There are countless ways to make the bedroom adorable, and using a bedroom furniture set is among those that give the most eye-catching results. It’s also one of the decorating approaches that are easy to work with, and one that results in a simple but elegant look. Bedroom furniture sets were designed to make decorating painless. When you know how to match them up with the right accessories, there is no reason why you shouldn’t give any bedroom a million-dollar look.
All bedrooms can do with a furniture set, regardless of how small or large they are. The only thing to bear in mind is that an extravagant large bedroom should be paired with an equally large bedroom set. Likewise, pair a smaller bedroom with a much more compact bedroom furniture set. Let’s see some of the pointers that will make choosing a bedroom set enjoyable.
Know your room dimensions well
It’s what allows you to choose some furniture designs and not others. Room dimensions have everything to do with room size and layout. The size will determine how big the furniture can be and the maximum furniture sizes that you can get for the bedroom. Take measurements of the bedroom’s length, width and breadth if you’re not sure of the exact size of each wall. If you don’t do this, you’re likely to end up with the wrong size of bedroom furniture set. Either it will be too large or too small. Always important to keep things proportional and using room size as your guide is the only way to ensure you don’t end up with this problem.
Consider the style/theme you want to adopt
The kind of furniture you would use for a classic look is different from what you would use for a contemporary, traditional or industrial-style look. Each decor style calls for a different furniture style. Follow this basic principle to create the desired look. Fortunately, furniture manufacturers cater to all known decor styles when making bedroom furniture sets. Contemporary bedroom furniture sets remain one of the most popular styles, with tens of new designs added to the category every now and then.
That’s not to say bedroom furniture sets in other styles are hard to come by. You’ll just as easily come across traditional bedroom furniture sets, antique bedroom furniture sets, vintage-style bedroom furniture sets, and more sets in a range of other popular styles.
Make colour your friend
It doesn’t matter what style you go for, a bit of colour will make it all the more remarkable. Not to mention how a pop of any bright hue has the proverbial magical touch that instantly lifts the mood of any room. Achieve this using colourful accents or by painting strategic sections of the furniture in the desired colour.
Pick your material
Bedroom furniture sets come in a choice of materials. Buy one in any of the popular materials like solid wood, engineered wood or metal. You can also buy a set from the mirrored variety, which is bound to add some oomph to your bedroom layout. Consider the pros of each material before making a final decision to buy any particular one.
Pay special attention to any combination materials used, including padding and glass. If the frame is constructed from a solid material buy you suspect that the adjoining padding is inferior in quality, for instance, you can be sure that the furniture won’t last as long as you anticipate without calling for repairs. The joinery between two materials should also be expertly joined so that the likelihood of such bits coming apart is low.
Design
The range of bedroom furniture sets varies widely in design, with everything covered from simple and basic designs to more complex and sophisticated ones and everything in between. When choosing a furniture design for the bedroom, go for what complements your own style best so that the room is like an extension of you. To experiment with a new look, choose a design that is more random and atypical to what you’d ordinarily pick. It’s a sure way to embrace a new look.
That said, it’s important to remember that not all bedroom furniture sets are the same. Some sets have more units than others. So this is something you want to consider when choosing yours. Some designs will only have a bed, nightstands, dresser and wardrobe while others will have a more comprehensive composition that includes a headboard, vanity, bench, and jewelry armoire in addition to the four other items aforementioned.
Prices vary widely but there’s a bedroom furniture set for every budget. There are affordable, entry level models; ridiculously priced, high-end models, and a host of mid-price varieties in between. You should be able to identify a set that’s right for your pocket. And because of this wide variation in both design and price, you’ll not have to comprise by settling for a design you don’t like just because it is the cheaper option. The design variety in every price range is impressive and you’ll more often than not find several sets in your preferred price range that you can choose from.
With the right timing, you’ll save some cash on your bedroom furniture set. While some stores offer discounts randomly throughout the year, with most stores, there are known low-price seasons. Holidays, seasonal and clearance sale periods are known to be prime times for discounted offers. You’ll probably get yourself a bargain if you buy your bedroom set at one of these times. Also be on the lookout for low, introductory offers on new products, yet another period when you can save some money on furniture.
Take the time to compare different bedroom furniture sets before choosing one. This is the only way you can compare different designs against each other and identify the one that’s a good match for you. Looking at many different sets also gives you the confidence of knowing that you chose the best set when you finally make up your mind about which bedroom furniture set to go for.
