Create a focal point with your bed

Your bed is the focal point of a bedroom.  The style of your home should dictate the style of your bedroom. It is important to give your bed visual weight or presence. Create a headboard with a door panel or vintage mirror or even a reclaimed wood palette. Soften the wall behind your bed with fabric or curtains.

An elegant bed does not have to be expensive or complicated. When I was a little girl my one big wish was to have a canopy bed.  To me it said, this girl is a princess! Create your own canopy with mosquito netting or soft layers of fabric. For Mother’s Day one year, my husband and son built me a birch tree bed and I covered it with layers of tulle.  Added fairy lights and I slept in Mid Summer’s Night Dream!

Romantic Vanities

Bedroom vanities do not have to be heirlooms or expensive.  Add fabric behind a dresser or small table, mirror, or lamp and over the top, she goes!

Soft Lighting

Can’t afford an elegant French chandelier for your romantic bedroom?  Try outlining a canopy with tiny fairy lights. Cover your lampshade with vintage lace for a soft romantic glow.  Finally, the most romantic light is produced by candles.  If you are fortunate enough to have a fireplace in your bedroom, fill the fire box with layers of candles for a gorgeous warm glow without the heat or hassle of building a fire.

Choose Romantic Furnishings

Every girl deserves a private retreat; intimate, ethereal, luxurious, soft, and timeless with a touch of vintage Hollywood glamour mixed with deliciously dilapidated heirlooms. Intricate carvings, gilding, Venetian mirrors, traditional caning, button tufting, and glass beading are among the details that capture the essence of classic French and European-style antique reproductions. Add luxury to your bedroom with an elegant chaise lounge or full-length Venetian mirror.

You can create a romantic and elegant aura in your bedroom. As you decorate concentrate on using all your senses. Sight, sound, touch, and smell can be used in soft and subtle ways to provide luxury and tranquility. Indulge, because you are worth it!
