Get that perfect look

Pile on the Pillows
Pile on the pillows, and don’t shy away from mixing patterns. Combine large prints with small ones, florals with geometrics.

DIY Artwork
Hanging a graphic quilt is an easy solution to the “big blank wall” issue. Complementary bed linens pull the decor together.

Put Pattern to Work
A printed bedspread, like this distinctive botanical design, does a lot of the heavy lifting when it comes to décor.

Incorporate Prints on Accent Pieces
But prints aren’t reserved for the bedcovers. They’re just as arresting when set on a modern-shaped lampshade.

Work the Walls
Nightstands and adjustable lamps affixed to walls smartly save space in a small room.

Reveal a Personal Side
Your bedroom should express your personality (not just design principles), so feel free to go a little off-center, as with the art here.

Decorate With Consistency
Note that the color and fanciful curves of the headboard are echoed by the wall decoration.

Make Your Bedroom Comfy
Top your bed with covers made for snuggling, like a down comforter. For total indulgence, choose ultra-soft eiderdown.

Choose a Focal Point
A beautiful piece of furniture becomes the focal point when angled into the room. This approach may be more efficient in your space, too.

Mix It Up
Don’t be afraid to pair up unlike pieces, as with these bed tables. A short stack of books serves to even up the lamps.
