This blog post is all about cottage decor bedroom ideas.
Hey fellow cottage decor lovers! Today we’re exploring how we can incorporate the cottage style in the bedroom! The bedroom is where we go to relax, wind down, and sleep. I’m here to give you all the best ideas and tips to make your bedroom feel like a cozy cottage getaway. Let’s dive into these 15 cottage-style bedroom ideas.
The Best Cottage Decor Ideas for the Bedroom
1. Bring Vintage Art Into the Bedroom
Bringing art into the bedroom is an easy way to make a big impact. For the cottage decor style, go for vintage paintings or botanical drawings. Beautiful old-school frames makes all the difference. I love the idea of displaying multiple pieces of art on a shelf or ledge above the bed.
2. Small Floral Print Details
For romantic cottage vibes, floral prints are the way to go when it comes to bedsheets. Preferably smaller prints like the one pictured above. Avoid loud and colorful patterns. Instead, go for soft, muted colors and delicate prints! You can also mix and match different floral prints and colors!
3. Bring in Vintage Furniture
For your furniture, you want it to look like it’s sturdy, vintage, and built to last a lifetime! Look for unique pieces in thrift stores, Facebook marketplace, garage sales and antique shops.
4. Give Wallpaper a Go
If I were to redo our bedroom, I’d 100% without a doubt add some kind of floral wallpaper! I feel like it’s the perfect cottage touch! Wallpaper is a great way to make your bedroom feel unique and nostalgic. I love the green and white print in the picture!
5. Board and Batten Wall
A board and batten wall is classic, and fits perfectly in the cottage aesthetic. You really can’t go wrong if you decide to dress one or more of your walls with board and batten.
6. Botanicals and Linen
Light linens and flowers scream English countryside cottage. Therefore, try to add at least a few elements of floral and linen! I love the example above with the light linen curtains, flowers on the nightstand, and botanical framed posters. Sooo charming!!
7. Wooden Dresser
A dresser is a great accent piece that is also highly functional. A wooden one like the one in the photo above looks incredible in a cottage-style bedroom.
8. Natural Light
If you are lucky enough to have windows in your bedroom, make them the center of attention. Let the natural light illuminate the room. Get some light-colored curtains that you can close at night when it’s time to sleep.
9. Rustic Elements
I love the look of rustic wood and ceiling beams, and it’s definitely a look that can be brought into the bedroom. I love how cozy this bedroom looks with it’s slanted roof, ceiling beams and wooden bedframe! They did a great job at balancing light and dark elements.
10. Light Colors
A countryside cottage is supposed to feel fresh and relaxing. Especially in the summer, try to decorate your bedroom with light colors. Paint the walls in a neutral white, greige or sage to give it a serene feeling.
11. Lots of Layers
Layering textures creates a super cozy look! Mix light linens with heavier quilts and a variety of throw pillows. Also, don’t be afraid to mix and match patterns! Floral, gingham, and striped all look good together. But I would avoid large and heavy prints.
12. Gingham Pattern
If you’re wondering which patterns to use in your home decor, gingham is a safe bet. It gives a countryside, vintage vibe, and that is exactly what we are going for!
13. Lots of Texture
Once again, layering textures really is one of the keys to achieving a cozy and comforting space. Don’t be afraid to use lots of throw pillows. As long as you don’t mind spending some time making the bed.
14. Natural Colors
Paint color choice is a personal preference, and I believe you can achieve the cottage look using a variety of colors. However, I’d recommend natural and neutral colors if you’re unsure. These colors bring a sense of calm, and they are a great backdrop for decor elements in other colors!
15. Little Details
The cottage style displays itself in the little details, and I’d recommend bringing in little unique pieces here and there. A vintage chair, a pretty wardrobe, a unique painting… And don’t be afraid to add personal touches like a photo of you and your partner or a sentimental piece of art.
