For many people, a bedroom is so much more than simply a place to sleep. A bedroom can be a refuge, a place to escape the demands of everyday life and a place to find that sometimes needed silence and solitude. Simple bedroom decorating ideas can help you turn your bedroom into a beautiful but relaxing retreat.
Updating the look of your bedroom doesn't have to involve costly renovations or major purchases. By creatively using accessories and smaller pieces of furniture, you can create the look you want on a budget. Here are our top five bedroom decorating ideas.
Bedroom decorating idea #1: Paint
One of the best ways to give your bedroom a lift is to paint the walls. Inject some of your favourite colour into your bedroom by giving the walls a fresh new coat of paint. Your bedroom will feel brighter and cleaner. Try a bold new colour or a soft neutral.
Bedroom decorating idea #2: Blinds and curtains
Try changing the look of your bedroom by changing the blinds or curtains. Curtains are available in a wide variety of patterns and fabrics. Choose a colour that works with your theme or try something entirely different. Sheer drapes and velvet curtains are two of today's hottest trends.

Thanks, that is useful for me.
I have a super small bedroom with cherry/brown coloured floors, a black rod iron day bed with all white linens. I'm clueless as to what colour to paint my walls and what colour of dresser I should get. Please help.
My bedroom has sage green walls with bakers white trim and light oak hardwood floor. My two bedside tables are bakers white as well. My bedding is a sage green stipe with beige and soft yellow I am not sure what colour I should put on my windows Thanks Janice
