Top Ten Bedroom Decorating Ideas
from My Design Portfolio
Ten Bedroom Decorating Ideas from my Design Portfolio.
The Bedroom is by far one of my Favorite spaces to design and decorate.
It can be a fun, serious, a room that is a sanctuary, a room for guests, a room for kids, the list goes on and on. I think that’s why I love to design and decorate bedrooms the options are endless. Could be because I have design SO Many! Every project has 2-3 and sometimes 4 bedrooms. Practice makes perfect? I’ve gathered a variety of bedrooms from my portfolio. Had to limit it to ten…could have gone on and on, but decided to start with ten.
1. Painted Trim
In this bedroom, I used a paint technique that is a favorite of mine. Instead of painting the walls a color, I painted the trim – ALL- of the trim a color and left the walls a neutral white. When I say I painted all the trim that includes the doors, baseboard, crown molding, and even the shutters. When I ordered the shutters I gave them the color that was selected for the trim and they were delivered in the exact matching blue to all of the trim.

2. Traditional Mahogany Carved Poster Bed
Neutral accents balance the ornamental bed
This is a project I did in Rye, New York, and the bed is an old Ralph Lauren carved poster bed that was the inspiration for the entire room. I like to tone down heavy with neutral and lighten up heavy pieces. In this room, the natural cotton and jute area rug is a great neutral to all of the rich dark wood and the striped sheer draperies, simple cotton coverlet and woven wood blinds are compliment the bed and let it be the focal point of the room.
3. Blue and White
Soft Subtle and Serene
Two-tone and simple – just blue and white. The patterned pillows and bed blanket add a little extra interest in the room and were the inspiration. 
4.Coastal Cabana Bunk Room
Florida Fun Bright and Cheery
There is room for Everyone in this Guest House Bunk Room. The room was designed for fun and kids with a bright vibrant stripe on the sofa along with a couple of prints and a simple cotton area rug.
5. Blue as the Main Attraction
Shades of Blue
I usually start any room with a pattern and this oceanfront bedroom was no exception. The euro sham fabric is a Beautiful Travers fabric (LOVE!) that was the inspiration for a calm serene master suite that overlooks the Atlantic Ocean.
