20 Gorgeous Farmhouse Bedroom Ideas to Copy
Keep the “fresh eggs” sign in the kitchen!
The farmhouse aesthetic is a beautiful blend of bright colors and elegant textures that create a timeless look in any room, especially the bedroom. If you’re looking to achieve this aesthetic in your sleep space, here are 20 must-see farmhouse bedroom ideas to give your room the transformation you’re after.
1. Go Faux With Shiplap
Create texture and visual diversity in your farmhouse bedroom with a popular decorative design – shiplap! Skip the hassle of sawing and installing real shiplap wood plants with way-simpler-to-install shiplap wallpaper. Shiplap wallpaper mimics the painted wood look to brighten up your space and bring elegance to your bedroom the easy way.
Since the farmhouse aesthetic is all about soft colors, stay neutral with the colors of your bedding, furniture, and walls. Popular colors to start with are shades of white, beige, and gray, with the occasional softer blue and green. Neutral and soft colored bedding creates a bright atmosphere and a classic and clean look that is easy to play around with and blend together.
Combine farmhouse colors with patterns for a bolder take on bedding. Striped or floral patterns can bring necessary diversity to the bedroom if your furniture is farmhouse-neutral and all one color. Be sure to choose patterns in softer colors and a neutral palette to stay consistent with the aesthetic.
Have an all-white room? Give your space a pop of color with a metal or iron-framed bed. This piece brings in a vintage look that pairs nicely with other elements of the aesthetic, such as shiplap walls and neutral colors. The contrast in light and dark colors makes your bed the focal point while also tying the room together.
One for-sure farmhouse bedroom idea to incorporate is wood furnishings. The best place to use this element is with the main focus of the room – the bed! Wood celebrates the rural aspects of this aesthetic (think nature and wooden barn doors) for a more rustic feel.
Upholstered headboards are not only visually appealing, but they can break up the texture and color in your room in an elegant way. Choose a headboard with tufted sections to create a sophisticated look. If you would rather focus on rustic charm, solid upholstery is a great farmhouse bedroom idea.
Achieve cohesion in your furniture with a farmhouse bedroom set. If mixing and matching pieces of furniture isn’t your thing, a bedroom set takes care of the work for you. Celebrate the farmhouse aesthetic with distressed pieces that give a barnyard vibe, or go timeless with an all-white arrangement.
Like your lighting to come with a breeze? Get both with a farmhouse bedroom fan. A farmhouse fan combines color and texture with wooden blades and a colored mount, or you can choose to keep it neutral with a solid white fan. A farmhouse fan with wooden blades and a darker mount can add a pop of color and texture to your light neutral room or if you have a warmer shade of walls.
For a more refined farmhouse bedroom idea, choose lighting that doubles as decoration. One way to achieve an elevated farmhouse bedroom look is opting for a chandelier instead of a fan. Farmhouse chandeliers add grace and beauty to any bedroom with designs that can act as a focal piece for your room.
If your dresser doesn’t come with a mirror, place one of your own on the wall above it. To make your mirror fitting for a farmhouse look, choose one that has a wood frame or neutral color.
Need to see more? Get a complete head-to-toe view before you leave thanks to a full-length mirror. A distressed wooden frame, like in the picture above, fits the farmhouse look perfectly.
Tip!
Running out of space? Place your full-length mirror in the corner of your room to keep your room clutter-free.
12. Stick to Neutral Curtains for a Breezy Space
Shade the room in style with beautiful neutral curtains or drapes. To continue the farmhouse look and achieve a bright, breezy space, choose soft colors that align with the other shades you have included in the room. If you need an extra decorative pop, neutral-patterned curtains will do the trick!
Faux plants breathe life into any room, including ones with a farmhouse aesthetic! The greenery of the leaves adds a pop of color to farmhouse neutrals to brighten up the area.
Highlight the heart of this aesthetic with country-themed wall art. Wall art with rural settings, flowers, nature, or mason jars can enhance the room’s theme and add more decorative flair on free spaces of the wall for a complete look.
For a bedding farmhouse bedroom idea, stack decorative pillows for an elegant yet super comfortable presentation. Play around with different sizes, widths, colors, and patterns to create a cohesive look with the blend of patterns and styles. The best pillows for the farmhouse-aesthetic come in neutral tones and striped or plaid patterns you can mix and match with the color or pattern of your bedding.
Continuing with bedding ideas, throw blankets are staple pieces for completing your sleep look and style. A throw blanket layered on the end of your bedding provides easy accessibility when you crave a little extra warmth, and it can also be a simple style substitute if you don’t have a bedroom bench or footboard. Farmhouse throw blankets have a woven, homemade-looking texture and are beige, gray, or cream in color to stay consistent with the theme’s color palette.
Whether you have hardwood floors or carpet, a rug is another element to include in farmhouse bedroom ideas. Not only does a rug give your floors extra plush, but it brings in more design to the space to complement your bedding or wall color to tie the room together. Farmhouse rugs create a welcoming environment with their soft neutrals and whimsical patterns that can also create a focal piece in your bedroom.
Farmhouse wallpaper with its timeless patterns and colors will make a visual statement in your bedroom. Complement your space with a wallpapered accent wall to create a contrast to your room’s colors with a pattern that incorporates the rural elements.
Create a nook or place to sit and enjoy a good book with a farmhouse accent chair in your bedroom. Accent chairs can be used for lounging as well as adding extra decoration to your space. If you don’t have room for a chair, consider placing a farmhouse bedroom bench at the end of your bed for the same purpose.
Farmhouse bedroom ideas are all about the details. Arrange your accents on flat surfaces such as the tops of your nightstands and dresser for an elegant, timeless look. Choose colors for your table lamps that create a contrast but are still part of the theme's color pattern, like in the picture above. Another great way to beautifully decorate your farmhouse bedroom is to use a decorative tray to house other odds and ends like a candle or small decorative pieces.
