    Default Cool Bedroom Decorating Ideas for Hot Summers



    During summer, an ideal house should have bright colours which are light and colourful. It is time to refresh the bedroom decor for the summer season.

    White Bedding


    Pack up your heavy winter bedding and replace them with 1000 thread count cotton sheets in pure white. Why white? Because it feels and looks cool and soothing. It is also easy to bleach sweat stains out of. Avoid using a blanket altogether and spread two flats sheets one on top of the other.

    Sheer White Curtains


    Add sheer, gauzy white curtains over your bedroom window for a light, fluttery spectacle. Hang the curtain pole high above the window and allow the curtains to drape over the floor, like the train of a bridal gown. You'll find cheap sheer fabrics at fabric stores. Hang the fabric with clip on curtain rings.

    Blinds

    From faux wood blinds to plantation shutters, be sure to cover your windows completely this summer. Remember that even opaque roman blinds may turn sheer in direct, hot sunlight, so try to avoid them in your bedroom.

    Light Floor Cover

    Remove any heavy shag rugs from your bedroom and replace them with a bamboo rug for summer. The hard surface will feel cool in comparison with synthetic rugs. And the earth-tone will add a visually cooling effect as well. Even over a carpet, a bamboo rug is ideal for hot summer days.

    Elegant Fan

    If you have an electrical outlet overhead (and enough clearance) consider hanging a beautiful fan over your master bed. For a floor fan, save money by buying a beautiful retro desk fan and place it on a tall, elegant bar stool.

    Cool Pillows

    Add a splash of cold colors to your summer bedroom with decorative pillows. Select pond and sea colors like blues, aquamarines, greens and purples. Check out garden centers for outdoor pillows that will look bright and resist sweat stains.

    Flower Vases

    Place a flower vase or tall glass of water by each bedside and fill it with plants from your garden. Flowers are obviously beautiful, but so are tree or shrub branches. Collect several green hues and combine them into a bouquet of leaves.

    Contrast Wall

    Paint the wall behind your bed in a cooling color, like blue or pale green. You may also wish to draw a frame on the wall and just paint the center directly behind the bed. This makes the project quick and easy, and very elegant.

    Summer Canvas

    Remove the art from your bedroom walls. The less crowded the room looks the cooler it will feel. Add a summer canvas behind the bed by framing a beautiful floral fabric in a large frame or by hanging a floral print. Paint the frame white to complement the cool white appeal of the room.

    A real nice thing to have here. If you can just look out for more possible ways here, then that would really make things even cool. If you can also click here and see all the probable choices that you can choose, then that would really help you out for the long run.

    Shades and curtains to keep the day off, make sure you have your fans turn on the air to push down to the ground and can not wait to open your windows every day of the switch until the sun no longer shines in the side of the room.

    Close the blinds and all windows during the day, keeping out as much direct sunlight as possible. At night, when the temperature comes down, open the windows to let fresh cool air circulate through your room.

    This summer, bring the temperature down by designing your bed room for summer. Complete your room with a cool springtime zephyr using attractive lovers. Pull away wetness with chilling bed linens and mats. And enjoy the fun of designing with surprising items like a bath tub and hay caps.

    Bedroom is the only space where we get peace after the whole day;as this is the space where we sleep and restore our energy. It should be colored either in pastels or in light color with very minimal heavy furniture apart from the cupboards to store the clothes. Also the paintings and wall art should very light and not too loud. Apart from the decorative the bed covers and the curtains should also be picked according to the mood to be set in the room , sheer or linen or something in net. D'decor gives so many ready options with suggested themes and color schemes to decide from.
