Decorate A Bedroom With Cherry Furniture

Create a warm rich atmosphere by decorating your bedroom with cherry furniture. Cherry wood is a sturdy wood with a classy looking red shine. Use these tips to decorate a bedroom with cherry furniture and create a room you'll want to spend time in.


Instructions


1. Decide how much cherry furniture you want in your room. You can create a room full of cherry wood or a mix of different types of wood.


2. Pick light or dark-colored cherry depending on which shade suits your decor. Lighter cherry wood appears more modern than darker cherry. Dark cherry has a more sophisticated look.








3. Choose from types of furniture like hope chests, toy boxes, computer carts, book cases, chests of drawers, night stands, corner shelves, desks and beds.


4. Pick a paint color that lightens up the room and contrasts with the cherry wood like off white, cream, beige, neutral colors or earth tones. Darker colors can make the room appear dark next to the color of the wood.


5. Cover the bed with a brown, rust or orange colored comforter with matching pillow shams, a bed skirt and curtains. Choose from luxurious, patterned covers or deep solid shades to create a warm elegant look.


6. Choose a color that contrasts with the red wood like a shade of blue or green for the bedding and window covers. Then paint the room a bit lighter than the furniture coverings. Add floor mats in similar colors to break up the darkness of the room.
