When selecting it is important to pay attention not only to the color gamut, the relationship with the overall design and the plot, but also on the compatibility of this picture with the people in whose bedroom it will hang:

  • couples can choose swan paintings, spouses or newlyweds, made in silhouette technique or with fuzzy faces, so as not to cause the feeling of being in the bedroom of someone else;
  • It is not recommended to weigh portraits of deceased relatives, because they carry far from positive energy;

Feng Shui Rules

Location

In the practice of feng shui is not recommended to hang a picture above the bed. It is believed that it will unnecessarily concentrate on itself the energy flows, thereby disturbing their balance. It is better to place it on the wall opposite the bed, where it will always be in front of your eyes, sending a positive. Above the bedside table, to the left and right of it, you can hang two pieces of the same size and echoing the plot. If the bedroom has a niche, then the picture, placed in it, will look good. With a large niche depth will require additional lighting.

The ideal surface for placing pictures will be a single-colored or striped wall. Against the background of too patterned wallpaper, the picture of medium size will look alien, but the small one will simply get lost.

Colors

Recommended pastel calm colors, as well as natural natural: blue, yellow, green, brown. They are easily perceived and do not cause strong emotions. Favorable and white color. It is neutral and symbolizes cleansing and peace. Bright and saturated colors excite and do not allow to relax, attracting attention. Although, in some cases, for example, in the bedroom of the newlyweds, they are quite appropriate.

Forms and sizes

For the bedroom fit pictures of large and medium sizes. You should not hang up small works, because they make you strain your eyes and look at them, and if there are a lot of them, they create the illusion of small visual garbage. The most optimal will look one big picture, which, depending on its shape, will visually increase the space of the bedroom. Long images make the room noticeably more spacious, and high ones, especially if they hang on white walls, noticeably raise the ceilings.

It looks good two pictures of medium size, made in the same style. They can be hung over the bed or above a low bedside table, dressing table or chest of drawers. If there are several canvases, but not more than four, and they are different in size, then it is recommended to align them with the bottom edge and hang at eye level. Because hanging low, or vice versa, too high paintings distort the geometry of the bedroom space.

You can also place works of various sizes on the shelf, but not many. Three - four pictures is enough. Important and shape of the picture. If there are semicircular windows in the bedroom, an arched niche, an oval mirror, then you can safely hang a picture with rounded shapes or with a painted circle. In another case, such an image will not look harmonious, like a foreign object.
