Bedroom decorating

               I am going to give you some tips that I have personally found very helpful for decorating my room.

Tip number 1:

               When you are finding a color to paint your room, make sure it is a color you will not get bored of looking at after a few months. I personally say you should chose a natural color like amber, light gray or light brown, or even a tan. But if you are looking for a more colorful wall like orange, for example, if you want a more mature look make sure the orange has tones of brown or red for a less crazy color. Just remember the darker the color the smaller your room will appear and lighting may be a problem because dark walls can make the natural lighting not seem as bright. Lighter colors do make your room appear smaller, but in most Cases do not do with white walls because they can seem too harsh, while simple tan walls make the room cozier.

 

 


Tip number 2:
               Don’t be afraid to use a lot of pillows on your bed! Pillows really are a fun way of making the room more inviting, yet still stylish and they are a way to really get the theme of the room to show. Wheather the theam is jungle, gold, antigue, or vintage, the pillows will really make the theme pop! You can get pillows in all shapes and sizes, from round to triangle, to sparkley, silky, soft and bright. Don’t be afraid to make pillows the fun part of your room.

 

Tip numner 3:
               When organizing things on shelves make sure to still use some way of keeping “like objects” together by using baskets or containers, if most of your furniture in the room is dark wood use dark baskets and use lighter baskets for light wood or white furniture. If belongings are not contained when placed on a shelf then the shelf will begin to look cluttered. This means keep the figurines, knickknacks, and trinkets to a minimum will help your room look more organized and “put together".
 

 

Tip number 4:
               If you have space in your room it’s fun experiment with daybeds or cute benches. Adding these to a room will give you another chance to have fun with pillows. They also look very nice by a window or at the end of a bed. Daybeds come in all shapes, sizes, textures, and colors, so you will be able to find one for any type of bed room and you can find one to give any kind of feel you please! The one I have is a light orange and I have brown and gold pillows on it and it has a very classic look with dark wood for the legs.



Tip number 5:
               Make sure the space you spend a lot of time in is what you want it to be. Having your favorite scent of candles or wall flowers are a way to make you really appreciate the room you have. If you are in to something special, like fashion or makeup, use those as decorations, for example you can display your favorite pair of shoes on a shelf of display your eye shadows in fancy big clear bowl.
 

Tip number 6:
        Do not put too much furniture in your room. This tip is VERY important because over acceding the furniture limit can make the room seem way smaller and it tends to look very crowded and overly cluttered. Another quick tip is don’t push every single piece of furniture square to the wall, angling a shelf will make the room not quite as boxy and it will be more appealing to the eye. (620)
