6. Choose Nature Views

Cost: $$At homeCute mode 🌶️

Action

Nature views in art like trees or hills in soft tones add calm. They make the room feel more open and less closed in. Select ones without too many details. These prints are easy to find and usually affordable. Place them where they catch the morning light nicely.

Pro-Tip

Canvas prints reduce reflections from lamps compared to glass covered ones. They also feel warmer to the touch.

Spicy Twist

Discuss which part of the nature scene you would like to visit together.

Final Tip

Picking bedroom art takes a little time but it changes the room in a good way. Try a few of these ideas the next time you shop. The best pieces are the ones you both agree on.

Common Questions

What size art works best above a bed?

The art should be about two thirds the width of the bed. This proportion looks balanced and fills the space nicely without crowding it.

Are prints okay or should I buy originals?

Prints are a good choice for most people. They cost less and come in many styles. Original art is nice but not necessary for a good result.

How do I hang art without damaging the walls?

Use picture hanging strips for lighter pieces. They come off cleanly. For heavier art use proper anchors and check the weight limits first.
