How to Make a Bedroom Feel Spa-Like

Paint the walls a neutral and calming color, such as light brown, sky blue or grassy green to create a calming spa atmosphere. Paint trim, doors and molding a crisp white to complement the neutral walls. Avoid bright and stimulating colors such as red, orange or yellow.

Choose furniture in a shade of white or natural wood, with simple, clean lines. Avoid brightly colored or overly detailed pieces. Purchase a quality mattress for the bed to ensure a good night's sleep. Designate one corner of the room, preferably near a window, to be a meditation or reading area. Put a large cushioned chair in the spot, along with a small table and a tabletop fountain, and a wall-attached reading light.

Select bed linens in a solid color, either a classic white or a color that goes with the walls. Choose high-thread-count sheets, along with a bedspread and a variety of small, comfortable pillows, to create a soft haven for sleep. Hang long, sheer curtains on the windows, and place a small rug next to the bed to finish the look.

Opt for a minimalist approach in regard to storage and organization. Install a tall shelf along one wall for storage, and fill it with neutral-colored fabric bins to store books and other items. Avoid overfilling the shelves, and spend time each day straightening the items on the shelf to keep the look organized.

Install a ceiling fan with a light in the spa bedroom to create a mild breeze when you want one. Have the overhead light installed with a dimmer switch so the lighting can be adjusted as needed. Place scented candles around the room for low lighting and a soothing aroma.

Finish the spa bedroom transformation by hanging framed pictures of relaxing landscapes, photos of loved ones and small mirrors. Select frames in white or brown, depending on the color of the furniture. Avoid elaborate and busy wall art. Refrain from overfilling the walls with items, which will create a cluttered look in the room.
