Determining art for a bedroom entails the examination of several factors. First, you must consider who will be occupying the room and what his taste and style is. Second, you should consider the colors be used in the art so they enhance the décor in the rest of the bedroom. And you must think about the theme that will be used in the room and create or purchase art that supports the chosen theme.
Murals
A popular type of bedroom art is the wall mural. For a mural as bedroom art you can make a variety of choices. Some companies provide wall murals on large rolled sheets of paper that can be cut and fit to the particular wall. However, many individuals elect to create their own murals, based on the personal preferences of the person occupying the room. If you are capable of creating or painting a design freehand, this process can be a wonderful creative experience. However, if you do not have this type of talent, the wall mural can be developed with pictures from the Internet, magazines, books or any other sources, which you can then copy onto the walls in the pattern selected.
Themes
One method of assisting in the choices for bedroom art is to pick a theme for the bedroom and build off of it as pieces are selected for the room. Yet it is wise to keep in mind the furniture and possessions that are already in the room, because replacing everything can get quite expensive. Therefore, select a theme that can incorporate some, if not all, of the individual's items with ease. Also, it may be these items that can be altered to create the bedroom art that supports the theme.
An example of keeping the same items and creating new bedroom art based on a theme can be found by examining the plain headboard. A simple headboard, for example, can be re-covered in material or repainted to match the new décor.
However, do not forget that the simple headboard can be replaced with a completely original headboard design, using items that you already have around the house. The use of a partial picket fence, a tall bookcase, screens, old shutters, doors or a canopy are just some of the bedroom art you can use in the form of a headboard to alter a room based on a theme.
Knick-knacks, other pieces of furniture, chairs and curtains can additionally be altered to fit with the new theme of the bedroom. With the use of paint, materials and new textures almost any item in the bedroom can become a work of art with a little creativity and planning.
