The bedroom is an intimate and personal space where we can express our creativity through wall decorations.
In this article, we will explore ideas for creating beautiful wallpapers for bedroom walls, projects that you can do yourself to add a unique and pleasant touch to your private space.
Let’s find out how to do it together turning walls into true works of art!
Install cornices
Cornice moldings are a great accessory that will give your bedroom a classic and refined touch.
They are easy to make and can be applied using pieces of wood cut and nailed to the wall.
For a faster and tenant-friendly solution, you can opt for “peel and stick” adhesive strips..
Framing Murals
If your bedroom already has frame moldings, or if you’ve decided to add them, consider placing wallpaper inside the frames.
It not only gives illusion of works of artbut also creates a visually interesting focal point in the room.
Add a vertical crop
A simple but effective solution vertical strips are installed to decorate the wall behind the bed.
This project can easily be done with adhesive strips or small nails, providing a tenant-friendly solution.
Paint the wall a soft pink tone
A dusty pink shade can transform your bedroom into a cozy retreat.
If you’re not ready for a radical change, start by painting just one wall or door to see how you like the effect.
Install Dado Boiserie
Dado boiserie is a classic choice, ideal for spaces where architectural details are missing.
You can paint it different colors to give it a personal touch without having to remove all the work and moldings.
Create built-in libraries
If you need extra storage space, use the wall around the bed to build built-in bookcases.
Painting the background behind the headboard adds further contrast and makes the bed the real star of the room.
Split the wall in half
There’s no rule that says you have to paint the entire accent wall.
Painting only the bottom or top half can create a “faux wainscoting” effect, visually elongate ceilings and add architectural interest.
Use a fabric made from natural fibers
Grasscloth is a luxurious wallpaper, ideal for those who want a refined touch in their room.
This type of wallpaper offers ainteresting texture visual while maintaining a neutral appearance.
Add a decorative fireplace
A decorative fireplace can create a unique visual focal point for your bedroom.
A marble mantle with a vintage mirror above it adds drama and architectural interest to an otherwise normal space.
Highlight existing architecture
If your room has specially shaped walls, like a triangular walldon’t try to hide them.
Instead, highlight these unique features with custom curtains and headboards that match the color palette.
Use a lime coating
Lime paint is ideal for creating the effect of worn walls typical of classic European buildings.
Try this type of wall paint in your bedroom for a surprisingly refined effect.
Block colors on the wall
Create the illusion of an oversized headboard by painting a wide strip behind the bed, leaving two sections unpainted or in a different color.
This adds a an interesting graphic element for the room.
Choose a dark shade
Even small bedrooms can benefit from a dark, rich shade on an accent wall.
This adds depth and charm, especially if the wall features architectural details.
Paint the shelf
If you have a shelf that seems out of place, turn it into a decorative element.
A lime painted wall adds texture and you can paint the shelf in a similar shade for a calm and relaxing effect.
