How To Decorate A Home

Picture
It's not uncommon to overlook decorative details when it comes to the master bedroom. Because it is not a public space, it is often not a priority when it comes to stretching decorating dollars. But it is possible to add style to the bedroom and make it more that a unadorned space that serves basic functions by providing a bed, a closet, a dresser and little else. Your home is your sanctuary, especially in these trying economic times, and your bedroom is the intimate space in your home. It should be clean and conducive to rest, relaxation and rejuvenation. Whether you live alone or are part of a couple, here are some timeless items that can bring style and beauty to your master bedroom walls without costing a fortune.

Wrought iron wall decor adds style and dimension

Wrought iron is a great classic choice in a bedroom because it not only adds style, it adds dimension to your walls. If you love the look of Tuscan decor or Old World style, wrought iron wall grills, framed mirrors, and wall sconces fit right in. But they are also a great choice for contemporary or casual looks. The simple matte finish of wrought iron accentuates a sleek modern decor or can give your bedroom the breezy cottage look of a California bungalow. Because wrought iron works with any decorative style or theme, it will complement the furnishings you already have.

Metal wall art works with any theme

From tropical to nautical, cottage to contemporary, you will find metal wall art to complement your personal sense of style or your favorite theme. Create a focal point over the bed with a large piece of metal wall art that will bring texture, shape and color to your bedroom. Many pieces incorporate candle holders or can be accented with harmonizing candle sconces. Adding fragrant candles to any bedroom is a wonderful way to bring in aromatherapy and the romance glow of candlelight.

Go beyond the basics with a decorative wall mirror

A mirror is a necessity in a bedroom but it can also be a beautiful decorative piece. Incorporate a pair of wall candle sconces with a wall mirror to reflect candlelight throughout the master bedroom. Place an elaborately framed mirror above a traditional dresser or make a modern statement with a large perfectly round mirror hung above a low bureau or console. Combine a wall mirror with a wall shelf to make an elegant statement: Hang the mirror so that appears to be resting on the shelf and group candles, sea shells, or collectibles in front of and beside the mirror.

Create groupings for impact

Add to your options and style factor by combining new elements with items you already have. For example, if you have a striking painting or framed print in the bedroom accent the space next to it with metal wall vases or pockets that can be left as is or filled with dried flowers or artificial blooms and foliage. Interesting platters or dishes, whether new or vintage, are just the right size for accenting larger wall art. They can also be displayed on a shelf or ledge or arranged along the arched outline of a curvaceous headboard.
