At the end of a long, hard, tiring day, it is always nice to enter the bedroom and to get into bed. It is bringing a sense of calm to what can often be a busy and chaotic day. People rightly spend a lot of time and thought on the interior design of the bedroom to ensure that it creates this feeling of calm, comfort and relaxation as soon as we enter. To this end, lighting is important, with soft, warm lighting often being the go-to as it helps give a soothing atmosphere. A neutral colour scheme for the room, blackout curtains and a small plant or two can help to bring about a tranquil vibe. But let's not forget the picture frames. It's important that we choose the correct frames that will complement the feel we are trying to create.
How to choose the correct picture frames for the bedroom
There is no one-size-fits-all solution regarding deciding which picture frames work best in the bedroom. This is because we all have different characters, and this character is something that should shine out when designing each room in your property. Yes, colour and style may well be similar in most people's decisions, to create a cosy and relaxing feel, but it really would be a shame if you were not able to show your personality in other respects.
To fit with the comfortable, relaxed, warm and calming feel that we are looking to achieve, wooden frames are very much recommended. They also provide a certain rustic and cosy vibe. Wood is seen to bring in warmth and texture, which helps to add to the overall comfort of the room.
Metallic frames (brass, gold, black) are often seen as providing a more luxurious touch, and they are seen as sleek and minimalist. They are very much in vogue at the moment.
Canvas floating frames are also extremely popular at present and are especially ideal for small spaces. They offer a contemporary method of framing canvas paintings that are already mounted on a wooden stretcher frame. The gap of about 5mm between the canvas and frame gives the impression that the canvas is floating inside the frame.
Mismatched picture frames provide a great way to truly show your character. The more mismatched, the more wild and hip you're seen to be! These types of frames allow you to express your individuality and style. They feel eclectic and personal.
Mirrored or glass frames are often thought to be suited for feminine bedrooms. They look especially impressive when paired with soft colours and plush textures like velvet or silk bedding. And they offer sleek, reflective designs that effortlessly complement modern decor.
Vintage or ornate picture frames are perfect for enhancing the decor of bedrooms and promise to infuse the space with a timeless aesthetic.
The above are just six of the more popular options of picture frames for the bedroom. Several other frames may be more suited to your personality.
