Make Your Master Bedroom Right For You

By Martina Hanson

If you're looking for change perhaps a new scenery, a different ambiance or something refreshing, it's about time to redecorate the master bedroom. It may be quite a while since you last renovated the master bedroom or maybe years since you moved into your house. Having something new is exciting, especially for a place where you spend most of your time and one that is very personal to you. What better choice than the master bedroom?

Choose a theme. A bedroom that looks half modern and half old-fashioned is confusing. Yes, eclectic indeed but quite a headache isn't it? A bedroom with clashing colors may look bright and happy but it can be shabby too. A bedroom is a place of relaxation, hence bearing this in mind can help you choose a theme to apply.

With a theme, you can now have an easier time picking out colors, design and decorations. You'll be wounding your way around a main idea and all you have to do is supplement with supporting details to make the picture complete. I'll give my master bedroom as a case - it looks like any traditional bedroom without a television, sofa set and desk. However, I chose to make it modern by putting contemporary lamps, a small table where I put my laptop and with a stylish stool where I surf the net away. It has a bookcase for my books, magazine rack and CD case. The color is nothing fancy nor bright but a subdued beige and clean white with pastels for the curtains and chair drapes. For a classic look, the throw pillows and area rug are in subtle earth colors. This makes my master bedroom cozy and relaxing.

Think about the colors that you want to use for your bed linens and window treatments as well. White linen looks beautiful against light blue or lavender walls. Yellow linens are the perfect accent for red walls. Make sure that your colors flow nicely, but don't be afraid to incorporate the colors that you love.

A neat bedroom can do wonders. It's relaxing and pleasant. Have storage space for your things. Some people love to read so they put a shelf for their books in the bedroom. Others like displaying souvenir items or knick-knacks so a chest to put these smaller things prevent clutter. If you love clothes, shoes, bags or all of the above, make sure you have enough storage for keeping all your stuff.

You master bedroom should feel like your own personal paradise. It should be a place where you can get away from it all and unwind from a rough day on the job. Remember to make it all about you and the things that you love!

Make your master bedroom a heavenly place. It should be a place where you can unwind and rest without worries. - 23802
