How to Decorate a Lavender Room

Give your bedroom or bathroom a relaxing vibe using a lavender decorating scheme. The light purple hue will infuse the space with a tranquil atmosphere, similar to your favorite spa. Incorporate elements of nature, such as plants, into the decor theme to complement the lavender color and to give the room a fresh look. Add pops of other colors into the room design to avoid going overboard with the lavender shade.

Instructions

    • 1

      Paint the walls a soft lavender shade to give the room to create a calming feel. Cover the trim with white pain for a fresh, clean look.

      Decorate with lavender textiles. Place a plush lavender rug on hardwood floors to give the room a luxurious touch. Make the bed the center of attention with a neutral-hued quilt featuring botanical-looking lavender plant designs. Hold gauzy white curtains back with lavender ties.

      Add accent colors to break up the lavender decor. Choose white wicker furniture, such as a bed headboard, nightstand, dresser or vanity table, to give the room a French country or spa-inspired style. Place sage green decorative pillows on the bed or hang green towels in a bathroom.

      Enhance the room with natural touches. Place a lavender plant in a rustic terracotta pot and display it on a wall shelf to infuse the room with a sweet fragrance. Brighten up the space with green plants and lavender flowers such as hyacinths and lilacs.
