Floral - A Walk In The Park: Elevate Your Bedroom Design with Natural Beauty
A floral-themed bedroom is a great way to bring the beauty of nature indoors. One way to accomplish this is with the use of wallpaper. Wallpaper has an immediate dramatic effect on your room. Whether you are looking for a bold, dramatic wall covering, or something more subtle and classic, adding wallpaper will immediately transform your bedroom.
If wallpaper seems like too much of a commitment, creating a floral bed will have a huge impact. Your bed is likely the focal point of your bedroom and dressing your bed in an impactful floral can also have a dramatic effect. One of my favorites is the Levtex Home Grandiflora Quilt Set. Its bold, dramatic mural-like array of flowers has immediate visual appeal. Picking something with this kind of drama allows you to be a little more subtle with everything else in the room.
If you want more of a classic botanical look, I love the Viviana Quilt Set also from Levtex Home. I like the idea of playing up its traditional look with a few complementary accent pillows and then using vintage-inspired pieces in the bedroom, like a classic dresser or a vintage wood headboard.
If you prefer a simpler, cleaner bed but want a hint of floral, think about using some classing bedding like the Levtex Home Cloud Waffle Duvet Set and dress it up with an assortment of floral decorative pillows. This really gives you the best of all worlds and allows you to change out your look easily and inexpensively if you find you want a change of scenery.
Modern Farmhouse - Mixing Old and New: Revamp Your Room Décor with a Timeless Style
Modern farmhouse has definitely become a major design trend. Blending elements of contemporary design with the rustic, cozy, and classic features of traditional farmhouse aesthetics, it is a favorite with designers.
Opt for a neutral color palette with soft, earthy tones like whites, creams, and warm grays. Choose furniture with distressed finishes or vintage-inspired pieces to add character and a sense of history to the room. This style really favors mixing the old with the new. Natural elements, like reclaimed wood or shiplap walls, can add a touch of farmhouse charm. Consider incorporating a statement piece, such as a weathered barn door or a vintage ladder as a decorative element.
I love the simplicity and classicism of stripes and checks for a modern farmhouse bedroom, like Levtex Home's Tobago Stripe Quilt Set or Camden Check Quilt Set in plaid patterns. Camden is even available in multiple colors, making it so versatile. The key to this look is to mix and match, old and new.
Finally, pay attention to the lighting. Opt for warm, soft lighting through fixtures like vintage-inspired chandeliers or wall sconces. Consider adding some string lights or a candle arrangement to create a soothing and romantic ambiance.
Boho - Embracing the Bohemian Lifestyle: Room Ideas for a Free-Spirited Bedroom
Boho design is an eclectic and free-spirited interior design style that draws inspiration from various sources, cultures, and eras. I think of it as a relaxed, artistic, and unconventional design approach, mixing patterns, textures, colors, and natural elements, resulting in a visually rich and vibrant space. The Boho theme is all about maximizing pattern, color, and material. It really is a design style in which you can let yourself go.
If being entirely eclectic and maximal is too much, I like the idea of embracing some boho elements into a room. For example, the Levtex Home Khotan Red Quilt Set really embraces the bohemian vibe. Based on a classic rug pattern, it immediately infuses your room with a boho look. The designers at Levtex Home have made your mix and match job easy by providing an eclectic group of pillows that are all part of the Khotan collection.
One of the defining features of a boho-themed room is the display of eclectic accessories and decorative items. Hanging plants with macramé is a great way to fill the room up with beautiful and functional accessories. Macramé is a great Boho tool. Think about a great dimensional macrame wallhanging to add another layer of interest to your room.
Paisley - Classy And Classic Bedroom Decor Pattern
Paisley is less of a theme and more of a wonderful pattern choice for a bedroom as it adds a touch of elegance and sophistication to the space. The intricate and flowing teardrop-shaped motifs create a visually captivating design that brings a sense of warmth and artistic flair, giving it an instant classic vibe.
Paisley design can be traced back to ancient civilizations, but it became most prominent during the Persian Empire in modern-day Iran (224-651 AD) and was highly popular in 17th and 18th century Europe. The name "paisley" is believed to have originated from the town of Paisley in Scotland, where the pattern gained popularity during the 19th century.
For a more classic and less boho look, I like to pick one paisley pattern and keep it consistent. For example, I love the. Cortona Paisley Quilt Set from Levtex Home. The large scale paisley in blues, greens and spas is an instant classic. For a room like this, I love the idea of repeating the pattern in the drapes to really emphasize it.
For the other pieces in the room, I would pick out shades from the fabric itself. Soft blue or green walls will definitely set off the bedding beautifully. A solid colored rug, with a subtle pattern could also pair well.
A Few Final Tips
Implementing a room theme involves careful consideration and attention to detail. To bring your chosen theme to life, start by creating a focal point that anchors the design and draws the eye. This can be achieved through a statement piece of furniture, a striking artwork, an accent wall or dramatic bedding. While staying true to the theme, it's important to maintain versatility in the space. Balance thematic elements with neutral and flexible pieces that allow for future adjustments. Explore the art of mixing and matching complementary styles to add depth and interest to the room. Don't forget to infuse the space with your personal touch, whether it's through cherished mementos, meaningful artwork or photographs or heirloom furniture pieces.
