What makes a Mexican bedroom?\u00c2\u00a0<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"Mexican<\/p>\n

Mexican interiors tend to be far more colorful than American ones. Indeed, the typical Mexican boudoir involves an explosion of color, a far cry from the neutral shades and clean lines that you see in most American bedrooms. Mexican style has an eclectic feel<\/a>, combining rustic wood and wrought iron furnishings with bold, bright, vivid colors. Whereas in America, people opt for wall-to-wall carpeting, in Mexico that would rarely happen. Bedroom floors would be tiled or wooden and topped with a hand-woven rug. The beauty of a Mexican-styled bedroom is that it combines upbeat, vibrant atmosphere of colors with the charm and romance of the old world.<\/p>\n

Paint the walls<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Your starting point has to be color \u00e2\u20ac\u201c and this is no time to hold back! You need bright colors and plenty of contrast. You can paint your walls in a warm earth tone like brick or clay, which can create an authentic backdrop. Try using a rough paint technique to create the look of stucco or adobe to create and authentic, rustic feel. Hand-woven wall hangings and framed photos are typical in a Mexican bedroom. You might want to find some of these, as well, to decorate.<\/p>\n

Furniture and soft furnishings<\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t forget color when thinking about furniture<\/a>. Painting certain pieces to create stronger accents of color can work brilliantly.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Mexican furniture is generally wooden, straight-lined with lots of attractive ornamentation. It can range from the formality and elegance of\u00c2\u00a0Spanish colonial furniture through Tuscan style furniture with an old world, Mediterranean feel, to the Old West, rustic feel of Santa Fe or a Texas Ranch.<\/p>\n

If you choose bedding with solid colors, try dressing your bed up with bold, colorful pillows in order to\u00c2\u00a0create a truly tempting and inviting haven<\/a>\u00c2\u00a0to retreat to at night. Once again, color is key here. Opt for curtain fabric with a Mexican floral motif or a primitive print. Make sure any curtain rods and mirror frames are made of wood or wrought iron to ensure an authentic Mexican feel.<\/p>\n

When in doubt \u00e2\u20ac\u201c think color!<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Use rich colors like deep blues, golden yellows, vivid reds and lush greens as accents through your room. Seek out some traditional Mexican folk art, pottery or tapestries. You could also use colorful woven baskets as a great way to add splashes of color and interest.\u00c2\u00a0\u00c2\u00a0Decorative ceramic tiles around a mirror are another typically Mexican form of embellishment.<\/p>\n

Mexican interior design is warm and vibrant. Anyone who has the desire for it can recreate it anywhere. Whether you opt for a more\u00c2\u00a0humble, modest look or something more magnificent and sophisticated, achieving the Mexican style bedroom of your dreams is entirely doable and hopefully, you feel inspired to create your own little slice of Mexican heaven. And if you’re in need of a little insporation, take a look at these amazing Mexican haciendas<\/a>.<\/p>\n
