Bedrooms aren't just for sleeping. In your home, your bedroom is a haven of relaxation, a place that you can decorate to your preferences and truly call your own. Here are some tips for achieving a more beautiful, better-looking bedroom so that you won't just enjoy sleeping in it, but simply being in it.
1. Create a central point -- or focal point -- in your bedroom. Your bed, naturally, serves as the main feature of the bedroom, so place it where it will give off the most pleasing effect. Select the wall wherein the bed will be placed, then arrange your other furniture pieces according to the focal point. You can even try placing your bed at an angle in the corner of your room for more dimension.
2. Make use of side tables and lamps. These add symmetry and a sense of order to your bedroom. Side tables and lamps balance the layout of your bedroom while also serving an important function, as they provide a place for you to set a glass of water, books or your alarm clock.
3. Utilize benches and other seating. Go for multipurpose pieces, such as a trunk at the foot of your bed or a chaise recliner with storage. These are great for storing for blankets while providing you with a place to site while you get dressed. Also, create a relaxing seating area within your bedroom to make it look more inviting and warm.
4. Have a well-appointed mirror. Mirrors can add a feeling of depth and space, especially in a small room. Opt for a mirror with a dresser, or maybe a full-length mirror. These can help add character to your room.
5. "Hide" electronics and functional items in furniture. Or rather, select beautiful furniture that can help keep your television and audio equipment hidden from view, so that you maintain a peaceful aesthetic in your room. Try to look for an armoire or entertainment cabinet that's also a unique accent piece, but also serves a storage purpose. Make sure the finish, color and size fit your bedroom's overall mood and feel.
