Bedroom

Do you have a romantic vision for your bedroom decor ? sumptuous silk curtains cascading from a gilt curtain pole with embroidered bed linen? Is this the bedroom of a Bachelor Pad - the ultimate in modern minimalism with a few well chosen boy's toy's dotted around? Is it a chic bedroom for two in a city apartment or loft - the understated look of chic modern living with a large flat screen TV and a few well placed trendy home accessories? Or is it just Mum and Dad's room - a welcoming family room where at any moment the kids may burst in for a cuddle in bed?

You need to think carefully about what your bedroom means to you and the colours and decor that you feel is relevant to your lifestyle. Perhaps you just want to decorate the room in harmony with the rest of the house with no specific remit. Window treatments and wall coverings in soft creams, linen or cotton blinds or curtain fabrics is an option which always gives a calm and restful look, ideal for a relaxing and romantic evening, especially with a few well placed scented candles. If, however, you welcome an exciting mood then allow yourself to be inspired with confident colours and sumptuous textures making for an eclectic start in the mornings.

If you live in a small house or apartment it is best to try to maintain harmony throughout your decor, without making it monotonous and bland. Selecting a common colour for your window treatments and carrying the same colour from your living area through to your bedroom will create a visual flow through the decor. There are many window treatment options available to enable you to dress your bedroom decor in harmony with the atmosphere you are trying to create. Complimenting your window blinds for instance, by dressing an elegant metal or wooden curtain pole with light weight sheers or voile curtains will turn a plain roller blind into an exquisitely romantic feature of the room.
