Decoration Ideas For Maple Bedroom Furniture

Add antiques, such as a maple television unit, to your space.


Maple isn't a very formal wood, so if you're investing in maple furniture, create a relaxed oasis in your bedroom. Think more cottage or bed and breakfast relaxation than high style, as with a darker wood. However, if well-built, maple furniture is an investment you will have for many years.


Hardware


Stainless steel hardware might go well with contemporary bed sets but a maple set requires something more traditional. Brass works well with maple, as does brushed gold or even a porcelain hardware set. You might also consider wooden hardware for classic and simple appeal.


Bedding








Plain white crisp bedding of high-quality cotton is a traditional look for your maple bed set. Add subtle color with beige, light blue and yellow pillows; the colors provide a subtle pop of color. Another option for bedding is a traditional quilt. If you're crafty, you can make your own quilt with your choice of fabric.








Accessories


Add a quilt rack to your room as well as a fluffy occasional chair. Look for a chair with more traditional lines in a rust, brown or tan; this will complement your maple set. Other accessories include lighting. Weave basic white and cream lamp shades throughout the room with a light on an occasional table and lights on each side of the bed.


Textiles


Curtains and rugs are critical textiles in any bedrooms. Add a pop of color with a rust colored rug or keep things simple with white or cream rugs. A rug on each side of the bed, in a smaller size, as well as a runner-style rug in front of the bed add style and function to your room. Curtains in a tweed material give stylish texture, but not too much, to the room. If you're craving a pop of style, add tartan curtains.
