Decorate A Bedroom With A Black And White Comforter

Black and white comforters are often seen with zebra prints.


A black and white comforter transforms your bedroom with a graphic, contemporary flair or adds a simplistic and elegant ambiance. Since black and white both coordinate well with most colors, it is not complicated to choose accessories and fabrics that create the theme you have in mind. Whether you prefer abstract designs, animal prints, stripes or floral, the black and white comforter provides the perfect focal piece for the bedroom area.


Instructions


1. Paint your walls in a white, pastel or silver-gray accent color if you want an elegant, classic look in your room. Use a bright or bold paint to give the room a graphic or abstract appeal if you prefer a modern style. Hot pink, lime green, red, a sunny yellow or royal blue are just some of the options available for the bold color.








2. Trim the baseboards and around the windows with a bright color if you are afraid that the accent color will be too bold on the walls.


3. Hang wallpaper or a wallpaper border with a black and white scene or pattern to accentuate a comforter that is solid black or white with just a small amount of solid black or white trim.


4. Purchase a bold colored headboard if you want the bedroom to have a contemporary look. Another alternative is to use a bold, solid color for the bed skirt.


5. Mix the patterns for your bedding and drapes to create an eclectic or cozy look in the bedroom. For instance, if the comforter has black and white stripes, add throw pillows and draperies in a floral black and white or toile print.


6. Invest in simplistic black and white pictures to hang on your walls if you want the bedroom to have an elegant ambiance. Use simple black frames for the pictures. Black wrought iron designs look attractive with the black and white comforter as well.


7. Set accessories, such as sculptures, a flower vase, lamps and other decor around the room either in black or white or the other accent colors you chose. This balances the room and creates visual flow.








8. Purchase a soft rug to lay beside the bed on the floor. Choose the pattern in a print that complements the theme of the room, whether it is an abstract design or has a classic look.
