Inspire A Bedroom Decorating Idea

The inspiration for your bedroom could come from finding the perfect bed.


When decorating a bedroom, the design choices are unlimited. Between color choices, design style, artwork pieces, bedroom furniture choices and furniture placement, a person can become overwhelmed and intimidated. Ultimately, the bedroom decorating process becomes easier if you start with one solid design inspiration. Once the inspiration is found, your choices immediately become more concrete and narrow, making the decorating process less complicated. Find your inspiration to develop the bedroom of your dreams.


Instructions


1. Research bedroom decorating themes. Use online sites, magazines or even the neighbor's bedroom to find your inspiration. The theme you choose will affect all aspects of the decorating process, from picking furniture to the color of the bedding. A country theme needs country decor and a modern theme needs modern decor.


2. Look outside the box for color choices once the theme of the bedroom has been decided upon. Use art pieces that you love and pull your color directly from a piece. Use a color wheel, the garden or your car to find the colors that capture your heart. Use the colors that go with your theme--light and airy for romantic country bedrooms or dark and warm for traditional bedrooms. Limit your colors to one main color, one intermediate color and one or two accent colors.


3. Go to furniture retail stores to look for the right style of furniture to go with your theme. The retail floor showcases bedroom sets and will help you get the right ideas for your bedroom.


4. Talk to professional decorators to help you figure out your own design aesthetic. They are trained to draw on personal inspiration and they can help you narrow down your own tastes before you try to go shopping for your bedroom. You need not hire them to decorate for you, but just utilize the experience they have already developed. Paying for a consultation might stop you from making costly mistakes in the long run.
