Make Your Bedroom Look Wealthy

Choose throw pillows for your bed that are covered with velvet, silk or satin.


If you're trying to make your bedroom look wealthy, your may conjure up a variety of images based upon some of the luxurious bedrooms you've seen in the past. You can use these ideas to help you put together your ideal wealthy-looking bedroom, which will combine elements from these luxury rooms as well as from rooms that exist only in your imagination. With the proper mix of color, furniture choice and decorating style, your bedroom will take on the look of luxury and wealth you desire.


Instructions


1. Paint the walls with a quality paint and do more than one coat. Choose Asian-inspired lacquer paints that give the impression of quality and wealth. Create an accent wall by painting it another color than the rest of the walls in the room. This becomes the backdrop for your bed and your art display.


2. Hang fine art. Avoid framed posters unless they're collectible. Buy oil or acrylic paintings from the local gallery and choose art from an up-and-coming promising artist that's developing a following. Also look for original sculptures in materials such as copper or bronze.


3. Choose expensive materials such as velvet, leather, silk and satin for your bedroom. Lay a velvet or satin bedspread on your bed. Place a leather chaise lounge in the corner. Hang silk curtains on the window.


4. Select colors that people have traditionally associated with wealth like purple, because in ancient days, purple was the color of royalty. Choose purple throw pillows for the bed, look for a bench for the end of the bed that's covered with purple velveteen or cover the back of an armchair with a purple satin throw blanket.


5. Buy high quality items such as antiques or designer decorating brands. Look for complete bedroom sets and purchase extra accessory items such as a vanity table with mirror or silver or gold-framed mirror and sconce sets.


6. Create a sitting area. Position two comfortable armchairs next to a coffee table made from expensive materials such as an Art Deco table with a silver inlay or a glass-topped table.
