Ever get the redecorating bug? It’s easy to look around your home and feel like you want to make some changes. After all, it’s where you spend a whole lot of your time! Whether you’re renovating your entire house or just the bedroom, you’ll want to do it as affordably and stylishly as possible. Here are six simple ideas to transform your master bedroom.
Switch up the lighting
Lighting can change the feel of a space dramatically. Think about installing a variety of lights to reflect the different uses of your room. For example, you might want bright spotlights for dressing, and recessed lighting or wall lighting for when you’re winding down for the evening. Having a dimmer switch can make all the difference, too. Make the most of light fixtures, also. An elegant or expressive chandelier can add a whole lot of class and visual interest to an otherwise neutral space.
Add more storage
If there’s one thing you can never have enough of, it’s storage! Consider under-bed options to maximize your space. Use smart furniture like a divan that opens up for additional storage space, or get your belongings organized using draw units and shoe racks. Adding a large wardrobe has the potential to make the area feel more cramped. Choosing one with a mirrored door will brighten your room and make the space feel lighter.
Create a dressing room or home office
If your master bedroom is pretty extensive, you might consider adding a dividing wall to make a small dressing room or even a home office! Adding a partition means the space can have a more specific function, so you feel like you’re getting more out of it. The way this works will depend on the shape and size of your current room, so it isn’t always an option. If you are able to add a partition, you can even choose a chic wall to add some more character to the space. This website shows you the different stylish wall options available.
Add a gallery wall
Ever wanted to live in an art gallery? Take this as an opportunity to make a gallery wall for yourself! Get a collection of family photos, one-off artwork, or prints, and frame them on one wall. The visual effect is stunning, particularly if you like eclectic decoration. You’ll have so much to look at; you won’t want to sleep.
Boost the natural light
Are you making the most of the natural light? Brighten your space by adding large mirrors to reflect the light around the room. Opposite the window will have the maximum effect. You can also paint your walls a light, neutral color and use pale curtains to ensure the most sunlight possible.
Add texture
Bringing in more texture can make your room feel more luxurious and cozy at the same time. With carpets, rugs, curtains, bedspreads – invest in high quality, sumptuous materials and a range of knits for texture. Add faux fur cushions on leather armchairs, or a velvet covered chair at your wooden dresser. Contrasting textures add a lot of signature style and interest to your bedroom, making it truly unique.
Hopefully you’re inspired to experiment with your bedroom decoration. Enjoy creating a space that you love!
