Chic Bedrooms using On-trend Jewelled Tones

We may be struggling to see summer, however you don't have to wait until September to create an Indian Summer in your bedroom. This year's trend of using jewelled tones enables you to bring together intense ruby reds, amethyst purples and pretty pink sapphires (sapphires don't have to be blue!) set against white and pink walls.

Plain or patterned superking duvetcovers, and bedding with a soft satin sheen and texture will add a luxury look to these opulent colour combinations. It may be wise to keep the ceiling white to help radiate the colours around the room and prevent it from becoming to dark and gloomy looking. Cheap curtains in hot pink tourmaline or fuchsia can be combined with blackout roller blinds so that you can have lightweight or sheer curtains and not be troubled by unwanted light while you sleep.

Include pattern to add richness and depth to the room. Matching bedside table lamps, with glass bases or a trim with droplet faux gems will help bring the room together and create a place of tranquillity and calm. If you've got carpets which aren't the right colour large area rugs are a good substitute and much cheaper than replacing an entire fitted bedroom carpet.
