Selecting and placing of furniture: While selecting furniture, keep in mind the dimensions of the room. Make sure the furniture you are selecting is functional rather than going on its looks. Light colored furniture can help your room look bigger and brighter. The bedding is the crucial part of bedroom furniture. Make sure to place the bed in a way that head board becomes the focal point. Remove unnecessary furniture to less traffic areas in the house as doing so can leave you with more floor space. Keep a chair near bedside table, which can become a cozy reading corner.

Lighting for the room: Lighting is the key feature in enhancing the look of the room. On both sides of the bed, lamps should be placed that has soft light and can make bed time reading more comfortable and a better way to save place that is occupied by huge lamps on bedside tables.

Choose an artwork that matches the style of the room. Moreover, you can place several artwork above the head area of the bed which can act as an attractive headboard. Artwork can be a masterpiece for your bedroom wall.

Curtains and flooring: When choosing curtains the fabric they are made of is important. It should be thick enough because the windows of the room need to be darkened to block sunlight and privacy should be considered. With these considerations, curtains should be attractive too. Hanging the curtains higher than the windows can make the room ceiling look higher than its actual height.

Also, furnishing the room with contrasting curtains is a better idea for making it look more beautiful.
