I find that either 2 large frames or 3 small frames work best.
It is simple, classic, and refined.
2. Large Piece of Art
Whether the art stands alone or in a gallery wall, I love the bold look a large piece of art creates.

I think abstract art adds a little color and playfulness to a room.
3. Accent Wall With Nothing
Sometimes less is more. When there is an accent treatment on the bed wall, I like to leave above the bed bare. I think it is simple and elegant.
4. Mirror
A mirror seems to be my go-to.
It adds a little sparkle and makes the room look larger.
Round seems to be my shape of choice, I love how it naturally creates a focal point.
I also like a to use a variety of sizes.
I think this over-scaled mirror is playful and bold.
What is your go-to item for above a bed?
xo,
Love your picks! I’ve pinned lots of those images – some of my favorites!
Ha, I went a little crazy on my Pinterest boards to find these examples!
Great post! Can you do one for a large wall over the couch.. I am having the hardest time with this! 🙁
Great idea! I will for sure do one!
Im itching to try a over-sized mirror now- I love that last image!
Right?! Love it too.
I love a round mirror as well – it is a nice alternative and focal point to a square bed – 😉
Great ideas- working on a master now and staring above the bed with no inspiration! Especially since my clients don’t want a mirror in the bedroom! oy!
Love this! Do you know where the second photo is from? The link seems to go to the first image. I am in love with that pink paisley print pillow & have been looking for something similar for my girl’s room makeover 🙂
I have seen the bedroom with the dotted art on a mother blog and I love it so much.
I also think that I will never get tired of a starburst over the bed.
I’m moving into a new place in August and I would love to get an awesome big piece of modern art to put above it. I’ll be on the lookout! I also like the idea of having a big monogram above the bed.

I’m trying to figure that all out for a few different spaces in our new house. I usually go for grouped frames or a mirror though 🙂
Danielle,
On my last project I have chosen the option and accent wall with wallpaper, from trestintas. It is very clean but it give a huge comfort look.
Take a look and let me know what you think.

WOW! You’ve decorated your house in an amazing way – everything looks so beautiful. I like the 2 large frames or 3 small frames work some colorful bed.
Have a wonderful 2014!

I was told that here in California you should not hang anything over your bed because of earthquakes. Something to consider before your move!
