Bedroom Decorating






by Rich Greene


When decorating a bedroom, keep under consideration that the end result should produce a disitnct and remarkable impression. Colours, space and decorations all set a bedroom's mood, and when put together well, can make a definite, pleasurable look.

When it comes to the arrangement of items in a bedroom, symmetry is the most important factor. The bedroom is your private space and should not be cluttered with too many objects making a claustrophobic effect. For a room to seem private, special touches should be added that reflect your special loves and interests. This includes your favourite colors, books, pictures, and so on. Make sure colors are balanced in refined shades reflecting your way of life and interests.

The older generation seems to prefer more subdued shades than the younger generation, who go for bright, textured colors. To maintain balance, the color of a chair placed at one end of the room can be repeated on throw, pillows or carpet. Furniture in the bedroom is of uttermost significance. Don't over do it with too many pieces making your bedroom look overdressed and cluttered. The scale of the bed should be in proportion to the scale of the bedroom. What matters the most is comfort. Therefore , a bed should offer high quality, comfort and a sense of finesse. Nightstands or side tables should be on both sides of the bed for books, medications and telefone.

A dressing table turns out to be handy for ladies, and dressers with tons of space for storage are perfect. Sufficient closet space is critical, as are mirrors and wall decor. Mirrors help to give a room a bigger look and also help to reflect light. Lighting should be gentle and relaxing. Valence lighting is ideal for bedrooms, and colored lights may be employed for extra effects. Delicate light gives a passionate feeling to the room, and focused light is good for detail work like reading without worrying someone sleeping in the room.

Eventually, a bedroom should be well-ventilated, designed for comfort and always stocked with a vase of flowers for a fresh feeling.
