If you are thinking about redecorating your bedroom take some time to consider some things before you start instead of just jumping in, this will help you to create a bedroom that is absolutely perfect for you.

What color scheme? The theme you chose for your room may determine or at least influence this for you, for example a minimalistic feel usually requires light colours and plain patterns and shades. However, there are some themes that allow you to be more creative with colour, so if you want a colourful room that has the wow factor, think about this when you are choosing your theme.

What furniture: the likelihood is you already have some bedroom furniture, so first you need to decide what you are going to keep and place in your newly designed bedroom and what can be thrown away/sold/donated. After you have done this take a look at what furniture you have to go back into the room, the design and feel of this furniture may determine what theme you ultimately choose. For example, furniture that is rustic and heavy looking would be perfect for an old-fashioned theme but completely unsuitable if you are going for a minimalistic theme.
