Boho decor is a fun way to add relaxed character and cosiness to a bedroom design. The boho style is adaptable to many different kinds of base decor too, so you can always add a twist to a pre-existing Scandi-style space or a cool urban scheme. Despite its plethora of accessory options, the bohemian interior style is even suitable for minimalists. It only takes a few small additions to add a hint of bohemian flavour. Think natural materials, such as wicker baskets, rattan pendant lights, jute rugs, and wooden furniture. Add softness through an assortment of accent cushions and throws. Here are 51 boho bedrooms with ideas, tips and accessories to help you design yours.
Spread boho style accessories evenly. If you don’t wish to go too deep with layering then space key pieces at regular intervals around the room. Handmade art over the headboard, a wicker pendant light, a boho bedroom chair, and a rustic planter are enough to instil a subtle essence without going overboard.

Create one focal piece. An archway acts as the perfect jumping-off point for boho wall decor. Paint the architectural feature in a warm beige colourway to contrast with a pale grey or white decor scheme, and hang a handwoven element at its centre. The modern tufted bed surprisingly looks right at home in this room.
Buy into the botanical theme. Indoor plants make perfect companions for the earthy boho look. Alternatively, you can opt for leafy art prints and wallcoverings.
As light as a feather. Boho decor schemes work well under all sorts of colour schemes, from dark and dramatic to colourful and joyous. However, there is something so very calming about a white, pale grey, or greige boho bedroom. This one employs feather decals to give the scheme an ever lighter, airier look.
The joy of jute. When it comes to boho rugs, it’s all about texture. A round jute rug makes a fitting natural base for the aesthetic whilst also complementing a curvaceous arched motif.
Thnk outside the wicker basket. Just because wicker pendants are leaders in boho bedroom decor, that doesn’t mean you can’t opt for a more chic bedroom chandelier. This tasselled light fixture works elegantly with understated wooden furniture and pretty botanical prints.
Uber chic with boho sprinkles. This elegant bedroom design merely hints at the bohemian trend. Indoor plants soften the focal wall between contemporary pendant lights, whilst wooden tables add character around a modern floor lamp.
Nearly neoclassical. This boho bedroom scheme is layered against panel moulding to give it a classical elegance. A dark green paint finish beautifully ties the two aesthetics together.
Slats and stripes. The wood-slatted interior trend melds easily with the boho natural material palette. Add a striped bedroom rug to exaggerate the linear effect.
Raw and rustic. You may think that raw concrete decor is synonymous with the industrial decor trend but it’s a friend of boho too, Team with rustic light-fittings and furniture to warm the visual.
Of course, you’re not limited to only raw wooden furniture with this trend. An upholstered bed has a softening effect on the scheme – and won’t hurt so much if you walk into it at night!
A stage for awesome finds. This split-level bedroom design forms a plinth on which to display a bright bed set and boldly underline a set of incredible bedroom pendant lights.
Black boho bedrooms. Out of the comfort zone for some, the black bedroom aesthetic is dramatically dreamy. You don’t have to go all-out though. Just pick one or two accent walls to turn up the intensity.
Renter-friendly boho decor. If you’re renting your home, you might be limited from putting up wall decor and changing light fittings. Instead, source lightweight pieces that can be mounted with Command strips, or bring in a boho screen for a freestanding solution.
Fairy lights can make almost any space into a cozy bedroom. Wrap them around the headboard, a mirror frame, or string across the ceiling for instant magic.
Blue boho. Break out of the land of neutrals with a royal blue focal wall. This deep hue makes a rich companion for natural wood, cane, and wicker furniture.
A masterful master bedroom. Create a commanding presence with colossal light fittings. These pendants are paired with corresponding coloured bedside tables, creating a white pairing on one side of the room, and brown-black counterparts on the other.
A journey of discovery. The boho aesthetic encourages loose layering and meandering layouts. This bedroom design incorporates a lounge area and open plan ensuite, broken apart by low-hanging lights and decorative screening. The effect is bemusing, intriguing, and sublime.
Restrained and restful. A pared back colour palette and limited accessories fashion a restful decor scheme. Add just a dash of visual interest with a patterned rug or floral display.

A bedroom you’ll never want to leave. Take cosy throws and oodles of cushions, add a library wall, and you may create a bedroom that you’ll never want to leave.
Boho bedroom sets. Not all furniture has to be mismatched or upcycled to fit this laid-back theme. Wood and cane bedroom sets fit the profile too. You can always add a little relaxed asymmetry with a strip of wall panelling, wood-slatting, or a large macrame wall hanging.
If you are not a naturally tidy person, then a boho bedroom could be your friend. No one is going to notice that you didn’t tuck in your bed clothes under layers of throws. And, belongings don’t need to be organised onto shelves when there are a bunch of baskets to throw them into.
