When you like your room to be simple and yet classic at the same time then don’t use the golden color in your bedroom design and choose hot colors and cold colors between the furniture and the wall colors. Say, you like the white color in your wall painting you should choose hot color in your furniture designs like red family, brown family or the natural wood colors.
The white, creamy & gray colors for the wall painting are also useful especially when you want to make it classic & give a wide look to your room.

The Bed


What is a Visco Elastic Foam Mattress
MATTRESS
The most main and important part of a bedroom is the bed its self. In choosing the right bed ,first you want to start out with the mattress. Because uncomfortable mattresses can be very unattractive in your bedroom and also can be very painful for all those nights you take a rest.
Foam mattresses have increased significantly in popularity over the past several years due to a combination of extraordinary comfort and nearly perfect support qualities. Although memory foam was developed more than 40 years ago through the NASA Ames Research Center, it has only taken off recently as a mattress component due to a decrease in material and manufacturing costs. So what is the difference between a memory foam mattress and a visco elastic foam mattress? The answer is that “visco elastic foam mattress” is a technical term used to describe “memory foam.” In other words they are one in the same. Now that we know these terms can be used interchangeably, it’s important to discuss the specific qualities that give a visco elastic memory foam mattress it’s “memory.”
Foam mattresses excel at conforming to your body – a function that is referred to a mattress’s memory. The degree of density with which the mattress is constructed influences the degree of memory it will have. In general, mattresses that are denser will perform better than those that are less dense. Of course, there is a direct relationship between how dense a mattress is and its final cost. The reason a higher density foam mattress or even a visco elastic memory foam mattress topper costs more is that they tend to conform better to the body and are slower to rebound from their memory state. Perhaps the most notable reason is that a denser mattress will provide more support and will generally last longer than a less expensive version.
Most experts recommend purchasing a memory foam mattress with no less than 3 pounds of density, as mattresses with a lower density will simply not give sufficient support. After all, proper support is the number one reason why people choose a foam mattress over a traditional spring or coil mattress. Another important consideration when purchasing a foam mattress is that they tend to hold on to body heat well, keeping some sleepers too warm. This is particularly true with a higher density mattress, so be sure you have the option of trying out your mattress for at least 30 days to evaluate it for yourself. Another important consideration are comforters, blankets and other bedding, since some materials like down or wool can increase the warmth even further. Another separate concern for some sleepers is the potential for memory foam mattresses to “off-gas” or release chemical odors when new. While the odor generally decreases quickly, many sleepers remain sensitive to it. Again, be sure to try out your mattress before committing to it for the long haul.
A common companion purchase for those buying a memory foam mattress is a memory foam pillow. As with mattresses, there are several variations of memory foam pillows to suit individual preferences and sleeping habits, so be sure to choose the one that bests suits you. I have purchased to two types of memory foam pillows and prefer the denser traditional looking pillow, since I tend to sleep mostly on my back. I have had this particular pillow for about 5 years and it is just as supportive as the day I purchased it.
While foam mattresses are generally more expensive than traditional spring mattresses, the lifespan of a foam mattress is significantly greater. For example, most spring mattresses are rated between just 5-7 years while a quality visco elastic mattress can last up to 20 years before needing to be replaced. Apart from being a better investment than a traditional mattress, a foam mattress will also provide better support and superior comfort.



BED FRAME
The average person spends about a third of their life sleeping. Ensuring that you have a comfortable and sturdy bed is very important.

Arguably the most important part of your bed will be the mattress. The mattress is what you rest on and it's important that it be both comfortable and firm enough to provide adequate back support.

Another part of the bed that many people don't consider as important is the bed frame. The bed frame is what the mattress and in some cases, the box spring rests on. Choosing the right bed frame can also have an impact on whether or not you feel back pain after waking up in the morning.

One of the most crucial details to consider when choosing a bed frame is its height. The height of the bed frame will directly change the height of your mattress. It's wise not to choose a bed frame that will place your mattress at a height that is uncomfortable for you to get on and off of it.

You can purchase a bed frame that is made of metal with wheels. This type of bed frame is normally sold in a standard height and positions the mattress at a height that is ideal for most people. Another positive aspect of this type of bed frame is that it can be moved for ease in cleaning. Cleaning behind and under the bed is often overlooked and this can lead to allergies as well as other health problems.

Although a metal bed frame isn't very attractive that can easily be taken care of. Most linen stores now sell dust ruffles which are attractive covers for a box spring. These cover the bed frame completely keeping it out of sight while at the same time adding a nice finishing touch to the bed linens.

A very popular choice in a bed frame for children is a wooden frame. Often this type of bed frame will have several drawers or shelves so that the child can keep toys or clothing in their bed. Parents often refer to this type of bed frame as a captains or mates bed which makes the child feel they are going on an adventure each time they go to sleep.

A bed frame crafted from wood doesn't necessarily have to be found in the room of a child. There are many fashionable and attractive styles available for double, queen and king size beds as well. This type of bed frame can be custom made to suit the decor of the bedroom it will be placed in. Many people take advantage of this and choose a color for the wooden bed frame that complements their room.

Regardless of which type of bed frame you choose it's wise to remember that investing a bit of extra money in a sturdy and well made bed frame will save you in the long run. Not only will you have to replace it much less often but a quality bed frame will give your mattress support which will result in a better and more comfortable sleep for you. 






BEDDINGS
Generally speaking, when decorating your bedroom, you should aim for colours that aren’t too bright – both with your bedding sets and the wall colours themselves. Neutral colours will be much more soothing and relaxing for when you are trying to get to sleep and you will find that a large proportion of bedding comes in the sorts of neutral tones and colours which look great from an interior design point of view.

The majority of homeowners will decorate their bedroom walls and choose furniture for the room before they turn their attentions to the bedding that they will use. It is important to make any bed linen choices based on the various different forms of bedroom furniture and fittings that you have - such as wardrobes or lined curtains. The colour of your bedding is likely to be chosen based on your own personal preferences but you should aim for relaxing hues if you’re looking for a comfortable night of sleep.

You should also consider lighting when picking your bedding because this will clearly have a bearing on how the bed linen appears. The bed is the first thing that will catch a person’s eye when they enter a bedroom and it is easy to really turn your bed into a focal point with some carefully chosen luxury bedding.

Simple Bedroom Tips





Are you currently in search of some simple ways to make your bedroom more attractive and inviting? Perhaps you’re tired of coming home to the same tired bedroom décor day after day and you’re looking to change things up a bit. Whatever your reasons, you’ve come to the right place for helpful bedroom décor tips and bedroom decorating ideas. Although you’ll certainly find what you’re looking for in terms of bedroom décor ideas by browsing my blog, there are a couple of general points we’d like to make about how to properly go about enhancing the appearance of your home.
When thinking about bedroom decoration there are really only two ways to go about achieving the look you’re after – you can venture out on your own using your creative imagination or you could take a simpler approach and follow established décor trends. The choice is up to you and perhaps you’ll choose to combine the two approaches to achieve a look that’s both trendy and personal.

Get Creative And Use Your Imagination
There’s something to be said about achieving a unique look when it comes to decorating bedrooms, and while most people would love to add their own personal touches to their bedrooms, actually achieving this goal can be challenging. Many homeowners fear that they’ll commit a fashion faux pas while others feel that they just don’t have what it takes to transform a blank canvas into something interesting. We’re here to give you the confidence that you need to make your home comfortable and visually appealing while also allowing you to place your own signature on things.
Creating a design scheme on your own can be an effective way to generate a look and feel that’s completely unique, though there are some important considerations to be made prior to getting started. It’s always a good idea to plan things out on paper prior to making any firm commitments. You will want to list things out by their location and function, which will allow you to focus on one particular area at a time. You should also for a basic budget for your project, assigning a specific amount to each component of your overall plan. In other words, you might allocate a certain amount of money toward the purchase of a mattress, and some other portion toward the purchase of wall paint and so forth.


Seek Inspiration From Others
The world of interior design is vast, which is why it’s a mistake to simply ignore the design strategies that are working well for others. We’re not suggesting that you outright copy the designs of others (though you certainly can); rather, take some inspiration form what others have achieved. The most effective bedroom decorating ideas are often a hybrid between existing ideas and those that come directly from the homeowners themselves.
A great place to find bedroom décor ideas is to search through various interior design magazines or online sites. In addition to the information we supply here at Bedroom Décor Tips, you will find a wealth of information from other sites and publications. Some other great places to seek inspiration are actual buildings, public places and even by watching television. Because interior designers generally help design television sets, it’s often possible to get a glimpse of what’s in style at the moment by simply watching a bit of prime time entertainment.
As you can see there are many strategies and angles to take when coming when it comes to giving your bedroom a visual boost. Whether you choose to do things on your own through a hired interior designer, the information and tips presented on our site can help you achieve the look you’re going for. Perhaps the most important lesson to take away is that you should feel comfortable with the final result. Don’t let anyone tell you what’s right or wrong with your design unless you feel that there needs to be a change. Oh, and don’t forget – have fun!
