Summarize the following:
For most small bedrooms, the focal point will either be the bed or the window. Because you don’t want these two items warring with one another for attention, its best to choose one as the focus of the room. Whichever you select, dress the other focus point neutrally. For instance, if you choose to focus on the bed, play the headboard space up with a few bright throw pillows and a fun duvet cover. At the same time, use neutral colors like white, cream, grey, or tan for curtains on your window. You can also create a win-win situation by placing your bed under your window--the two will combine into one pretty focus point. While you may be inclined to buy a large bed (who isn’t?) you should probably stick to a smaller bed that can fit in the room without taking up all of the floor space. Fulls and doubles are generally the way to go in a small space. However, if you are decorating a kid’s small bedroom, definitely stick with a twin bed--they take up the least amount of space. If you will only be sleeping in the room and there’s not much else in there, then you can use a large bed. If you really want to maximize your space, a loft bed is a great option. You can sleep up above and still have enough room for a desk, couch, yoga area, or any other item you are hoping to fit into your room. If you are short on floor space, you might consider  a floating nightstand. Purchase a closet shelf, which can be bought at a home furnishing store, and install it upside down on your wall. This will provide you with a place to store things, put an alarm clock, or add some decorative touches to your bedside area.  You can also  install regular shelves that will work the same way as the closet shelf, but won’t have the blocked ends to keep things from falling off. Try putting the bed up against the wall on one side of the room and the nightstand on one side of the bed. Opting for a nightstand that has some storage space for clothing is another great way to maximize your space. If you do have enough space for a bedside table, try out a console table that has thin legs. Rather than having a bulky or cabinet-filled side table, this sleeker side table will take up less room while still allowing you to display keepsakes or place a lamp next to your bed. If you want to put a TV in your room, opt for a  small flat screen that can be installed on the wall, placed on a thin console, or kept housed in a bookshelf cubby. The key here is to take advantage of the thinness of the TV--place it somewhere where a larger TV couldn’t go (like on the wall). Because you have such a small space, you will need to keep it neat and clutter-free. While a pile of t-shirts might not look like much in a larger room, in your bedroom it could potentially look like a mountain. Make a point of  keeping your area tidy by  making your bed everyday, putting things away after you have used them, and hanging up clothes at night.  It is also a good idea to have a laundry basket or bag somewhere in your room--like your closet. Reducing the amount of clutter will increase your surface area in the room, and this will make it seem larger. If you find that you don’t have much surface space to put a light on, you might want to install some  wall lights or hanging light. In particularly, hanging lights, like a funky chandelier, can really spruce up a room. Because they are hanging from above or off the wall, they also take up less space than a standard desk lamp does.

Summary:
Select a focal point of your room. Pick out a smaller bed.  Consider building a loft bed. Try out a floating nightstand. Think thin. Stick to flat-screen TVs.  Keep your room neat. Consider  installing hanging lights or wall lights.
