Five Cheap Christmas Decorating Ideas for Your Bedroom

Inexpensive Christmas Decor for the Bedroom

ShawnTe Pierce
Now the living room, dining room and kitchen are full of holiday cheer, yet your bedroom still has the same brown and orange from Thanksgiving. Yes decorating a bedroom can be expensive, especially bedding, but it is time to spruce up your bedroom with a touch of Christmas decor. Explore five cheap Christmas decorating ideas for your bedroom that are under $100.00.

Christmas Decor: Color Scheme

Bedroom Christmas decorating ideas begin with choosing a color scheme. The traditional Christmas colors are green, red and white. However, other color schemes can be found during the holiday season as well such as metallic accents like gold and silver.

A white Christmas doesn't have to be just a blanket of white, with the moonlight hints of silver dance about. A color scheme of white, silver and a pale blue-green tint sets the stage for turning the bedroom into a winter wonderland. Golden hues are also great for bedroom Christmas decorating ideas. A golden color scheme would include gold, deep reds and dark greens.

Christmas Decor: Walls

Wallpaper borders are great bedroom Christmas decorations. Edging the walls of your bedroom with an elegant silver or gold foil border will fall in line with the golden color scheme. However a great wallpaper border that serves many color schemes well is the Floral Swag Wallpaper Border 12 roll pack from Christmas Central for $19.99.

Wall hangings, wreaths and holiday pictures are great wall displays. Target has a beautiful, inexpensive Christmas decor wall hanging called Christmas Morning. This 36 by 26 inch wall hanging includes the line from Joy to the World "Let Heaven and Nature Sing" and only costs $35.99.

Christmas Decor: Windows

The bedroom window(s) can open up during the day to show you the beauty of a snow covered Christmas or the enchantment of a clear, star filled Christmas night. If winter brings cold weather where you live you may need layers of curtains to help keep out the cold at night. A heavy velvet or velour curtain in a crimson or hunter green can be attractive. Sheer panels underneath in white, silver, or gold will add sparkle to your view once the sunlight or moon light hits them. Or, you may even want to opt for Christmas themed window treatments for your window Christmas decor.

Christmas Decor: Bedding

Your bedding definitely should match your overall color scheme. If you decide to use a white Christmas color scheme, then your bedding should include shades of white, light blue, silver or any combination. If you choose to use traditional Christmas decor colors then Brylane home has the Up on the Roof Total Bed Set theme starting at $59.99. You an also purchase matching window treatments for this set as well, prices range from $$24.9 to $39.99.

Christmas Decor: Accents

Bedroom Christmas decorations should also include accents. Hanging mistletoe over the bed or in the doorway is a great Christmas decor accent and a great way to sneak in extra kisses. Scented Christmas decor accents really complete the overall holiday feel for a room. Scented candles in mulberry, apple, or peppermint work well. Glade Scented Oil Candles have two new holiday scents: Apple Cinnamon and Bayberry Spice. You can choose the holder you want for each scent either the decorative glass holder or the new holiday tin holder. These scented oil candles will fill your bedroom with the pleasant aroma of these two scents. Glade Scented Oil Candles can be found in many drug, grocery and discount department stores.

These five cheap Christmas decorating ideas for your bedroom will help spark your creativity. These Christmas décor suggestions are easy to apply and won't cost you hundreds of dollars either. Have fun decorating your bedroom for Christmas this year. Happy Holidays!

    More great ideas! Say, I'm telling some AC friends who usually comment on my pieces that my latest article (posted Friday) isn't showing up on my list and is apparently not making it out on notifications to people. It is at http://www.associatedcontent.com/article/2317050/fox_news_and_the_white_house_questions.html?cat=75
