Cute Narrow Bedroom Decor Ideas

It can be difficult to work in a narrow bedroom because this space traditionally requires multiple pieces of furniture, such as nightstands on either side of a bed and a dresser or closet that may be difficult to fit into. This room shape can also be difficult to deal with design-wise, as overly long walls can feel endless on two sides and may not be visually interesting. The good news is that there are many ways to make the most of an oddly shaped, small bedroom without committing to a major project. Here are six narrow bedroom ideas to inspire a more design-focused, functional retreat.

Play with color

Paint both smaller walls a darker shade than the longer ones. The painted walls seem to move closer and the room appears more square and proportional than the narrow rectangle it actually is.

Optimize storage

The bed and the space beneath it are your secret weapon when it comes to maximizing storage space in a tight space. Investing in a bed that comes with drawers can do wonders for eliminating clutter and helping you get organized. You can also simply purchase some storage containers that you can slide under an existing bed frame if it’s high enough.

Clever bedside tables

If there is literally no space for a bedside table, you can use a windowsill, make a small floating shelf or simply a headboard for storage, and add some sconces to the wall. A stool or a bedside table can also serve as a bedside table and looks great.

Opt for gallery walls

Break up long walls with groups of artwork or decorations to add visual interest. However, you should avoid installing a series of frames hung side by side that are all the same color, size, and material to create a more unified look.
