Do you have a style preference? Modern, cottage, traditional? Do you like some frills or more tailored look? Whimsical and minimalist makes me think of lots of different things - and is this room just for you?

Start with a chandelier:)

We can not really put a chandelier, the place is reserved for a ceiling fan unfortunately

I prefer a cleaner look, a little more subtle. I am thinking of cottage plus modern. Cozy yet not too overloaded with decorations and wall hangings. I am thinking of hanging the trimmings all along the bedroom , or maybe just one one side of the room? It's so bare - I don't really know where to begin I think that's my problem right now

I love the second photo as a design and as per the bed spreads I love the colour sheme you have suggested. Right now I have a dark bedspread that does not really go with anything. I'll play around with that idea and take your suggestion of adding some white bedding with lavender throw

The trimmings I meant curtain, like frame one side of the room right where POP is (colour am not too Certian, net maybe) and then decorate that side of the wall with hangings and paintings. Can a large painting look good in a bedrooom or will that make it whole lot crowded?

Three walls are pale sea greenish in colour with one a lavender touch akin. with some on the ceiling. So for a softer look should I go with lemony / pale yellow colours in the room or being out the lavender ?

Thank you,

You can work with your currant wall color or go more yellow - that is up to you. If you do decide to go more yellow. get some small inexpensive sample bottles at the paint store, paint some poster board and hang it on a wall for couple of days because getting the right buttery yellow can be hard. A soft yellow and lavender is pretty together but I also like the sea green. When you said a combo of modern and cottage - that made me think of beach cottages, which often have soft colors (including sea green) and unfussy, calm interiors.

You can put a large painting up if you have the wall space for it. Many bedrooms have tall chest, dresser mirror, tall headboard and big TV, all which take up wall space. If you can hang the painting without it being crowded by any of the things I mentioned, it should look very nice.

If you wish to do a curtain fabric treatment to a wall and you have the vision of what you want - then go for it. I had a friend who did that in collage - only problem was the yards and yards of fabric needed got rather expensive. So, I would start with finding bedding you love. Simple white is good, and not too expensive. However, you might find something else light that you love, or a quilt or throw for the bottom of the bed and the colors and shades might lead you in a different direction for wall color or accents. So bedding first, then curtains, then see how your wall color is and then add accents and art - although your painting can also be an inspiration for colors.
