sprucing up the bedroom decor
Hi everyone!
I ususally post on the bump, but have been getting into the nest lately!
Was wondering if anyone could reccomend some inexpensive ways to spruce up the decorating in our bedroom. RIght now, we have white walls (which we can't paint because we rent) with a few pictures...but it just seems kind of cold and stark. Anyone have any go-to ideas to make a room warmer, more welcoming and just...prettier?'
Thanks!

Re: sprucing up the bedroom decor
We cannot paint either and have made do with our white walls and put color everywhere else. Floor to ceiling curtains (we have velvet ones in our bedroom which ups the comfort factor) colorful duvet, large artwork, a colorful rug. Even a large potted plant adds life and color. I also have a chair in a fabulous color and pattern.
A great book I can suggest for inspiration is Jonathan Adler on Happy Chic Colors. He has a lot of rooms with white walls and they all look wonderful.
Thanks everyone! ALL great ideas! I am going to look into inexpensive curtains. There are none on our windows now, and not even rods or anything to hang any (just bare windows), so I will have to start from scratch-- but I bet that will help a lot. I will let you know how it goes!
