Hi. I noticed you loved a cherry blossom design in your bedroom ideabook. Why not buy a stencil and have a go at doing it yourself? http://www.hennydonovanmotif.co.uk/cherry_blossom.htm if you want to keep to a light look paint the ŵall in a soft beige/taupe and stencil in a soft white. Alternatively look at pale golds on the White wall or the beige etc. Alternatively look at blossom wallpapers, wallpaperdirect have a few. Does the bed need to go there? I'm wondering if it could go on the opposite ŵall so you have the feature ŵall oppsoite the door

Hello sehinds,

As per Minnie's suggestion of cherry blossom.. It might be worth a research into a cherry blossom wall light.. I think Habitat used to do one.. Also places like Tse Tse.. They can be lovely in the evenings and make the bedroom rather cosy... Having something lovely on the walls during the day could also be rather nice.. The other thing you can do is take a photograph and have it made as either wall covering or paper or cut into 3 panels which is quite oriental.. This way you can hang them where you like above the bed or opposite.. Look for interesting soft furnishings like the cushions in my mood board, they are an oversized section of a cherry blossom branch on silk...... : ))

Hi. That's a shame re the layout but it will still look lovely. I did think it would be bespoke hence the stencil suggestion (they are easy I promise as I've managed it!) Laura Ashley also do their oriental garden wallpaper in a soft gold which you may like as it's very subtle. Or bouf.com do a decal you may like in white and grey if you were again to paint the ŵall in a soft beige. They are also easy to apply! I'd also do a search in ŵall murals, a few places do van gogh's almond blossom but it's with the turquoise background, could look stunning though! When you choose your curtains perhaps hang the pole higher and it will give some height to the room. Good luck!

I must have been slow typing! Or look at AJ's or ASV's suggestions!

Minnie 101, I love this wallpaper. Thank you very much you given me something to think about.

Welcome sehinds.. Mood boards take me minutes.. but I don't just do styling I do design too!.. Enjoy your weekend too : ))

Hello,If you feel comfortable in your room than you don't need a feature wall. However, to me the wall it looks a bit plain so personally I would add something to it. Even a nice framed artwork could do it.

St James Design Interiors Ltd - Thanks, I totally agree it's very plain at present. Currently looking at texture wallpaper that goes with neutral colour.

Hello,

A textured one is a great choice, my parents had their walls covered with textured wallpaper and the outcome was just amazing, very elegant in all our rooms.

If you're not sure on a feature wall, that could mean that you shouldn't go for it. It's to make a statement and if you're not sure what you want that to be then perhaps it's not the best decision for you. Have you thought about making a statement with the furniture and accessories instead of on the walls. Choose fun trinkets around the room, an interesting lamp or lampshade and make a statement with patterned bed linen. That way you can change things around easier if you ever feel the mood, without the excessive DIY.

Love your website. Thanks for introducing me to it.

If you just decorated and don't want to start with the paintbrush again, I would purchase a new headboard one of those really tall ones that go half way up the wall (Or make one?) Use velvet for the headboard and if you want to keep pale with the walls you can have a real standout colour on the headboard, ie pale blue walls with dark purple headboard, make the bed a real treat to look at this will detract from the poor layout.

Use patterned or fluffy fabrics for cushions....overdo the cushions have lots & different shaped ones too. For the winter get two summer weight duvets instead of 1 winter one and put them in two 'nearly matching' covers fold them over each other as you have done with the sheets the bouncier the look the better. With your odd layout and tight space I would take the look up as this is where your space is. A tall standard lamp at the side of the bed instead of the usual bedside lamps? Think soft fabric shades. For reading light purposes, make the standard lamp tall and thin and attach one of those small clip on lights to the stand.

For your main light think glass style chandelier pendants. Or a pale fabric one with the glass droplets on it. Go for the best you can afford to avoid the tacky looking ones (Dunelm do some reasonable ones) Think hanging wooden hearts on ribbon from the wardrobe door. (I like The Range for little bits) and a lovely silvery diamante style photo frame for the dresser.

Another small point which will require some thought but can be easily done with a few DIY skills......raise the curtain rail up the wall, make it much wider than the window too and have your curtains really long....another romantic treat is to have them skim or even fold onto the floor, it gives a dreamy floaty look. It also has the advantage of making the window look bigger. Romantic bedroom décor is a perfect opportunity to get in touch with your girly fluffy side. Enjoy.

Hi credz4

Wow, thank you, I love your suggestion and will most certainly follow through on a lot of them

Thank you so much, I will post a picture when I finally completed the room.

Best regards

Sue

Thanks Sue....I do get carried away, you have a brilliant blank canvas there to start on so enjoy it, then you can hide away in your new Boudoir! ;-) Charlie

Dear Susan,

Considering the layout of your bedroom I would probably keep all walls the same color. You might consider adding interest with scatter cushions or more colorful bedding.

Another solution would be to display some art works above the bed in a creative way.

Hello, Have you seen http://www.ixxidesign.com/producten/beeldenbank/kunst/van-gogh? If you like Blossom prints they have Van Gogh's Almond Blossom print that you can make as big as you like to fit your wall or headboard space. I was very tempted to use this when redecorating my bathroom recently and will probably do a feature wall in my bedroom when I get round to it. They seem to have a large image bank of other art work if the colour is too much. What I like is that you can take the design with you if you move, unlike expensive wallpaper! Good luck with yours!

Astrid

This would work,

You more than 5 years late

Well you never know they might still be looking! (Apologies didn't see the date!)

Thank you and yes still here and looking for a new design for the bedroom, as my style has changed and this bedroom has been the last and neglected room to be decorated and styled in my home.

how about some simple classy paneling? and paint that wall a colour
or a bright mural would go really well with the current bed dressings
