The bedroom is an important place in the house, because here we rest and recuperate. Therefore, nothing in the interior of the room should annoy and upset us. Stylist and designer Emily Henderson is sure that in order to make a space cozy and beautiful, it is not at all necessary to sacrifice time, energy and a huge amount of money. Here are some bedroom decorating tips from her book Style. Thousands of techniques and tricks for decorating any interior."

Pastel or monochrome

“Monochrome range - Coco Chanel interior decor. Classic, calm, exemplary,”says Emily Henderson. In her opinion, the ideal style for the bedroom would be "the less the better." Use soft shades of multiple colors. The palette can be wide, the main thing is that no color is too intrusive. It is better to choose a wider range of dark shades and add some lighter ones to them.

Contrast

Contrast is a combination of opposite elements in one room: styles, shapes, colors of ornaments, sizes and textures. Contrast shapes the mood in the room. If he is strong, then the room will become energetic and active. If low - quiet and calm. For the bedroom, the second option is better, it will create an atmosphere that encourages you to wrap yourself in a soft blanket and curl up. If you have only one room, then experimenting with contrasts is best in the hallway or bathroom.

Collect your favorite items

You probably already have everything you need to decorate a beautiful and comfortable room. Perfume bottles, mirrors, high-heeled shoes, bedspreads, wacky photos that remind you of something good - take a look around your apartment and put the matching items together. They can decorate your bedside table or dressing table. The bedroom is a place where there should be no strangers, so the space can be very personal.

Take a look at the photo of a small loft-style bedroom. She looks cozy in blue, wood and brick. On the bedside tables are a few favorite books and a simple vase of flowers. Hanging at the head is a map of the Eastern Mediterranean, reminiscent of old trips.

“You will never regret living in a small room among your favorite things. Excessiveness will drive you crazy,”says Emily.

Another interesting trick is to decorate the room with an interesting antique frame. You don't even need to insert a picture into it: it looks elegant, without disturbing the atmosphere of tranquility with unnecessary details and contrasts.

Vignettes for the bedroom

A vignette is a small group of objects or furniture that reflects a person's personality. In the bedroom, vignettes can be placed, for example, on the bedside table.

Four vignettes for the bedroom:

Jewelry

The key to style is hidden in your jewelry box. Get out rings, chains, brooches. Place them in bowls or small trays on your nightstand. Complete the vignette with a bouquet of flowers that you like.

The plot of the novel

Place the last few books you read on your bedside table. This little trick has a calming effect, and you will want to lie in bed a little longer on Saturday morning.

Use your savvy

Decorate your child's bedroom. A simple stack of children's books topped with a favorite toy - a car - will remind you of entertainment. Framed family photos are a touching reminder of your love.

Surround yourself with inspiration

Let only the most valuable be on the bedside table: a marble box for watches and rings, a few photographs from a recent trip, and a round vase of flowers from the garden. You will always wake up in a good mood next to such a vignette.

It is not at all necessary to re-glue the wallpaper and buy new furniture. Our house doesn't have to look like a page from a magazine and be in perfect order. The most important thing is that we feel ourselves in it. And to transform the space a little, there are thousands of simple tricks and tricks.
