Most of us spend more hours in our bedrooms than any other room in our homes. Indulge yourself and turn your bedroom into your sanctuary. Here are ten items to inspire your bedroom decor as you create a getaway in your master bedroom.
The Bed
The bed is probably the biggest expense when decorating your bedroom, and given how many hours you will rest in it you should invest wisely. Choose a piece that you absolutely love. If your aesthetic is modern, choose a frame that has clean lines and solid colors. If you tend to be a romantic, choose a canopy bed that fits your style. Once you’ve found the bed of your dreams, the rest of your bedroom decor will fall into place.
Luxury Bedding
As the bed is the focal point in any bedroom, you’ll want to adorn it with fabulous bedding. High quality bedding will provide both a restful nights sleep as well as room appeal. Visit our post about the most luxurious night’s sleep to see our top picks for luxury bedding.
Decorative Pillows
Accent pillows can transform the look of a room. The discerning shopper can find decorative pillows that can be considered mini works of art. In our article introducing luxury bedding designer Lili Alessandra, we explain the allure of highly embellished decorative pillows that are hand embroidered and adorned with a range of semi precious stones, such as tiger’s eye, amethyst, and garnets.
Lighting
Lighting sets the mood for the room, so don’t settle for just anything. Choose a beautiful statement piece that reflects your style and the tone you want to set for your bedroom. Read more about our favorite luxury home lighting options in this post.
Accent Rugs
A beautiful rug that is not only visually appealing but also soft to the touch will add color and high fashion to any room. Custom rugs are a great option, and there are other luxurious options, like this $8,000 rug from Anthropologie, that have a custom appearance.
Someplace to Sit
Every room needs a comfy bench or settee to relax on while winding down from a long day. The Lulu Tufted Settee at Neiman Marcus adds a punch of color to a classic design, and it’s a steal at just $3499.
Wall Color
Since the bedroom is the most personal space in the house, let love be your guide. Choose a color that inspires you or that just makes you happy. HGTV has a great list of master bedroom color suggestions here.
Nightstands
Of course you need a nightstand for necessities, like your books, clock, and phone. So choose something that is a work of art, that will inspire you when it’s the first thing you see upon awakening in the morning. This stunning example from Nella Vetrina is unique and luxurious.
Wall Art
While it’s tempting to fill the bedroom walls with family pictures, be sure to include beautiful wall art, too. Favorite phrases and locations are wonderful options for framed art. Custom pieces from a favorite local artist or local art house make wonderful pieces to decorate the bedroom with as well.
