Dim the lights, fluff up the pillows, and use these romantic bedroom decorating ideas to create a virtual ‘love den’ that you and your partner can escape to. There are many inexpensive romantic decorating ideas you can use to create a cozy space that will make your love life sizzle.
Romantic bedroom decorating idea # 1 – Lighting
The type of lighting you use in your bedroom can make or break your mood. Stark bright light is not romantic at all, and it’s not very flattering either. Low voltage lighting is the best choice, although it may not be practical for every day use. I recommend using a dimmer switch in the bedroom. A dimmer switch allows you to use to see clearly when you need to, but with a quick turn of the knob, you’ll have a romantic lighting effect.
Aside from low voltage lighting, candles are a MUST in any romantic setting. After all, candles symbolize romance. Place scented candles on bedside tables for a soft gentle glow. Hang candle wall sconces above or beside the bed for a romantic feel all day long. If someone in the home is allergic to candles, consider using any of these candle alternatives.
Romantic bedroom decorating idea # 2 – Privacy
Hopefully, you have a secure lock on your bedroom door to ensure privacy. Aside from a lock, though, there are other ways to achieve a sense of privacy in your bedroom. A canopy bed is a lovely idea, although they can be expensive and not in a price range everyone can afford. So, why not create your own canopy bed? With the use of a 4-point canopy net, you can have a beautiful (and affordable) canopy bed in no time at all. I recommend the Mombasa 4-point canopy available at Overstock.com. For under $ 40.00, you can create a romantic bed that you and your partner can escape to anytime.
Romantic bedroom decorating idea # 3 – Organization
Organization doesn’t sound very romantic, does it? However, if you imagine yourself in a cluttered, dirty room, you can see how a messy room can really take away from a romantic moment. By staying organized, you can ‘clear the way’ for those spontaneous moments when you get carried away and fall on the floor in a heap of passion. (Hey, it can happen!)
Keep your bedroom organized by storing clutter in attractive wicker baskets, collapsible storage, units, and under the bed storage bins. With a clean floor, you never know what may happen.
Romantic bedroom decorating idea # 4 – Bedding
A romantic bed should be soft, silky and layered with soft fluffy pillows. Use different textured throw pillows, accent blankets, and comforters to create a warm and inviting bed. The patterns you choose are entirely up to you and what you find attractive. Beautiful damasks, swirling paisleys, and whimsy white cottons are all comfortable and practical, yet warm and romantic.
Romantic bedroom decorating idea # 5 – Headboard
A headboard can quickly become the focal point of any room. In a romantic bedroom, you can get creative by using various materials and styles. Consider using a wide set mirror or a lavish room divider as a unique headboard.
A few finishing touches and your romantic bedroom is complete. Place fragrant flowers inside small vases, display a few of your favorite photographs, and quietly play your favorite romantic music.
