You don’t have to live on a farm to decorate in farmhouse style; you don’t even have to live in a rural area. You just need to embrace the casual feel and nod to the tradition and underlying heart-of-the-country vibe that typifies this welcoming, warm, and easy decorating style. This bedroom demonstrates the emphasis on light and spaciousness that typifies traditional farmhouse style.

Old and New Mix
Decorating Decor and MoreModern farmhouse style celebrates the traditional even while embracing the contemporary. Using found objects, antiques, or old-timey memorabilia as decor is a popular way to decorate a farmhouse bedroom. Here, three vintage straw hats add charm above the headboard. All other items, though, are new reproductions of classic items.

Fireplace in the Bedroom
My ParadissiIf you’re lucky enough to have a fireplace in your bedroom, like the serene farmhouse bedroom from the wonderful decorating blog My Paradissi shown here, you’re already halfway to country farmhouse style.
If you don’t, but wish you did, consider installing one of the many faux fireplaces now available, which look real but require no chimney or wood, and which produce no flames or ashes. -

Shiplap Walls
House of TurquoiseShiplap walls are a hallmark of farmhouse style. Often white, but sometimes colored in soft hues, like the pale grayish-green shown here, these wood-clad walls add a warm touch that almost feels nostalgic. If you are unable to panel your walls with real wood, check out a "so real-looking you'll have to get up close to tell the difference" shiplap-design wallpaper.

Repurposing Found Objects
Thistlewood FarmsRepurposing, recycling, and “making do” are ways of life on the farm, and that outlook extends to the décor. While old shutters are a great substitute for a traditional headboard, you can take the idea even further, as decorating blog Thistlewood Farms did here. An entire wall of old shutters is an unexpected—and entirely wonderful—way to add whimsy and eye-catching style to a farmhouse bedroom.

DIY Headboard
Buckets of BurlapRustic wood and repurposed items are commonly found in the farmhouse style. For example, why settle for a traditional headboard when you could have a roughhewn and entirely wonderful DIY headboard made from old boards? And who needs a regular footboard when a vintage metal washtub makes such a unique substitute? Farmhouse blog Buckets and Burlap show off both ideas in this cozy charmer of a primary bedroom.
About This Term: Primary Bedroom
Many real estate associations as well as the Real Estate Standards Organization have classified the term "Master Bedroom" as potentially discriminatory. "Primary Bedroom" is the name now widely used among the real estate community and better reflects the purpose of the room.

Classic Quilts
Comfy DwellingQuilts and the farmhouse decorating theme go together like peanut butter and jelly.
While you might be able to find a vintage quilt online, at an antique mall, or in a specialty shop, feel free to purchase a new quilt that merely appears to be old. Layering a quilt over a bedspread, as in the room shown here, is another hallmark of the farmhouse style. -

Girl's Farmhouse Bedroom
Something is DoneThe farmhouse theme works just as well in a preteen or teen’s bedroom as it does in the primary suite. Here, a charming modern farmhouse girl’s bedroom is sweetened with touches of pink, a small chandelier, and floral-decorated straw hats as wall art. The unfinished and painted ceiling with exposed rafters is essential to the rural feeling of this room.
-

Yellow and White Color Scheme
Comfy DwellingButtery yellow is a classic farmhouse hue. Cheery as sunshine, warm and welcoming as a country hug at the end of the day, versatile enough to work with just about any other color, yellow walls set off the overall soft color scheme so prevalent in this casual decorating style.
Yellows and white together create the clean, bright look essential to farmhouse style. -

Four-Poster Beds and Rocking Chairs
Photo: Farmhouse5540Two pieces of furniture you’ll often find in the farmhouse bedroom are a four-poster bed and a traditional wooden rocking chair. Put together, as in this authentic farmhouse bedroom from blog Farmhouse 5540, and you have a room that feels as warm and easy as a visit to Grandma’s back when you were a kid.

Whites Predominate
Farmhouse5540While there is no set palette for farmhouse style, you'll generally find plenty of white, along with soft color for accents. Case in point: this peaceful, country-farm bedroom from blog Farmhouse 5540. The wooden bench at the foot of the bed, along with the use of baskets for storage are other hallmarks of farmhouse style.

Nightstand Alternatives
Photo: Savvy Southern StyleNo need for a traditional nightstand when you have an antique trunk ready and willing to step into place. Top it with an old-timey lamp, small pitcher, and vintage clock in a cute wicker tray, then back the whole tableau up with a classic country rooster sign, and you have this wonderful country farmhouse bedroom from Savvy Southern Style.

Wooden Chair Makeover
skonahemFound an old wooden chair at a tag sale that has seen better days, or is scraped and chipped? No problem! Just treat it to a fresh coat of paint, then wear at the edges a bit to create a timeworn appearance. Voila, you have a perfect spot to sit and pull on your shoes in the morning or a substitute for a traditional bedside table. Fresh cut flowers are always a nice touch in farmhouse-style decor.

Sliding Barn Doors
Carolyne Ferguson DesignIt's not a farm without a barn, and it's not a barn without a sliding barn door.
The look has caught on in the interior decorating world over the past few years, and why not? With no need for room to swing, a sliding door takes up less foot space in the room, making it a great solution for tiny bedrooms. The worn turquoise barn door here is in a bedroom from Carolyn Ferguson Design. 12 Stylish DIY Barn Doors

Soft Colors Also Work Well
Margot AustinWhile soft creamy white is classic for farmhouse style, there is no reason you can't add soft color if you like. Here, designer and stylist Margot Austin shows off the power of soft color. Pale lavender and soft blue are pretty and fresh without detracting from the casual, peaceful vibe that makes farmhouse style so wonderful.

Farmhouse-Style Can Be Contemporary
Muskoka LivingFarmhouse style doesn't have to mean unsophisticated or even old-fashioned, although it always celebrates the spirit of the traditional. When done right, as in the gorgeous bedroom from design firm Muskoka Living shown here, farmhouse style can actually be rather sophisticated and contemporary.

Seating Nook
Muskoka LivingEvery bedroom deserves a comfortable spot to sit and think or pull on your shoes before heading out in the morning, and your farmhouse bedroom is no exception. A comfortable small armchair, a nearby ottoman to prop your feet, and a light close enough to use for reading is all you need. The cute bedroom here is from Muskoka Living.
-

Usefulness Is the Essence
Muskoka LivingPart of what gives farmhouse style its casual, airy, and peaceful vibe is the lack of clutter or fuss.
Instead, the decor is mostly useful, with just enough accents and purely decorative pieces to give the room personality and style. For a perfect example, check out this room from Muskoka Living. -

Splashes of Bright Color
Daily HeraldSometimes, you just want to add a splash of lively color to your bedroom, even though it's decorated in a style that generally leans towards softer hues. If so, feel free to indulge yourself: After all, the only real law in interior decorating is that you should love your space. Here, a farmhouse-style bedroom lights up with the addition of a colorful quilt and shams.
The rest of the room, however, is subdued, in keeping with the classic farmhouse style. -

Simple Patterns Are Classic
Home Tree AtlasFarmhouse style isn't one for a lot of patterns or a wide palette full of color. The lovely bedroom here shows off a typical look: Classic stripes and a simple trellis are the only patterns, while the small touches of red are the only break in the otherwise neutral color scheme. The overall effect is restful, airy, and fresh.

25 country style bedrooms with style ideas to steal
In the past, a country bedroom may have spelled out floral curtains, patchwork quilts, gingham upholstery and a colour scheme dominated by a whole lot of yellow and blue. Thankfully, in the past few years, this clichéd approach to country style has been dialled down in favour of a more textural, subtle alternative.
Styling a modern country bedroom is all about layering natural fabrics, such as linen, cotton and wool to create a relaxing, cocooning space. Sure, you can add floral motifs, but use them sparingly. Fresh foliage and cut flowers are always a welcome addition, as are throw rugs, pendant lights and softly draped curtains.
Here are 23 modern country bedrooms that will inspire you to create a bedroom you'll love to wake up to.

At Sinclairs of Berry, each bedroom features a formal yet relaxed style. Owner Caroline Sinclair upholstered many of the beds in the home herself.

A cool colour palette flows throughout this modern farmhouse in Victoria's Macedon Ranges. In the bedroom, colour is introduced by way of the bedhead, which was custom-designed by Amy Spargo of Maine House Interiors. "I thought this fabric had beautiful country colours and I wanted to base the interior around that - I'm not a pink girl, and have four boys to think of!" says homeowner Clare.

A deep colour scheme may not be for everyone, but Kerry and Peter Johnson knew speckled concrete flooring and dark hues were right for their dream home just outside of Boorowa, NSW.
Living on a 900-hectare farm means they needed a home that could handle the dust and mud that comes with country life. The pair designed and built the bed frame and Kerry even created the lamp herself. For similar bedding, try the Tumeric 100% flax linen duvet cover from Bed Threads.

"We are quite simple people who don't have anything all that luxurious, but we really enjoy having things around us with a story and meaning," says Harriet Birrell, who lives in a secluded 40-square-metre corrugated iron and weatherboard tiny house on Victoria's South Coast. Her bedroom has just enough space for a bed, but the open-plan design and large window prevent the space from feeling cramped. Hemp bed linen from Good Studios.

This bedroom in a converted steam train carriage is compact yet glamorous.
Who says you need a large room to accommodate a chandelier? But this bedroom also serves as a reminder of this carriage's past life. During renovations, the owners pulled up a panel in the floor and discovered a linkage mechanism (the part that joins the carriages together). "We oiled it, covered it with safety glass. It's now a feature - you can walk over it in the master bedroom," says owner Fleur.

100+ country style bedroom ideas: interior and design photos
A distinctive feature of the country style bedroom design is a harmonious combination of rustic cozy interior in urban apartments.
Tired of the fast pace of life and the bustle of the city? Do you want to fully enjoy the cozy home atmosphere? Then decorate your own bedroom in a unique country style by looking at a collection of the best ideas in the photo!
Country style bedroom interior - photo
Country style first appeared in England and then spread to European countries and Russia. The main principle of this design direction is to avoid modern materials, which are not associated with such concepts as "naturalness", "naturalness" and "rural atmosphere". Despite the fact that the country style combines several directions (English, Provence, Russian, etc.), they have common features. The interior of a country-style bedroom should be simple, cozy and light if the following features prevail in it:
- Clear geometry and simple shapes.
- Muted and calm shades.
- Home comfort in every element.
- Unfinished wall surfaces in some places.
- Natural materials.
- Solid wood furniture.
- The minimum number of equipment or its complete absence.
- Floral prints.
- Small accessories.
Country style bedroom furniture
Although many apartment and country house owners today try to use natural materials for interior design, this is not always possible. Solid wood furniture is quite expensive, so MDF headsets are popular. Advanced technologies have made it possible to process chipboards with high quality.
As a result, LSDP furniture practically does not differ from wooden furniture in appearance. With the right combination of all interior items, even inexpensive materials will look aesthetically attractive. nine0003
Avoid glass and chrome surfaces where possible. Combine different interior styles, because the main goal is to fill the room with comfort, and not strictly follow the rules.
Country style in different regions has its own features, as it is formed under the influence of local traditions and climatic conditions.
How to furnish the interior of a bedroom in country style
When decorating the interior, you will have to pay special attention to the decoration of walls, ceiling and floor. If you decide to use wall paint, then it must be matte. It is acceptable to use several shades to highlight one or two zones in the room, but most often the finish is made in one color. nine0003
The effect of whitewashed walls can be achieved with decorative plaster. Adjust the graininess of the mixture, then it will turn out to make the walls rougher in some places.
The easiest way to decorate walls is to stick paper wallpapers. Choose not only plain wallpaper, but also in flowers, polka dots or stripes to emphasize the simplicity and unobtrusiveness of the interior.
If desired, brickwork can be imitated on one of the walls, and wooden beams can be fixed on the ceiling.
It all depends on your design idea, because you can make an interior with rustic motifs not only thanks to the decoration of walls or furniture, but also textiles. Even the most austere atmosphere can be diluted with the help of properly selected curtains, bedspreads and decorative pillows made using the patchwork technique.
An important role in the arrangement of the interior is played by lighting, which must fully correspond to the purpose of the room. The bedroom may have subdued lighting, so use lamps with fabric shades. Sconces and floor lamps will look beautiful in such an interior.
Accessorize with cute vintage pieces that will accentuate the design and create a cozy atmosphere in your bedroom.
