Themed Library Bedroom
This one looks like a dream but my first thought is who dusts that place?
Mushroom-Themed Bedroom
Unfortunately yes but I like the thought that it's out there...😅
Load More Replies...Would you like to see Mushroom? It sounded better in my head. Please tell me someone gets what I'm saying? :)
I would love to play Animal Crossing in that room. It matches the theme of my island!
A Stargazer's Dream Home
Uh... this looks less like a starry sky and more like a crime scene under blacklight
If you think this is crazy check out the rest of their Stargazer dream home. For those that don't know, click on the name at the lower left corner beneath the photo.
Even though we all have (hopefully) felt cozy at some point, it can be hard to pinpoint what exactly makes a space relaxing. A lack of chaos and noise is a great starting point, but most of us also like to feel warm and snug. But obviously, you can’t just add twenty blankets to a room and call it a day (in most circumstances.)
However, there are still a few pointers to keep in mind that might help you make a space that works for you. First and foremost, unless you love white, pick a color, preferably something warm, and paint a wall in that tone. This isn’t as simple as just picking a nice color and buying some paint, but it’s just laying the foundation for something more.

Why is she wearing shoes on white sheets? I can’t even wear shoes around my house. That’s just gross, unsanitary.
Yeah, I was like, "This is considered a good look by somebody??"
Load More Replies...Lol, what? My niece is 6...she knows what cassette tapes are. She listens to them on an old player.
Load More Replies...It’s important to coordinate the color you pick with the furnishings, style, and furniture of the room. White is a popular color because it goes with everything, but a truly coordinated bedroom will be centered around a theme, with each part of the room complimenting it. This is why it can be hard to design a truly excellent space, as most things have to be planned in advance. Let's face it, finding the right furniture, posters, and really everything else can be a chore.

"Can't sleep, rabbit will eat me. Can't sleep, rabbit will eat me. Can't sleep..."
If that’s not enough, it’s vital to not forget lighting. You can have the most lovely room in the universe, but if it’s pitch black, that ends up not mattering at all. This is why a great room will feature more than one source of light, generally adjusted to give the right amount of illumination, color, and shadows to make your concept come to life.
This Is Perfection
My plants are not allowed on the bed, but sometime i cuddle with my favourite tillandsia on the sofa
All that chalk dust landing on the pillows... No thank you.
This is actually genius. If your kids don't stop writing on the walls, Make the walls of chock board. Freaking genius
oh, I love this. Nice and dark and I would have my husband draw on it all the time and I would leave him cute notes.
::sneezes:: love the chalkboard, but not above the headboard. Dust-free or liquid chalk markers maybe.

At the same time, as in food and fabrics, texture is another often overlooked feature. Unlike a steak or a pastry, adding texture to a room is a little bit harder. Generally, this involves adding details to the walls, like posters, textured wallpaper, as well as furniture that touches the walls of the room. Some even recommend fabric walling, if your building can support it.

Amazing Dark Bedroom
I’m Always Dreaming Of This Bedroom Design
The first thing that popped out to me was “ooh a lamp I can read in bed” 😭
So unless you have a plethora of design experience, at the end of the day, it can be hard to know what you want until you see it. Most of us, naturally, don’t want to constantly repaint and rebuild a room just to try things out, so it helps to maybe explore some other options. In that regard, Bored Panda has got you covered, check out our two previous articles on cool bedroom wall decor.

What is up with that bed? It looks like a couch, and also, why is that for a child? I don’t even have a room like that.
Not a child’s room at all. Too stuffy. Everything screams “Do not touch!”
Open Shelving
Throughout the years, you have collected a lot of items that hold emotional value for you, from souvenirs to books and anything in between. Instead of letting them collect dust in drawers, put them on open shelves to surround yourself with favorite memories.

It gets harder and harder to keep it the more stuff u got around / on top / in open shelf...

Things to Keep in Mind
With so many wall ideas for bedrooms around, it is important to remember a couple of things. When deciding on the color palette, furniture upholstery, or the piece of art to be put on the walls, your bedroom has to feel personal and inspiring, but it shouldn’t be cluttered.
If you don’t know where to start, choose your wall color and furniture first, then follow with decor. Wall decor ideas you select for your bedroom will help you relax in the evening and start the day full of energy in the morning.

FAQ
How to Decorate a Bedroom Wall on a Budget?
The best thing about decorating your bedroom walls is that you can implement most of these ideas yourself without specialized skills. And as you already happen to have most of the decor items at home, you don’t need to splurge on luxury pieces.
Which Wall Should Be the Accent Color?
While the placement of the accent wall is up to your taste, there are several tricks that can help you pull it off in the best way. The most organic place for an accent wall in the bedroom is behind the headboard. Another possible option is a wall where traditional decor won’t work.
Should Every Wall Have Something on It?
Again, this is up to you, but if you want to maintain balance and keep the place from being cluttered and uncomfortable, you definitely don’t need to decorate every wall. Moreover, if your walls are too busy, the room will look smaller than it is, and some decor pieces will just be visually lost.

What Not to Put in Your Bedroom?
A simple answer to this question is don’t bring in things that disrupt your sleep. Try to stay away from electronic devices or gym equipment. Most importantly, don’t put so many things in your bedroom that it becomes cluttered and makes you restless.

A Neutral Yet Still Childish Bedroom
I hate this, particularly for a child. Kids need color. Heck, adults need color. I was in prison for 11 years. Beige, grey, brown, black, and white. Those were the only "colors" that were allowed. You all should have seen me at the airport when I was released. It was like a festival for the eyes. I saw red, purple, green, yellow, blue, pink, and all the colors in between! Two years later, I still refuse to wear anything beige, grey, brown, black, or white.
I had orange, blue and yellow. It was the smell of bleach, bologna and despair that got to me
Load More Replies...I pity these poor kids having to grow up in an ‘influencers’ house. I’ll bet they get no input into their rooms at all.
I actually like it but I'm sure it's a pain to change the sheets
Load More Replies...Accent Wall
When you think of bedroom wall design ideas, probably the first thought that comes to mind is an accent wall. Paint it or cover it with patterned removable wallpaper from floor to ceiling to instantly draw your attention.
If you're renting, or just not allowed to paint for whatever reason, an option for changing the color of any/all walls is tapestries (you don't even have to put holes in the wall anymore thanks to 3M Command Strips that are strong enough to support curtain rods). And some fabric stores will give you a discount on older fabrics (or if you purchase an entire bolt), so it can be fairly inexpensive, too.
Seasonal Decorations
Celebrate seasonal holidays in every room of your house! Put holiday-appropriate decorations like Christmas wreaths or Halloween decor in your bedroom to stay in the mood.
up until now the theme has been "relaxing, tranquil" wth theme is this?

Renovated My Daughter's Bedroom. There Are Still A Few Things That Need To Be Finished, But Overall, That Should Be Her Room Sorted For A Few Years
I don’t know why you’d be downvoted on this question. So have an upvote. The peace lily doesn’t need much light. The darker the room the darker the foliage but it will probably mean it won’t flower. As to the others the owner might do what my friend does, move them around the house every so often so they wouldn’t be stuck in the dark year round. 🙂

Pink Dorm Room Design
Ok, for dorm rooms, do you pick the room/people in it, or do they choose for you?
When you're a Freshman (1st year) you are usually assigned a roommate that you have never met before. After that you can choose to room with whoever you want, after you make friends during the year. You don't really get to pick a room your first year, although you can request a certain building. For your second year you DO get to choose your room - we had a lottery where you got assigned a number randomly, and everyone chose rooms in that order. You had to come prepared with several choices in case your first choice had already been picked. It's very popular right now for girls to buy identical things and do their rooms like this. When I was in college we just decorated our side of the room however we wanted and our roommate did the same. But I'm old. :)
