5 Ways To Spruce Up Your Built-in Bedroom Cupboards
Built-in bedroom cupboards offer a very practical solution for storage in our homes. However, many designs are quite cookie-cutter and uninteresting. If you’re looking to spruce up your built-ins, then we’ve got you covered with some really awesome ideas and inspiration to make it happen.
#1: Mirrored Doors
At a high-end luxe vibe in your bedroom with elegant mirrored door fronts. Not only will this look add to a whole new level of luxury in a master bedroom but the mirrors will also add to the illusion of space and light in your room. A win-win situation if you’re willing to take the risk!
#2: Paint Your Cupboard Doors
Don’t settle for the everyday shades of white or beige. Choose a vibrant shade of furniture paint and give your built-ins a whole new look. In a children’s bedroom, you could choose to paint the doorfronts with chalkboard paint and let the little ones continually update their own masterpieces. In your own zen-like bedroom, choose a colour in a complementary shade to the rest of your room and give your old doors new life with a lick of paint!
#3: Upholstered Cupboards
Add texture to your room with beautifully upholstered cupboard doors. We love velvety fabrics and deep button tufting for a truly regal and sophisticated look. You could also opt for a patterned fabric for a pop of colour and interest in your space.
#4: Add Curtains
Feeling brave? Why not get rid of your doors completely and replace them with curtains. Simply install hooks on either end (or a rod) and hang curtains to replace your old cupboard doors. Choose a warm and inviting colour to add energy to your bedroom.
#5: Wood Panels
Add wood panels to your doors and create an elegant and timeless finish in the bedroom. For floor to ceiling built-ins, wooden panels will add height and sophistication to your space.
