Turn a humdrum bedroom into a place where you feel like you're on vacation. Lounge on a sandy beach surrounded by palm trees swaying in the breeze. Perhaps you're a true-blue cowboy and would like to hang your hat on a Western-themed wall. Get your creative juices flowing and choose a theme for your bedroom. Here are ideas to get you started.
Rustic Retreat
Who says you need to go to a secluded cabin in the woods to enjoy the rugged beauty of the outdoors? Turn your bedroom into a rustic retreat. Furnish the room with rugged log or pine furniture. Use earthy colors, such as red, brown, forest green, black and cream in your decor. Adorn your bedroom with woodland friends, such as bears, moose and deer. Drape your bed in a cozy rustic-themed comforter and snuggle in for a peaceful night in the woods. Just watch out for the bears that might stop in for a visit.
Island Getaway
Decorate your room with lush palm trees, bamboo and lots of bright floral. You'll feel as though you've stepped into a tropical paradise. Hang bamboo shades on the windows. Adorn shelves and tables with sea shells. Hang island-themed wall art on the wall--or, paint or stencil tropical scenes right on the wall. Plenty of bedding, furniture and accessories are available to purchase to complete your island getaway. At fanimation.com, you can even buy a ceiling fan shaped like palm leaves.
Secret Garden
Bring the beauty of a flower garden inside and create a secret garden bedroom. Whether you like bright yellow sunflowers, pink and lavender tulips or colorful roses, create a color palette for your room from your favorite flower bouquet. Adorn the room with garden-style furniture, such as wicker or rod iron. Drape silk ivy on shelves and around the window frames. Stencil flowers on the wall and on white wood furniture. Top your bed with a floral bedspread and lots of coordinating throw pillows.
Wild West
Howdy, pardner. Put on your cowboy hat and get ready to design a Wild West bedroom. Choose Southwestern colors for your bedroom, such as such as red, orange, turquoise, green and brown. Furnish the room with rustic wood furniture, or pieces with a Western theme. For a real cowboy accent table, go to BedroomFurniture.com and purchase the Hidden Treasures Old Western Rifle Accent Table. Hang cowboy hats, horseshoes, pictures of Wild West scenes and old wooden signs on the wall. Add a touch of whimsy with a cowboy boot lamp. Hang denim curtains on the windows and dot the room with desert-loving plants, such as cactus.
