Remove any of the existing furnishings in the space. An empty room provides a clean slate to behind your cherry-wood inspired bedroom makeover.
Paint the walls a soft shade of cream. A medium cherry wood is a classic style that works best with simple color choices. Paint just one wall a shade of yellow or peach if you're craving color, but keep the color in a soft tone.
Place your medium cherry wood furnishings in the space. Layer white linens on the bed in an assortment of textures. Lace, satin and velvet incorporated throughout bedding, as well as traditional and reliable fabrics such as linen and cotton, provide a textured and sophisticated yet classic look.
Select an assortment of sepia-toned photographs. These can be family photographs or stock photography from a print house. The content is your choice, but look for elegant images and scenery. Add these to brass or gold-plate looking frames and mount on the walls.
