3 Great Bedroom Design Ideas To Suit The Whole Family
Now is the perfect time of year to take on big home projects and renovations. But when it comes to our bedrooms we can become a little complacent. Nobody ever sees them but us so we tend to leave these spaces until last. And often the budget pot is empty by then too! Why not spend this weekend refreshing the decor and creating three beautiful bedrooms? Here is a great guide to get the most from your space:
Master Bedroom
These rooms are often the largest in the house. Why not go all out and treat yourself to a brand new super king size bed? With so much room to spread out on, you’ll sleep soundly. That’s the whole point of the bedroom. Quality sleep is so important to our health. Choose a bed that will support you in the position you prefer to lay. It should also be cool in the summer and warm in the winter.
The position of the bed in here is also important. If you have children, you might prefer to be able to see through the door and down the hall while you are in bed. If you position the head of the bed under a window, you may be disturbed by traffic noise. However, this could be the best position during a hot summer so you can feel the night breeze on your skin while you sleep. Other furniture is best secured against the walls to maximize the space you have.
Colors in the bedroom should be calming and relaxing. Blues and pastel yellows are very popular bedroom colors for this season. Choose 3 or 4 different tones of the same color. That way you can use a vibrant shade and pastel shades, as well as everything in between. You could use wallpaper at one end of the room, or pick a single color throughout. Don’t position mirrors where shapes or colors may distract you from falling asleep.
If you have a master bathroom attached to this room, consider giving the walls a fresh coat of paint in there too. Rearranging this room is not as straightforward as making changes in the bedroom itself. However, you could change the towel color to better match the bedroom.

Decorating a child’s bedroom is often easier than an adult’s. Bright colors and characters on the walls, bedding and drapes make the room fun. They may have a favorite TV character. You can usually find enough merchandise to fully kit out a room. Lamp shades, posters, rugs, and cushions can often be tracked down online if you’re keen to dress the room in one design. If you’re quite arty, you might even choose to paint the bedroom furniture with the icons they love.
Many parents prefer to keep a child’s room neutral. That way the child can personalize their own room with posters. As tastes and fashions change, this is a much easier way to refresh the room! However, a child’s bedroom will suffer more wear and tear than the other rooms. You may expect to be refreshing the decor once a year. Accidents happen so you may need to repair doors and walls as well.
Spare Bedroom
Many of us tend to store our old boxes and junk in the spare bedroom. Then we put off having overnight guests because of the big tidy up that is required. If you’re planning on decluttering your guest room, you could turn it into a beautiful and inviting bedroom in no time. Fitted
The guest bedroom is perfect for trying out new creative ideas. Wooden flooring looks very stylish in the bedroom. You might choose more vibrant colors in here. Many people put their best bedding sets on the bed of the guest room. Let your chosen color palette really stand out here. Cushion covers, bedspreads and bed runners can accent the room beautifully. Some people like to match patterns for the bed with the drapes and rug. This isn’t necessary. You could keep the pattern for the bed and leave the other items as a block color.
Have somewhere for towels to hang and dry. You might also provide a mirror and some bathroom products for the guest’s convenience. Fresh flowers are a nice touch in a guest room as well. A clock and a bedside lamp create the finishing touches this room may need. You should use a bedroom guardian type of product to keep bed bugs at bay in each of the bedrooms, especially if they’re not used very often.
Bedrooms can be luxurious or functional. They can help promote healthy sleep and be centers of fun for the kids. If you’re hoping to redecorate some of your bedrooms this season, try these helpful tips. Sleep well in your beautiful new room.
