Your home should always be considered a work in progress. That approach also applies to your bedroom. Your bedroom is considered one of the most special places in your home. However, sometimes your bedroom can become dull, especially if you haven’t made any changes within the last few years. With that being said, here are several tips to help you rejuvenate your bedroom.
Add Some Art
While many people hang artwork throughout their home, one place that is often overlooked is the bedroom. Consider adding some artwork to your bedroom. Hang up your favorite painting or collection of photos on the wall near your headboard. The new artwork will help create some excitement every time that you enter your bedroom.
Use Medal
Adding some glass or metallic surfaces near your bed or even on your pillows can add a new dynamic to your bedroom. Metallic items such as gold are popular right now, and traces of chrome or silver are other good options.
Upgrade Your Lighting
A common way that you could end up having a dull bedroom is through having the light fixture for a long time. After a few years, consider changing the fixture and going with something that is more modern. Because there are a wide variety of different styles to choose from, it is very likely that you’ll find something that suits you.
Add Some Plants
Plants are a good way to freshen up your bedroom. Adding a house plant will add color and contrast to your room, while also allowing you to purify the bedroom air. You can also manually grow plants such as pothos and dracena.
Purchase A New Bed
Purchasing a new bed can add vitality to your bedroom. While your bed helps keep you warm, your comforter and pillows bring a unique appeal to your room. That’s why it is a good idea to change your bedding every couple of years before any wear and tear starts to develop.
Enhance Your Windows
Upgrade your windows by going for special lines and soft fabric. You can add some extra depth to your room by combining your blinds and drapes together. That’s a natural way to add some color to your room.
Change Your Walls
Your walls are an important part of determining how bright your room is. Dark paint could kill the mood in your room, so avoid it unless you are trying to get a dramatic look. To make your room stand out, consider adding some new paint and wallpaper.
Change Your Rug
When it comes to upgrading the bedroom, floors are often neglected. While your floor may not be a decorating asset, there are some things that you can do to make your floor stand out. Consider adding a colored rug or a patterned rug.

Rather tough when my wife and I have such drastically different styles. Usually we just compromise and get what she wanted from the beginning. ?

I really like the lighting idea. That’s a super way to make things more modern and interesting.
Melissa Storms says
I need to do something in my bedroom to update. I really like shabby chic but it is a fine line between vintage and garbage at times, lol. I am planning to repaint in a lighter color than i have going on right now and updating our light fixtures.
Dorothy Boucher says
I love your ideas here, and I wouldn’t mind changing the wall color , its about the only think I can’t change because of renting an apartment, bummer for me, but I do try to add plenty of light and new bedding, curtains, and wall hanging, from pictures to plants, I love changing things up but on a budget.

Great suggestions! We could really revitalize our bedroom but are working with some serious space limitations. I think paint might be the best & most dramatic way to really give it a makeover & brighten it up! 😀

Great tips! I really need to upgrade my bedroom, it’s the last room that gets little decor attention. I definitely need better lighting.

These are great ideas! In particular, I think people underestimate the amount of impact adding plants can have on a space, and it’s a change that people can make regardless of their living situation (owning vs. renting).
