Tips For Bedroom Decorating


Bedroom decorating is a project which can bring many different feelings to mind. Decorating can seem to be fun, creative, expressive, and pleasing. While on the other hand it can be daunting, time consuming, expensive and overwhelming. In any case what you need is a good plan. Whether you are redecorating a familiar and comfortable bedroom or starting from the ground up in a new living space you need to have the knowledge necessary to make your decorating project a beautiful success. Decorating is not just about being comfortable, it is also about creating spaces which reflect who you and your family are.

So where to start? First off you will obviously need to determine your budget. Keep in mind that we spend nearly a third of our life sleeping, in addition to the time that we spend in our bedrooms watching television, reading, resting, dressing and getting ready for work etc. You should keep this in mind when thinking of the money you can spend. Also as the saying goes, you often "get what you pay for". Quality materials and workmanship often are a bit more costly, however this often translates into extra value. Bedding and fabrics which are made well out of higher grade materials will add years of use and will need less repair and maintenance. This translates into less cost over the long run. The number of bedrooms you need to decorate will come into play when making these decisions as well. A child's or a guest room may not require as much attention to detail and quality as the master bedroom.

The next step in decorating your room is to decide on what type of colors and designs you would like. Waverly Fabrics has some great information on their website. Their "how to decorate" section helps you to pick out a color and pattern scheme which reflects your unique style. They start by offering you a "color quiz" which gives you a series of questions aimed at determining a color palette for the fabrics you will use in your design. These questions cover many areas, from the color of your cookware, your favorite vacation spots, to your hobbies and choice of colors around your home. The quiz results in a color palette suggestion. There is also a similar "lifestyle quiz" which offers you pattern choices based on your answers.

After you determine color and pattern its now time to find the exact fabric or bedding ensemble to go with. When decorating a bedroom there is more to it than choosing a bedspread and pillow cases. The most popular manufacturers, Thomasville, Waverly and Croscill all offer choices that extend beyond the bed. Croscill has many coordinated bathroom accessories to choose from. Thomasville offers fine bedding ensembles and in addition makes fabrics by the yard available so that you can reupholster chairs make curtains, lamp shades, and table and chair coverings. Today, Waverly offers Hundreds of beautiful fabrics, wall paper, paints and furniture. A popular choice for those who are proficient in construction and sewing is to choose Waverly Bedding. By utilizing Waverly's fabrics families have created the most striking and unique living areas that ones imagination can create. Thomasville's fabric by the yard is also a good choice if you were to go this route.

Finding a good retailer is the next step. Thomasville, Croscill and Waverly all offer their products through outside retailers. They don't sell directly to the general public. When looking for a retailer you want to be able to compare price, reputation, availability, and service. An excellent way to do this is to go with on-line shopping. There are a lot of e-commerce and commercial websites on which these products are available. Any time of day or night from the comfort of your home you can browse the best prices, look for customer comments and research the company.
