How to Decorate Your Bedroom: 8 Bedroom Decor Options for a Calm Environment

Decorate your bedroom with flowers and lamps

Having a serene, peaceful environment in the bedroom can make all of the difference when it comes to sleep patterns and comfort levels. How you decorate the bedroom can create a relaxed feeling, which will help you get the sleep that you need.

Your bedroom should feel like your sanctuary and reflect your likes and tastes. It can involve decor choices, color schemes, mattress and pillow options, and bedding choices.

Here are eight things that you can do to decorate your bedroom in a way that can help you get a good night's rest and help you relax.

1. Remember Less is More

Even if your home is tight on space, keeping your bedroom streamlined and free of clutter can do a lot to clear your mind and help you relax. You might be better off isolating your TV watching to the living room since the lights and sounds can keep you awake and won't give your mind a chance to unwind. Less clutter, in general, can give your space a more serene feel. Investing in nightstands with drawers or cabinets will help you stash clutter and keep items such as books and magazines out of sight when you aren't using them.

2. Invest in Warm Lighting Options

While overhead lighting a great option in the morning when you are getting ready to face the day, bright lighting might not be the best option when you are winding down in the evening. Alternative lighting options can bring with them a warmer, ambient glow to your space. Just investing in a few floor or table lamps can give you multiple options when it comes to controlling light levels in your bedroom. You can even incorporate dimly lit night lights or string lights to keep on throughout the night as well.

3. Block Outside Light

While your interior lighting is something that you can control, sometimes blocking out external light from the outdoors can be an afterthought. Especially if you live in an environment that has long summer days or you have a schedule that requires some sleep during daylight, blocking sunlight out is essential. Heavy, blackout curtains or blinds can be a significant upgrade to give you more light control in your bedroom. If you cannot get to this project right away, light blocking face masks can be a big help in the interim.

4. Choose a Calming Color Scheme

Putting some thought into your bedroom's overall color scheme can instantly give your space a more serene feel. If you can paint, choose a pastel or light color for your walls to set the tone. Avoid busy patterns and bold color options in the bedroom, and save this for your closet or bathroom if you need a touch of color nearby. You can then keep your color scheme in mind when picking out furnishings, additional artwork, and bedding to bring a calming feel to your space with color alone. If you rent or cannot get to painting right away, focus on hanging art and tapestries that reflect the environment you are working to create.

5. Select the Right Artwork

While you might enjoy bold colors and subjects when it comes to your artistic style, sometimes choosing pieces that are a bit more relaxing in your bedroom can make all the difference. Opt for a pale or pastel color scheme with artistic pieces that have calming greens and blues. Going for natural settings such as sunsets, beaches, and the ocean can lull you away to a more peaceful place when you are trying to get to sleep.

6. Invest in the Right Bed

It might seem as if it goes without saying, but having the right mattress that fits your personal and sleeping needs can make all of the difference in your sleep schedule and help keep you alert during the day. When looking into the best mattress, be sure to share all details, such as your level of comfort, cooling options, or if you have injuries or back problems. Beds aren't one-size-fits-all, and finding the perfect mattress for your needs can make the most significant difference in the bedroom.

7. Remember Bedding is Important, Too

Once you have the ideal bed that fits your personal needs when it comes to comfort and support, the next step is incorporating bedding that both looks and feels nice. Other elements to consider are pillows, shams, comforter covers for every season, and even your headboard choice. Pillows come in about as many options as mattresses these days, and finding a pillow that supports your head and neck correctly and fits with your sleeping style can make or break a good night's sleep. Don't forget that bedding is something you can switch out more easily when it comes to the seasons. That includes the weight of sheets and covers, and color schemes to reflect the time of year.

8. Add in Natural Elements

Some individuals find that nature and natural elements can have a centering, calming effect. If you love calming noises and scenery from the outdoors, this can be a great thing to incorporate into your bedroom. Natural elements such as plants, flowers, stones, or a small fountain can bring in greenery, decor, and the calming sounds of water. These can be switched out seasonally or updated if you need to swap out plants or fountains throughout the year.

It is important to find what works for you to make your bedroom an inviting, serene environment, and this might take a little trial and error. If you can make your bedroom's setting a priority, you can be on your way to a better night's sleep in no time. Having a relaxing sanctuary in your home where you can forget about the stresses of the day can make a huge difference in your overall outlook and ability to relax.
