11 Proven Tips For Seasonal Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor

No one really talks much about seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall decor. In fact, most professional interior designers hardly discuss farmhouse bedroom wall decor at all. Why?

Because they rarely get any profit out of it. That’s the bitter reality of most “home decor professionals.”

Thankfully, I’m not an interior designer who will only suggest tips out of self-interest. I’m an interior designer by heart who wants to see the best farmhouse bedroom wall decor in your home at the lowest cost possible.

That’s why I guarantee that these 11 tips for seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall decor are the best for a complete bedroom makeover.

Why Is Seasonal Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor Important?

I write about these home decor tips for my passion and based on my 3 years of experience. And from my experience, I’ve noticed that it’s become awfully difficult to adapt your bedroom wall decor based on the time of year.

In other words, decor that may look good in January, during the winter, may look out of place in October, during the fall. That’s why seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall decor is so important.

Seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall decor makes sure that your bedroom decor looks appealing year-round. Or, with the right strategies, you can quickly and affordably change your wall decor according to the season.

In the long term, seasonal decor will save you a lot of money and time, both of which I know you want more of.

Tip #1: Choose a Timeless, Versatile Wall Color

Remember, one of your biggest goals for ANY type of seasonal decor is making it as versatile as possible. And what better way is there than a base wall color that works with most farmhouse wall decor styles?

My Recommended Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Colors

So you want to paint your walls a color that looks fantastic with any type of wall art or decor. But let me guess what the issue is. You’re not absolutely sure about which color to go for.

Don’t worry, I was in the exact same position as you a few years ago, and I just didn’t want to decide a wall color unless I was ABSOLUTELY certain. I just didn’t want to end up regretting my decision and repainting my walls.

So here’s what I did instead. I looked at hundreds of different farmhouse bedrooms and took note of the different wall colors. Some wall colors were clearly more common than others, but that doesn’t mean they’re better or more versatile.

To conclude which colors are the best for all types of farmhouse wall decor, I looked at various types of farmhouse bedroom decor, ranging from season to season. Then, I made a list of wall colors that worked well with ALL of these types of farmhouse decor.

Here’s my list as shown in the images below:

1. Whitewash white
2. Neutral beige or taupe
3. Soft gray
4. Warm cream
5. On rare occasions, very light blue or yellow

Tip #2: Wall Art Switch-Ups for Seasonal Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor

Wall art is absolutely essential to any farmhouse bedroom, regardless of the season or time of year. But here’s where I’ve seen many people mess up.

They buy one piece of wall art and keep that up year-round. Most canvases are made for a specific occasion, such as fall or Christmas. So if you keep that canvas with reindeer up all year, I think we both see the issue with that.

To fix this problem, you have multiple options, each with different difficulties and price levels.

Your Easiest Option: Buying Multiple Farmhouse Wall Art

The easiest option is to buy 4-5 farmhouse style canvases for varying seasons and occasions. For example, one could be for spring/Easter while another could be for winter/Christmas (as shown in the images above).

Then, you simply rotate through these canvases throughout the year and BOOM. You got yourself seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall art.

My favorite website to purchase canvas wall art is CanvasVows. They sell various types of canvases, and the best part is that they’re all USUALLY at an affordable rate. Of course you might find a few expensive outliers.

However, the only drawback to this option is that it could get quite expensive.

But here’s the good news. You still have another option.

Your Cheapest Option: Crafting Seasonal DIY Wall Art Yourself

If you’ve been following FME Articles for a while, you’d know that I’m all about saving money. My biggest goal is to help you save money on any type of home decor.

In this case, the cheapest way to achieve seasonal farmhouse bedroom wall decor is creating multiple DIY wall art yourself.

Another benefit of DIY wall art is that you can have multiple artworks for your favorite seasons. Maybe you just LOVE winter and want more winter farmhouse wall decor variety. With DIY wall art, you can make that happen.

Still, start with creating one piece of artwork for each season and then creating more for your favorite seasons. This way you don’t end up creating 5 pieces of artwork for winter and 0 for spring. That kind of defeats the whole purpose of SEASONAL farmhouse bedroom wall decor.

Simple DIY Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor Projects for Beginners

I’ll be honest with you. I’m not the best at art myself, so I definitely don’t expect you to be some sort of professional artist either. If you are, then great! If not, then you’ll need expert support (just like I did).

So here is my favorite tutorial to create DIY farmhouse bedroom wall decor:

Tip #3: Utilizing Seasonal Wreaths

Farmhouse wall decor often involves wreaths. So why not bring that to your own bedroom..but with a small twist?

Now you could go ahead and buy the first wreath you find on Amazon, but you’re most likely going to find a completely green wreath (at least that’s what I found when I searched up “farmhouse style bedroom wreath” on Amazon). That’s perfect for spring, but that’s not what I call seasonal.

Thankfully, there are many types of wreaths, ranging from season to season.

My Recommendations

The types of wreaths you decide to purchase depends on various factors, such as the season (as you probably guessed) and any other occasion/holiday.

For example, you might want a farmhouse style bedroom wreath for Halloween or Christmas or even Valentine’s Day! These wreaths tend to be different from your typical seasonal wreaths.

Still, I highly recommend that you get 4 seasonal wreaths FIRST before buying any other type of wreath.

Once you get a winter, spring, summer, and fall wreath for your farmhouse bedroom wall decor, you have your yearly rotation set. With just these 4 wreaths, you can go the entire year without feeling like your farmhouse decor is out of season.

Then—and only then—should you get additional farmhouse wreaths for your favorite holidays for a cozier bedroom vibe.

Tip #4: Optimizing Farmhouse Style Lighting Techniques for Different Seasons

Lighting makes a much bigger difference than you might think, whether that be for your living room, dining room, or bedroom. Lighting matters.

Specifically, for seasonal farmhouse bedroom decor the perfect natural lighting and the type of light fixtures you have make the biggest impact.

That’s exactly why I’m about to dive deeper into the best styling techniques for bedroom farmhouse natural lighting and light fixtures.

Farmhouse Natural Lighting

The more natural light you have in your bedroom, the better your farmhouse wall decor will look.

I’ve written a complete guide to maximize bedroom natural lighting on a budget. I highly recommend that you quickly skim through the tips I’ve discussed in that guide, so you can use as much natural lighting for your farmhouse decor.

This tip applies to all seasons, even though some seasons obviously receive more natural light than others. But by letting in as much natural light as possible throughout the entire year, your wall decor will stand out.

Light Fixtures for Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor

Most people are switching to modern farmhouse bedroom decor, which I absolutely love. This modern farmhouse decor combination opens you up to tons of more lighting options, making it MUCH easier for you.

You can honestly use almost any type of light fixture for modern farmhouse bedroom wall decor, but don’t worry if you don’t want modern farmhouse bedroom decor.

I’ve written this blog post for farmhouse decor, so here are my top 3 lighting suggestions for just farmhouse wall decor (as shown in the bedroom decor ideas below):

1. Traditional chandeliers, particularly those used in dining rooms. A chandelier will be the focal point of your farmhouse lighting
2. Pendant lights: great for highlighting wall decor
3. Wall sconces are placed on your wall, contributing to your farmhouse wall decor for just about any room, including guest rooms. This type of lighting is typically known as bedside lighting.

Tip #5: Creating a Seasonal Farmhouse Gallery Wall

In tip #2, I talked about seasonal wall art and switching them according to the season. But what if you want more art on your wall?

In that case, you need to create a seasonal farmhouse gallery wall, which is a collection of wall art hung together.

We’re looking to create a permanent farmhouse gallery wall that works with all seasons, meaning you’ll never have to touch it again. To do so, you need to primarily focus on the photo frames and seasonal prints.

Seasonal Farmhouse Photo Frames Advice

A gallery wall typically involves photos of family or other loved ones in your life. But here’s the issue with that. You can’t make photos seasonal or farmhouse style.

So what I recommend instead is using seasonal farmhouse photo frames.

You can either replace these farmhouse photo frames according to the season or get a variety of frames for every season to create a versatile farmhouse gallery wall that you never have to touch again.

I suggest that you get a variety of frames for every season because it will truly save you a lot of money and effort.

Seasonal Farmhouse Prints Advice

To create the most aesthetic and unique farmhouse gallery wall possible, you need to have more than just photos. Yes, photos of loved ones give your bedroom more personality. But in terms of bedroom wall decor, they’re not enough.

What you also need is a few seasonal farmhouse prints that add to your overall farmhouse bedroom wall decor.

I recommend that you get these prints on Amazon for the free shipping and ease of returns. That’s where I get most my own home decor, whether it be for bedrooms or living rooms.

Tip #6: Incorporate Floating Shelves

Floating shelves are a staple of farmhouse wall decor. In fact, I argue that they’re a staple of any type of wall decor. I even recommended floating shelves for black living room decor.

I also love floating shelves because they’re a unique way to display wall decor. Let me ask you something. How many bedrooms have you seen floating shelves in?

Almost none, right? That’s exactly why they’re so unique.

How to Use Floating Shelves for Seasonal Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor

Floating shelves themselves are used in almost all farmhouse decor styles, but they’re not seasonal (as you probably guessed).

To use floating shelves for seasonal farmhouse decor, all you have to do is add small seasonal decor items on top of the shelves. Then, rotate these items throughout the seasons.

Trust me, this is one of the easiest ways to keep your bedroom wall decor looking updated at all times. Plus, it’s the farmhouse decor style!

Many of my readers have told me that they don’t know what to place on top of their floating shelves, so here are some of my favorite ideas:

1. Summer Plant Tiered Tray Decor (Check current price on Amazon)
2. All Seasons Farmhouse Wood Block Sign (Check current price on Amazon)
3. Vintage Farmhouse Style Easter Metal Sign (Check current price on Amazon)
4. Spring Rustic Wood Block Sign (Check current price on Amazon)
5. Winter 14 Set Tiered Tray Decor (Check current price on Amazon)

Tip #7: Enhance Farmhouse Bedroom Wall Decor Using Tapestries

Tapestries are becoming less common in modern decor, but they still look just as appealing in farmhouse decor.

What I love the most about tapestries is that they’re made of wool. This wool material gives them a unique vintage texture that looks perfect in farmhouse bedroom decor.

Tapestries vs. Typical Wall Art for Farmhouse Decor

I’ve heard many concerns about why people should choose tapestries over typical wall art, such as canvases, for farmhouse decor.

The main difference between typical wall art and tapestries is that tapestries have more unique designs and patterns. These designs add more to your bedroom decor and truly give it the farmhouse appearance that you’re looking for.

Additionally, tapestries are MUCH bigger and cheaper, meaning you get more for your buck. I apologize if that’s too cringey.

Seasonal Farmhouse Wall Tapestries

Now you could get a basic tapestry that works throughout the entire year. But that wouldn’t be seasonal.

Just like typical wall art, many tapestries have designs suited for different seasons. I recommend that you get a few tapestries, each for a different season and, you guessed it, rotate through these tapestries.

And it shouldn’t be a heavy burden on your wall because tapestries tend to be quite affordable (which is why I choose them over typical wall art).

Conclusion

You can apply these farmhouse bedroom wall decor tips to almost any part of your home, such as living room, dining room, or even guest room. This is truly all you need for a successful journey to a complete farmhouse style home.

Here’s a quick summary of all 7 tips I described above:

1. Choose a timeless bedroom wall color that works with many types of decor
2. Rotate between seasonal farmhouse wall art
3. Use seasonal wreaths to give your bedroom the farmhouse look
4. Achieve the best lighting to enhance your farmhouse wall decor
5. Create a permanent seasonal farmhouse gallery wall
