Levis4Floors By Levis4Floors | December 31, 2018

Are you struggling to make your small master bedroom work for you? Fear not; with six unique tips, you will be able to proudly claim your small bedroom as your own. Let’s take a look!

Expert Tips for a Small Master Bedroom:

1. The Right Palette.

A color scheme can make or break an entire room, especially if you struggle with a small space. There is a considerably large controversy in the design community on whether or not small rooms should incorporate light or dark colors. Half say that light colors will open up the space, whereas the other half say that dark colors do not show how small the space really is. Whether or not you agree with the light or dark theory, we suggest that you stick to a neutral palette throughout your small space. The softer hues help to reduce attention that is often drawn to the space’s size. Plus, you can contrast the neutrals with light or dark accent pieces. Experts recommend avoiding bright colors in smaller spaces to help not overwhelm the room’s design. 

2. Smart Storage.

When you live in a small space, you have to get thrifty. Whether you are storing containers underneath your bed or framing the room with built-ins, you can find extra storage in places all over the room. Just be sure to be on the lookout for extra nooks and crannies that could serve as a storage space.

3. Elegant Finishes.

If you feel defeated while decorating your small master bedroom, you can add back elegance with accent pieces and finishes. From your light fixtures to dresser’s hardware, you can incorporate some beautiful, unique decor without overwhelming the room.

4. Unique Headboard.

Headboards are an interesting topic when it comes to small master bedrooms. Depending on your personal taste, you may decide to opt out of having a headboard. If the room does not allow the extra space, you can always get creative with unique style headboards. Decorative wallpapers can accent the wall much like a headboard but save a lot of space. You can also paint the wall to create another type of visual headboard. The options are truly endless. 

5. Matchy, Matchy.

Experts recommend making your furniture color, the wall color. This theory may be for the brave at heart. If done correctly, it can create clean lines and open up the space visually.

6. Bold Stripes.

Horizontal stripes can be a useful ally in decorating a small space. When placed horizontally, the lines help to create a more significant visual span of the room. You may want to try this idea as an accent wall or even on your bedspread.
