What is a boho bedroom?
A boho theme is an eclectic aesthetic which contains mixtures of textures, bold bedroom wallpaper and strong patterns, inspired by global travels. It is carefree, relaxing and laid back and perfect for a cozy bedroom decor look. A bohemian style bedroom is intensely personal, quite opposite to minimalist trends, with cushions, throws, blankets and rugs being key to the look.
Modern boho bedroom ideas
A modern trend is to mix a modern look with the boho aesthetic for a modern bohemian bedroom look. Modern boho bedrooms have a neutral base, with natural bed linen and flooring, and layering the look with brighter coloured throws and cushions and rugs. House plants are both part of the modern and boho trends so some big green leaved plants will not only add to the look but also improve the air quality in your home - an important thing when are you sleeping. A large bed frame works well in this type of room, creating a focal point - after all, it is the main feature of a bedroom, right!
Modern angular furniture teamed with the bold colours of a bohemian theme work well together and bring a sleeker, modern slant to the look.
Walls
You can either keep the walls bright white to give a sense of space and ramp up the colour with accessories or go for a bold wall or feature wall. A wall mural is also a great option. You can buy wall murals UK online and they are handmade for your size of wall and will be a real feature of the room. Try a bold botanic print or a bold print for a boho style bedroom.
A mural wall will be a great talking point and a great focal point to pin the rest of the style to.
Lighting
Ideally your bedroom will have lots of natural lighting, shaded off when necessary with oversized layers of curtains and blinds. Boho lighting is best done in a soft, peaceful way, especially in the bedroom. Use a warm white light bulb in a lamp with a soft focus. A freestanding lamp can be a great feature and also makes sure you have a table lamp by your bed so you can read at night.
Accessories
With a boho theme you don't have to worry about accessories that match - a layered look with items of similar tones works best. Think fluffy blankets, boho style rugs, plenty of cushions and lots of green plants too. Dot ornaments around the room and hang some boho artwork. The boho style is the opposite of minimalism - you want the place to feel personal and cosy, full of different textures, prints and fabrics.
Boho bedroom ideas on a budget
If you are on a budget don't let that stop you creating the boho bedroom of your dreams. Paint the walls white so you have a blank canvas and consider one feature wall. You can easily find homeware to fit this theme from thrift stores and charity shops - knitted blankets, chunky vases and retro plant pots are all great charity shop finds. You can even up-cycle some things you find with a can of spray paint so they fit the theme. For furniture keep a look out on Facebook marketplace or eBay - you can find some really great bargains there if you just take the time to look.
