Bedroom Accessories

A bedroom is your personal space where you can relax, undisturbed by the world outside. To make your personal space more intimate, enhance it with accessories.

Adding accessories to your bedroom will definitely make it feel \"right\". Simple things like adding colorful designs to monotone walls can create a whole new atmosphere. Live foliage can also enhance. Plants come in many different varieties and sizes and fit into all types of bedroom decor. If natural plants are a problem, artificial ones that look quite real are available. If the walls are decorated with palm leaves, potted palm trees would add a fresh, breezy feeling. This feeling can be further enhanced by matching sheet sets and covers for the bed. Two neat, white boxes with plants placed in front of the windows also add a touch of freshness.

Throws, cushions and pillows can add a feeling of nostalgia and add warmth to the room. If the rug in the room is striped, the colors can be carried into the curtains and bedding as well. For a softer feel, use pale colored fabric throughout the room. Find a soft-colored rug that compliments the soft look. For a wild look choose rugs with bold prints.

Decorative curtains can transform a lifeless room into an interesting room. Curtains called valances will define your windows by allowing sunlight to flow in freely. Curtain lengths are also important. Short curtains look good in tiny cottages or on attic-like windows. Short windows in bedrooms look better if covered with blinds. Full length curtains should either touch the floor or be one inch above the ground. They tend to look better in larger bedrooms.

Other accessories that create a stunning effect are wall hangings, paintings, mirrors and photographs. These can be put together to create a personal feel. Photographs of the family hung on the walls will add intimacy to your space, and lamp shades can have a truly mystical effect.

Add charm and beauty to your bedroom by adding your favorite accessories. Accessories are your personal statement -- an extension of your personal space.
