4 Make Over Ideas for Your Bedroom

If your bedroom has had the same style for a while, then it might be time for a change. The good thing is that you don’t have to spend a fortune to give your bedroom a makeover unless you want to, of course. Often, it is the finishing touches that transform a room rather than the heavy furniture such as beds or wardrobes.  Here are four different makeover ideas for your bedroom.

Walls

You may be bored of looking at the same four walls so why not try painting them? This is a fantastic way to update your bedroom and it will instantly look cleaner, fresher, and give it a whole new look.  Great colours for the bedroom include cream, pale green, and lavender. These are calming colours that will promote a good night’s sleep. Steer clear of energy colours such as red and brown or you might find yourself with too much energy to rest properly.

Bedding

The main focal point of the bedroom is the bed itself. In most bedrooms, it is this piece of furniture that dominates most of the space and draws the eye as soon as you enter the room. Therefore, it makes sense that if you want to give your bedroom a makeover, then it is a clever idea to change the colour, style, and design of your bedding.  Again, you should opt for peaceful colours if you want to have a great sleep. A funky design can bring a whole new image to your room and change its appearance entirely.

If you spend a lot of time in your bedroom reading or watching TV, a great way of making your bedroom look more comfortable is to add a soft throw for the bed and some well-placed cushions. This will make your bed look soft and comfortable and turn it into a wonderful place to curl up with a good book or your favourite movie. 

Lighting

Lighting is one of the most important things to get right in a bedroom. If it is too bright you won’t be able to sleep when you turn the light off as your brain will still think it is daytime. If the lighting is too soft, you will strain your eyes whilst reading or deciding what to wear. A happy medium can be achieved using a combination of lamps and an overhead light so that you can adjust the brightness to reflect your mood. If you want to give your lighting a new image, then treat yourself to atelier luxurious lighting.

Rug

A rug can change the whole appearance of your bedroom. It is soft on the feet, so it feels wonderful underfoot, especially on a chilly morning. Rugs are a fantastic way of bringing the colour scheme of your bedroom together in one place and it finishes your room off perfectly.

Follow these four tips to give your room a fresh makeover without having to spend a fortune or move any of your heavy furniture out.
