Do you see your bedroom as simply a place where you sleep, or do you regard your bedroom as your own space. Just for you, special. For some that's exactly how they see their bedroom, as their own space to make just the way they like it. Their bedroom is a place to reflect exactly who they are. To take delight in how it's furnished and what type of bed they sleep in. Your bedroom is your own personal intimate space.

If you just see a bedroom as somewhere that you sleep and not much more then this article isn't for you. If you really just view your bedroom as somewhere where you get undressed to go to bed, spend the night then get dressed again then you'll be a little bored by bedroom decoration.

But if you love being in your bedroom you'll probably love decorating it, taking your time choosing your bed and your bedding, lying in in the mornings to take delight in your surroundings and generally feeling good in your own special room. This article is written for you.

Refurbishing is all the rage now, and for many refurbishing their bedroom is high on their list. So if you're designing your bedroom new, or refurbishing, here's a few things you might like to think about before you start buying at the store.

1. Have a plan. It's easy to see a great bed, love it, buy it and then wonder what else you'll put with it to make it fit in with the room. Before you buy anything for your bedroom you need to decide on a few basic things and preferably write down a decoration plan.

You have to think of your bedroom theme. Perhaps if you're designing a bedroom for a child and it's a Winnie the Pooh theme, or may as an adult it might be a color theme, or a period. But the theme has to fit in with your own personality and likes. Once you have a theme you can then set about deciding on the bed and the individual fittings, paint, design and so on to go with the theme. Once you have paint and carpet or floor covering worked out it's so much easier. Write it all down on your plan.

2. Budget. You have to remember that a bedroom decoration isn't cheap, and you need to know how much you can afford and how much it all will cost before you get started. No point in buying that hot four poster bed you've always wanted and being unable to afford anything to go with it. On top of the bed, for example, you need sheets or a duvet, pillows and covers and so on, all in keeping with your theme. You have to be able to afford all of it. Price everything first and write it on your plan.

3. You must measure your bedroom and draw it on your plan to scale along with everything you plan to have in it to scale. No point in buying that hot four poster bed then finding that it's too big and you can't get around the foot of the bed. You need to plan your space before buying.

4. Everything has to get into the room. That four poster might have to be carried up the narrow stairs, around the corner and across a landing through a narrow door. Not easy. Measure everything before you buy or you may be left with something left stuck on the landing because it won't fit through the door.

Find out how it breaks down for example, or if it even does, and make sure you know exactly how it will go in before you buy that wonderful four poster.

For those who love their personal bedroom space having a well designed, well thought out, well decorated and well furnished bedroom is a delight. Make sure you do your basic homework before you start buying or you may find that your special bedroom is not such a delight. Get it right and you'll love it.
