Even if you don't have a lot to spend you can achieve a southwestern interior design in your bedroom by changing little things, for example painting and coordinating your bedding and pillows to give your room a little bit of southwest. A top notch interior decoration can include changes to rugs, fixtures, decorative items and wall color in addition to your bed and bureaus. It's not necessary that you coordinate your bed, bureaus, and side table but the bedroom should have a variety of western style pieces. To really augment the southwestern style, go for pieces with a light stain. How you cover the floor should match your overall design style, but if you can not purchase new floors in your bedroom then work with your floors by covering them with area rugs that have a southwestern look. If you are lucky enough to be able to afford new floors, try using clay tile floors or Native American woven area rugs. Lighting is critical in most rooms and the bedroom is no exception. To go with your southwestern look, you might want to look at the style of light fixtures as well as the type. While you will be decorating with a southwestern look, you may want to look at installing metal, wood or antler chandelier with wrought iron sconces and lamps but try to steer clear of anything which is frilly cystal with prisms. Most bedrooms can benefit from a chandelier combined with lamps. A major factor when decorating your bedroom with a southwestern look is your wall paint. For this design theme the the colors can make or break the look - consider working with reds, blacks and tans and blues and oranges as a paint color. Try using a stucco plaster on the walls, or if you want something different go with paint with southwestern stencils or wallpaper borders. You don't have to get too fancy or spend a lot of money and if you want plain colored walls, simply paint the walls a neutral paint and let the accents in the room do the decorating. Decorative items are important to pulling your southwestern look together. You can dramatically alter the look of your room simply by changing the accessories! Concentrate on Choosing bedding, pillows and vases and picture frames, in that compliment your southwestern decorating style. You'll be surprised at how simple and cheap it is, and what a sizeable difference these changes make! You want to be sure to incorporate lots of American Indian pottery bowls together with water jugs in pottery and you can even try certain Mexican decorated plates to display on the walls to add some punch to your bedroom. Other decor such as horse or ranch related memorabilia can get you a room that looks like it should be in a magazine. How you dress your windows can affect your southwestern theme. To get a nice design in your bedroom you might try working with south western print on cotton or wooden blinds. There are many treatments that can be paired with this style, particularly if you match other fabrics or colors in the room, however you probably want to avoid velvet drapes and ruffles. A critical decorating area that is frequently overlooked when decorating your room is the wall space. Any wall can look great with great accessories and wall art. Try adding horse skulls, framed prints, a collection of branding irons displayed in a grouping to your bedroom walls to enhance the country style of your southwestern decorating style. Achieving a good southwestern look in your bedroom can be as easy or hard as you want it to be. Either way, paying attention to detail and coordinating your decorative accessories and furniture will help you carry out a wonderful new southwestern look that you'll have fun showing off to your friends! |
