In the spirit of the festival, play with festive and cheerful colour palettes like greens, deep blues, deep reds and burnt orange that bring vibrancy to the décor. Let your home reflect the warmth of festivity and pick from various room colour combination that is available. If you wish to try something different, you can add sparkle to your house before the festive season by opting for rich wall textures.

Complement the wall colours with neutral-themed furnishings. You can also jazz up your walls with stencils and give it a new lease of life. You can flaunt them above the headboard of your bed, as a backdrop to your bathroom mirror, a strip next to the entrance door or even outdoors on your balcony wall to make a stunning statement. As it is the festival of lights, it is important to keep in mind the lighting of the house. Lighting can easily transform the appearance of the home and reflect the warmth of festivity.

Ideas to Make Your Bedroom Cosy during Diwali

Paint Perfect
When you think of a bedroom, it should be a space that embraces you when you enter it and from which you can leave feeling relaxed. This is where the choice of paints you make come in. Your bedroom wall painting should be done in such a way that the shades used make you feel at ease. Try going for darker hues of blue, grey, mustard yellow or rust orange for a room that’s relaxing and cosy.

Tantalise with Textures

Textures add a subtle sophistication to your bedroom and Berger Paints has an exciting array of wall texture designs for bedrooms, which can lend a completely different look and transform your room. If you have opted for a subtle wall texture, add a painting above your headboard to bring out the contrast.

Lovely Lighting

The light in a space has a significant role to play in how an area looks and feels. To make your bedroom cosier than it is, simply add on some fairy lights by winding them on your bedposts. You can also have accent lamps that add a soft glow to the room, instead of the usual ceiling lights.

Sheets and Rugs

Trying out different fabrics for your bed allow for a new experience, each time. So, if you have stuck to cotton, then this Diwali, give satin sheets a spin. They are luxurious and will give your bed a rich feel. Top it off with a fluffy rug on the floor and your bedroom will instantly look like a fancy hotel.

Pillows and Cushions

There is no such thing as too many pillows and cushions. You can have them in various sizes, shades and shapes. Stack them up at the top of your bed in cool patterns for a classic look. Go for a combination of textures as well as colours for the covers. They are great to prop yourself up while reading, and who thought one could look this fabulous while taking a nap.

Welcoming the Green

Adding a potted plant to your bedroom will instantly uplift your mood and have a calming effect on the surrounding space. You have many choices here such as flowering plants, creepers, leafy planters and so on. Use one or a combination of them for a bedroom that is earthy and touched by the natural beauty of nature.

Diwali is that time of the year when people anticipate the coming of prosperity and good fortune into their lives and homes. In this anticipation, there is a lot of preparation that goes into arranging spaces in such a way that they welcome the positive vibes, while also amplifying them. People set about doing this well in advance by de-cluttering their houses, giving the nooks and crannies a thorough cleaning and even taking the opportunity to upgrade their old furniture. An important aspect of giving your house a fresh feel and new look is to get it painted and we’re here to tell you why this is a great idea.

Walls are an often overlooked facet of a space which can lead to a room feeling ‘tired’. But you can transform the entire décor of your home interiors by having the walls painted in a new colour, grain or texture.

An Opportunity to Start Afresh

Diwali is an auspicious time to go with the motto ‘out with the old, in with the new’ and we couldn’t agree more. It is a time of festivities and good vibes. The walls of your home are the canvas around which you bring your décor ideas to life. So, in the spirit of attracting a bigger and better life, having a new canvas by painting your walls in new shades is a great place to start.

Utilize the Impact of Colours

There is a whole science behind the role that colours play in affecting our emotions. In any house, the majority of colour in any room is conveyed by its walls. And this obviously has a significant effect on your mood while in that space. For Diwali, choose colours that are warm, inviting and festive to create a cosy ambience in your home. Make use of focal colours and accent colours to elevate your spaces and be the envy of your guests.

Play of Light

Diwali is the festival of light, and colours in themselves are a play of light. The ambience of a room can be cleverly modified by the colours used on its walls. This has a lot to do with how shadows are created in that space. So take windows, doors and other light sources into consideration when painting to create stunning plays of light. Mood lighting is another great option to create a beautiful home that is Diwali-ready. If you plan on decorating your interiors with lamps, then you can step up your game with a textured wall so it can catch light in an interesting way.
