Most of us are attracted to certain themes when it comes to reading , watching movies or decorating our homes. There are few people who like watching and reading about vampires and wish to recreate the fantasy in real world by decorating their bedrooms in similar fashion. Following a gothic style, they try to create the required atmosphere, which is dark, powerful, passionate and *** at the same time.
If you want to turn your bedroom into the one that looks like a vampire's hideout, then these guidelines can help you with your interesting project.
When you think of a vampire, the first color that comes to your mind is black. Use black generously but carefully in the paint and decorations of the bedroom appropriately.
There are people who color the entire room black and decorate it in Gothic Style. This will mean a lot of expense to paint the entire place black. Besides remember black attract heat and the room temperature can increase by a few degrees in summer as compared to other rooms. Black walls go well with silver, gold or brass accessories and color combinations.
The next best alternative to a stunning effect can be the use of Red Color which is another favorite of the vampires. Deep blood red or crimson red is the color. You can have a room with red color and use black colored accessories with silver too. Use red satin for soft furnishing with black motifs. This can be out of the world.
You will have to buy the accessories, which match the antique style from the specific antique shops or thrift shops. You might find some nice stuff in oriental shops and boutiques too. Buy items like large mirror, candle stands and picture frame in metal etc. These can come quite cheap if you know where to look for.
Now complete the rest of the look with a four-poster bed and gothic styled cabinets and armories preferably with glass finish to add to the final touch.
It is quite natural that you want to have the best effect and will spare no efforts in doing up your bedroom. But always remember to keep minimal things and not clutter the place. Secondly be practical and keep only those items that have functional utility. Thirdly ensure all items complement each other in style.
