Hello World! Welcome Friends! Minimalism is still growing in popularity. Across the world, more people are falling in love with this simple look. However, in many homes, this decorating style has not reached the bedroom yet, but that is changing.
People are realizing that rooms that are decorated in a minimalist style are extremely relaxing to be in, which is exactly what you want from a bedroom. If you want to transform your bedroom into a crisp, clean, Zen space, just follow the steps below.
De-clutter and organize
The minimalist look only works if you are tidy, so you really need to create a place for everything. Before you start work, go through your bedroom and de-clutter. Get rid of anything that you do not really need, and find new homes for anything that you plan to keep.
If you have a lot of furniture in the room, get rid of any items that you do not really need. For example, suit racks and pouffes are not essentials. Items like these tend to take up space. If you leave them in place, you will end up spoiling the overall look of the room. With minimalism, less is definitely more.
Decorate using neutral colors
Using a simple, neutral color palette is the best way to create the right look. White and cream are best, but you can also use light pastels and brown to add warmth without spoiling the overall look. If you want to add a splash of color, choose bedding sets with contrasting pillowcases, and perhaps add a bright cushion to your bedroom chair.
A high quality finish
The simpler the look of your bedroom the more important it is to get the finish exactly right. You need your walls to be smooth, and the planks of your light wood floor perfectly finished, and the paint on the walls to be cut in properly. The plainness of the room means that the eye is drawn, automatically, to even the tiniest flaw. When decorating a minimalist room you should always take your time, and use the best materials.
Achieving the look on a tight budget
However, the nice thing about the minimalist look is that you can still achieve it without having to spend a lot of money to do so. If you are trying to transform your room on a tight budget, buying as much as you can during the Christmas and New Year sales is a good idea. By shopping that way, you can easily pick up high quality pieces, for a fraction of what they would normally cost.
The right type of bed and bedding
For a minimalist bedroom, buying the right style of bed and bedding is essential. The bed takes up a big percentage of the space, so if you get this element of the room wrong you can easily spoil the overall look.
Low-level platform beds work best. Make sure that the legs are simple, and avoid elaborate headboards, the plainer the better. Leather headboards work particularly well.
Always buy good quality plain bedding, in a neutral color, which blends in with the rest of the room. If you want to make the space look a little cozier, and inviting, investing in a couple of throws or bedspreads is a good way to do it. You just need to stick to simple crisp styles to avoid ruining the clean look you have created.
Have a great day/night depending on where you are in the world! Go with God and remember to be kind to one another!
