Creating a Natural Guest Bedroom Decor

September 13, 2010 by Dan

When guests come to stay, make their experience as relaxing as possible with a natural guest bedroom decor.  By incorporating natural elements into the room’s design, you will be creating a room that is not only peaceful, but that is also eco-friendly.  Think outside the box when designing this type of guest room decor to come up with ideas that will be easy on your wallet, as well as the environment.

Wall Covering

Paint is the most traditional wall covering and the low odor paints that are currently on the market make it easy to protect the environment inside while also being beneficial to the environment outside.  The paint comes in a variety of colors, from common bright tones to the earthy hues that are perfect for a natural decor.  To create a peaceful feel, choose a color that has warm undertones and calming appeal.  Sage greens, sea blues and even calm lavenders are all great choices for adding color to the space in a natural, unobtrusive way.  These colors also make excellent backdrops for natural wreaths and turtles metal wall art that can accentuate the calming feel of the room.

Furniture

The furniture in the guest bedroom should be as calming as the wall color.  Bold, geometric designs have no place in a room intended to be a natural, earth friendly haven for guests.  Instead, choose a low-profile bed that is comfortable and well-made.  A side table and dresser are also required for convenience and comfort.  Do not forget to include a comfortable chair where guests can sit to have a quiet moment after the day’s events.  Generally speaking, the furniture should be understated and simple in design.

Bedding and Linens

Natural, organic cotton bedding and linens are excellent options for a natural guest bedroom design.  Against a colored wall, white sheets and comforters not only look stunning, but also provide a feel of relaxation that busy prints or patterns cannot achieve.  If you have chosen a white or cream color for the room’s walls, purchase organic bedding in a soft, muted color that evokes a sense of calmness.  Warm, pale colors are the best at portraying a feeling of relaxation.

Wall Decor

Multi-functional wall decor is the best option for a nature inspired guest room, because it combines practicality with beauty.  For example, butterfly metal wall hangings with votive candle holders are a beautiful choice for accenting walls with light and charm.  A tree wall sculpture would also have the same affect and help to incorporate the feel of nature in the room.

Do not discount the powerful impact that nature inspired decor can have on a guest’s ability to relax and be at peace in an unfamiliar setting.  By taking the time to include natural elements and calming colors in the room’s decor, you create a space that friends and family will love to visit.  Simple designs, natural colors and multi-functional pieces can be the key to unlocking nature’s influence in your guest room decor.
