texture and warmth without needing to be replaced every season. Of course, you can also choose the latest colour trend. Unfortunately, this means you will probably need to change the rug every season.
If you’re looking for a long-lasting and low-maintenance option for your room, consider the modern design of cowhide rugs. Not only are they renowned for their unique style, but they’re also highly durable and require minimal upkeep. These rugs come in various colors, from classic white and brown to more vibrant shades like orange and red. However, ensuring this style aligns with your room’s overall aesthetic is vital before purchasing. Take the time to carefully consider your options and choose a rug that complements your existing decor and meets your practical needs.
2. Change The Curtains
Another great way to add colour to your bedroom is to change the curtains. This is a great way to go bold and add a splash of your favourite colour. You can change curtains easily if needed to adjust the feel of the room.
Paler curtains will be more conducive to sleeping but bolder ones may be more beneficial to facilitate bedroom activities.
3. Replace Your Sheets
Just as your curtains can be easily changed, so can your sheets. This is a great way to get coordination between the two parts of your room. It can also be used to create contrast and, by owning a selection of sheets, you can change the look and feel of your room in a heartbeat.
4. Use Pictures
Putting pictures on the walls will add colour and brighten your bedroom. But, it will also allow you to add your own personality to the room. Pictures work best if the wall colour is pale or neutral. This allows you to focus on the vibrant colours in the picture and these can make a stunning difference to the space.
All you have to do is choose the pictures that appeal to you and mount them on the wall.
Alongside the pictures you should consider additional ornaments with a sentimental feel, it will help your bedroom to reflect your tastes.
5. Paint One Wall
If you’re looking to brighten your bedroom and make a statement that will last then you should consider painting just one wall in the bedroom. It’s best to keep the other three walls neutral and go big, bright, and bold on the focus wall.
This will become a focal point and it will brighten your bedroom.
Best of all, it is surprisingly easy to overpaint the wall a different colour when you need to.
