4. Accent wall behind the bed
A pristine backdrop made of stone or acrylic can pair perfectly with your headboard. Consider going for a contrasting colour, as pictured in this bedroom by The Design House Company, to turn your backdrop into the crowning glory of your room. The reflective quality of a backdrop such as this can go a long way in making your room feel bigger, brighter and more airy.

If you favour a more neutral palette, a natural patterned stone backdrop like this one by The Little Design Story can be a worthy addition to your room, lending oodles of character to your muted decor scheme.
