Flooring

Change the flooring to add a touch of royalty to your bedroom.

You have a lot of options. You can go for marble tiles, terrazzo, or mosaic flooring to add a classic and luxurious look to your room.

Choosing hardwood flooring will give a timeless look to your room making it look heated.

Vinyl flooring, vinyl tiles, ceramic tiles, and laminate flooring can be a great alternative without a hefty price tag.

Rugs And Mats

Floor covers or rugs portray culture and prestige.

Oriental rugs with fine natural materials are a royal identity. They symbolize designs that shine culture and heritage.

Natural material rugs of wool and silk are durable and soft but high on budget.

To keep it affordable, buy synthetic rugs with different designs to enhance the royalty of the room. Complement it with a runner rug or door mats to create more harmony.

Upholstery

Upholstery is the process of adding padding, springs, webbing, and fabric or leather covers to furniture, especially chairs.

Consider placing a ragged antique framed armchair in your bedroom and upholster it with vintage patterned or royal-colored fabric. You can place it by the window to make it a good reading spot.

By keeping this ancient practice alive, you can bring royal and antique vibes to your bedroom.

Wall Color

Paint your walls in colors that have a deep historical connection to royalty. Colors like purple, blue, and red are deeply rooted in ancient charms while emerald green symbolizes gemstones.

The selection of a calm color like gold can dominate any design with richer tones side by side.

Gold often helps in enhancing other hues. When properly combined with other colors, it gives a timeless regal feeling.

Curtain

A drape that slightly puddles to the floor and goes high and wide draws attention and makes the room spacious. Add a curtain pelmet along with it to add royalty.

For the pelmet consider patterns like jacquard, abstract, or foulard. They give a majestic appearance without costing much.

For the curtain choose fabrics like satin silk or deluxe velvet to mimic traditional and historical styles.

Furniture Arrangement

A simple and zero-cost way to make your room look regal is to rearrange your furniture.

Positioning your bedroom set in a symmetrical way can create an illusion of space and volume. Make sure the bed is in the opposite direction of your focal point with side tables on each side.

And a vintage sofa close to the wall that needs to be emphasized to make it a main point of attraction.

Canopy Bedding

Consider placing a canopy bed in your room to add a sense of luxury and sensation to your room.

These beds were famously associated with emperors and royals in the past and their large size provides a sense of grandeur.

Canopy beds are also a great way to keep you warm and protect you from insects.

Ornate Mirror

An ornate mirror will add an aristocratic look to your room.

Choose a mirror of a reasonable size that works well for you. Consider placing it opposite the window so it can reflect the most light and make the room look lighter and brighter.

To make a statement make sure the mirror is round and covered with decorations that are warm in color like gold.

Chandelier

A beautiful and grand chandelier in the center can add a luxurious visual interest.

Consider a chandelier with gold-painted ornate metal arms with dangling glass pieces that try to mimic jewels or crystals.

Although the bigger the chandelier the more royal it looks but pick one that complements your room’s size.

Bedding

One seemingly trivial thing that you don’t have to overlook is bedding. This can change the whole look of your room.

Choose silk bedding and alternate it with bamboo cotton, satin, and sateen.

Add royal blue, purple, white, or gold duvet covers along with accent pillows, throws, and pillow shams to bring aesthetic monarchial pleasure.

Sculptural Elements

To give historical vibes to your room place sculptural elements on your dresser or side table.

Consider placing miniature busts of Greek or Roman gods, philosophers, kings, or other figurative sculptures like dancing ballerinas, animals, or mythical creatures.

You can buy these pieces easily at an affordable price from a thrift store and try finding pieces that are made of marble, faux marble, or stone to make them look royal.

Decorative Trays and Boxes

Place mirrored or golden decorative trays or boxes on your dressing table to arrange your perfumes, jewelry, and makeup.

This will not only give a clean and organized look to your bedroom but will also give a luxurious finish to your room.

You can choose from a variety of options like vintage style, marble, glass, or velvet-lined. DIY the box and paste some pearls or gems to the box to add a dazzling, royal touch.

Scented Candles

Scented candles are a great way to add a delightful and refreshing aroma to your bedroom.

Consider buying the royal oud fragrance which is usually composed of exotic, smoky wood smells including rare oud, sandalwood, rosewood, eastern spices & sensual amber.

This groundbreaking composition will evoke the warmth of ancient incense-filled temples.

Place the candle in a royal-style candle holder to complete the look.

Floral Arrangements

Consider placing crystal or gold-plated tall vases in a room filled with burgundy, violet, or gold-toned flowers. This will make your room look elegant and fresh.

Create a symmetrical look by placing similar flower vases on both side tables.

To go more dramatic, hang faux flower garlands above your bed or around mirrors and windows.

Antique Art Work

Hang 1-2 antique artworks in your room to truly feel royal.

You can choose from a wide range of styles according to your preferences like baroque art, impressionist paintings, and medieval tapestries.

Make sure they are of a reasonable size and choose frames that are decorative and are painted in shades of gold.
