~COLOURS!~
Colours, Colours, Colours! 
There is never anything wrong with just a nice bit of colour! The splash of excitement can be put in anywhere! 
~Patterned Curtains
~Cushions
~Duvet set
~Accessories (Check out: "That Cute Little Touch" ~Check out my article for more!)

How do i use color most effectively?

I divide color into two main categories
~ Neutral and Pastels.
~Bright Bold Statement colours.

With Neutrals and Pastels, paint all your walls the same colour, and add the bursts of flavor through other pieces. Maybe a Big statement piece ~Check out my article for more!

Bright Bolf Statement Colours:

Be very careful! Painting all your bedroom walls a bright vibrant color is the same as pasting a bold wallpaper over all the walls!
1.Lets use the color Red as an example. When applying red to your room, only add it to half the walls in the room. So if you had 4 main walls , add it to two of them, the other two splash on a neutral colour! You can have the wall corresponding or beside each other, which ever you think is best, i couldn't say my opinion without seeing the room myself! 
This house has chosen to use red as a feature wall!

ORThe World of Wallpapers!There is another option! paint all your walls that vibrant colour, but tone the room down by using neutral colours for furnishings!    

Some chose to combine both, and have neutral furnishing, and not all the walls painted. It really depends on the room, and what you are trying to achieve!
