How to Make a Small Bedroom Look Spacious

If you want to transform a cramped bedroom into a cosy one, it is simply a matter of utilising the space that you have to the best of your ability. With this in mind, here are four ways to make your small room appear spacious.

Downsize to a Double Bed
If you are thinking of ways to create the illusion of space in the smallest bedroom in the house, downsizing from a King size bed to a double bed like the ones at Bedz R Us can make a significant difference. Doing this will free up valuable floor space and instantly make the room look larger.

Create the Illusion of Space with Mirrors
A statement mirror is not only a stylish and functional addition to your room but it can also make your room appear larger. Whether your bedroom is traditional, contemporary or vintage, you can make it look larger by introducing a cleverly placed mirror. If you don’t have space for a feature mirror, you can achieve the same effect with a mirrored cabinet or shelving unit. Multiple mirrors will reflect light around your room making it feel bigger in a flash.

Minimise Bedroom Furniture
Keeping bedroom furniture to a minimum can help you to free up space and as a result your room will seem less cramped. Swap bulky bedside tables for a chest of drawers and keep as much floor space free as possible. Clever storage solutions are the key to making a room feel larger and wall mounted storage is ideal for a small space. Free standing shelves not only provide a place for everything but there are some great ideas on Pinterest that can help you turn a simply shelving system into a stunning feature wall.

Choose Large Wallpaper Prints
Pale painted walls will open up your room but that doesn’t mean that wallpaper isn’t an option. If you are a huge fan of wallpaper, you can still make the most out of the space you have by opting for large, bold prints. If you are choosing prints, be wary of opting for deep tones and dark shades as this can have the opposite effect.

You don’t have to compromise on the style of your room to maximise your space. Creating a light and airy room is easy regardless of the size of your room so follow these tips to create a spacious bedroom.
