Faux wood blinds are a versatile choice for an updated bedroom

Home decorators looking for a way to spruce up their bedroom can take a hint from the "bed in a box" sets that have become popular in home goods shops.

According to ContemporaryInteriorDesigns.com, the bed is the focal point around which all other design choices should be made when updating a bedroom.

"The bed is the main piece of furniture, but how you decorate that bed is where your personality shows," states the website. "When selecting your new beddings, make sure to consider the color of your carpet and walls. You would want the room the flow and not clash."

Layering different textures and complementary colors in bed coverings is important to establishing the right flow. It begins with a sheet set that will match or enhance the choice of the duvet covers, shams and coverlets that are placed on top and a bedskirt for a finished look. Homeowners can choose coverlets from a variety of fabrics and patterns.

For a window treatment, faux wood blinds are a versatile choice to go with any style to offset an elegantly decorated bed. They are available in a wide range of colors and finishes to go with either contemporary or traditional furnishings.
