To improve the ambiance of any room, lights also play an important room. When it comes to choosing lights for a bedroom, make sure you decide on appropriate lighting techniques. Lighting should be such that every corner of the room is illuminated, even with a few lights. The mood always remains tranquil, so select lights that just have a soft glow, rather than going for harsh lighting. Lights and lamp shades that are opaque will not be perfect as they tend to make the room darker. A good placement of lighting is near the bedposts, so that direct light does not fall on your face, while sleeping. A bedside lamp or a reading light can also be fixed near the bed. Lights can also be installed in closets so that you don't have to grope in the dark for things. Fluorescent or white lights are cooler and supply sufficient light in the closets. These were some of the decorating and arrangement ideas for a small bedroom. You can use these decorating tips to create a whole new and unique design for your bedroom.
