When it comes to home décor, living rooms and dining rooms get all the love. And that’s for good reason—they’re the most seen, most used spaces in the home. But just because your bedroom gets a little less traffic doesn’t mean it should be neglected in your decorating plans. Here are a couple of ways to personalize your bedroom so it’s a sanctuary just for you.
DIY ARTWORK
Let’s be honest, what better art is there to adorn your walls with than your very own? Create your own DIY home decor! You can always paint a custom masterpiece at Pinot’s Palette. The painting you see above is our very chic Regal Red: https://www....ing/regal-red
MONOGRAMS & INITIALS
You can find wooden and metal letters almost anywhere- in craft stores, home décor boutiques, antique shops, in junk yards and beyond. Paint, refinish, or glue on flowers, beads, or rhinestones for extra pop. Also look for monogrammed pillow cases and throw pillows for a cute addition to your bed.
MIX & MATCH
If you often find unique, one-of- a-kind pieces you love while shopping in
antique stores and boutiques, don’t be afraid to throw them all together. Let your creativity soar with an eclectic look that perfectly captures your personality.
USE PIECES IN DIFFERENT WAYS
An old, refinished ladder can be turned into a fantastic, statement piece bookshelf. A small bookshelf, or even a stack of old suitcases can make a very cool side table.
CREATE COMFY RESTING PLACES
Your bed doesn’t have to be the only place you curl up. Let an eccentrically patterned arm chair make a statement in the corner. Bonus? You can double it as a dressing chair if the need arises.
ADD EVEN MORE SOFTNESS
More pillows, a feathery down blanket, or an ultra-soft throw
Make your bed a plush paradise. Find a thick or furry rug to throw on the floor to make that first step on a cold morning just a little easier. Mix and match colors, prints, and textures to your heart’s content. Varied textiles make a room infinitely more inviting.
SOFT LIGHTING
There’s a reason you look so amazing in dressing rooms. Design your very own mood lighting by hanging string lights around windows, wrapped around furniture, or even hanging them from the ceiling. Mix and match different sizes and even colors of lamps to create the ultimate relaxing atmosphere.
GO FOR MONOCHROME
Utilize your favorite color in a variety of shades and textures on your bed, floor, and walls to achieve a multidimensional, sophisticated design.
BURSTS OF COLOR
Not big on commitment? Go neutral on the major pieces and throw in pops of color with simple, inexpensive decor that can easily be switched out when your appetite changes palettes.
TURN MEMORIES INTO ART
Your favorite memories make for the best ambiance. Turn your photos into art by adding cute frames or printing them on a canvas, like a painting.
