Looking to change up how your bedroom looks? Maybe these stylish bedroom decorating tips can get you off on the right foot. Your bedroom is a reflection of how you want the place to be. You want to make sure that you prioritize comfort above everything else. After all, this is the part of your home where you want to relax after a long and busy day.
While you want to make this place as comfortable as possible, you’ll want to incorporate your own sense of style as well. Choose materials, colors, patterns, shades, layers, and accents that you really like. Balance all of these elements out to design a bedroom that’s soothing, but not too bland — artistic, yet not too overcrowded. Here are a few things to get you started.
Choose Subtle Shades

First, you’ll want to define the color scheme of your room. Try to stick with subtle shades that are calming and ultimately not too overwhelming at the sight. When it comes to incorporating this type of style, your flooring can significantly make or break the bedroom’s overall appearance and mood.
A good tip is to go for dark word-look colors that exude a peaceful, down-to-earth feel. Try to pick accents or elements that can truly bring out the vibe that you’re going for, whether it be your wardrobes, cabinets, side tables, and the like.
Use Low-Height Furniture

Look at the bed in your room. You may be wondering if there is a way to make it more fit for modern times — and no, it’s not just about changing your bedding or pillowcases. Instead, take this opportunity to invest in a new set of bedroom furniture.
Low-height furniture, in particular, is suited for bedrooms because they help you maximize space without actually doing anything to the dimensions of the room. This is a great idea especially if your room has low ceilings. They also make your room appear cozier and more contemporary, with the aesthetic appeal that they bring.
Incorporate Decor

You don’t know just how much a simple decor can already breathe life into your bedroom. If you’re not the type to put up works of art, then you may want to change it up a bit with paintings, murals, or any other wall ornaments.
Although contemporary elements work well, it also won’t hurt for you to choose traditional art. Try to find a piece that will really suit the vibe that you’re trying to achieve for your bedroom. For example, a cool and relaxing design is best complemented with large scale landscape artwork.
For Euro-centric styles, try to take inspiration from French interiors by adding patterned wallpapers, or classic artworks. Arrange them by choosing a centerpiece, then working your way outwards.
Layer It Up

Layering is one of the effective ways to make your bedroom as livable as possible. Don’t be daunted if you don’t really know how to mix and match designs because there are a few tricks that you can follow to effectively come up with a beautifully-layered room that isn’t too stuffy.
For example, when you’re arranging your bed, try to add more than just your usual blanket, bedding sheet, or pillowcase. Investing in a comforter or duvet is a great choice. Try steering clear of overused floral designs that are frankly, quite outdated. You want your bed as comfortable as possible — alternate your layers and stick to a cool color palette.
At the same time, you don’t really want to overdo your layering. If layers of bed sheets and comforters aren’t really your style, then there are other ways of accessorizing your bedroom. You could also make simple furniture like end tables or side tables where you can also place beautiful indoor plants or modern-style lamps to brighten the space up.
Key Takeaway
With these stylish bedroom decorating tips, you can creatively come up with the bedroom that you’ve always dreamed of.
Although there is no umbrella rule with how you should apply bedroom decor, keep in mind that you should make your bedroom as relaxing as possible. It’s all about striking a fine balance between adding your own set of decorations, but not to the point that it’s overdone.
