If your bedroom is feeling a little bland, you can easily spice things up if you have a good foundation. A suite of bedroom furniture that provides a bed, nightstands and a dresser makes for good design bones for a bedroom.

This bedroom is a great example of having good bones. The cream colored bedroom suite is a nice way to begin to decorate the bedroom. The neutral cream color allows you to go in any direction with wall, floor and accent colors. You could stick with the neutrals and layer in deeper neutrals like grey on the walls, pillows or duvet.

Color can be applied on the walls and windows as well. Paint is a quick and inexpensive way to bring color into a room. Curtains can also be used to add color and pattern to the space. Smaller pops of color could be done in accent pillows, a colorful lampshade, or a lampshade trimmed with bright ribbon. Swapping out the lamp for a colorful one is another idea.
If you prefer neutral walls, add color to the walls with artwork or a hanging. You could frame a collection of family photos—great for a bedroom. Paintings and prints are other ways to bring color onto the walls without painting the wall.
