4 bedroom feature wall ideas to frame your bed

4 bedroom feature wall ideas to frame your bed

The wall behind your bed is the first thing you see when you step into the room, so it can make a big difference to bedroom design. Consider going beyond hanging photos or a painting – a bedroom feature wall can be a clever way to add depth, personality and style to a defining part of your space.

If you're searching for bed framing ideas or want some fresh bedroom wall paint ideas, here are four creative ways to turn the wall behind your bed into a stunning feature.

1. Wall panelling

Adding texture to a wall instantly elevates a room, and wall panelling is one of the most effective ways to do exactly that. Vertical 'tongue-and-groove' panelling creates a relaxed ambience, while sleek slats give an appealingly modern edge. If you want something bold and dramatic, dark Shaker squares can create an impactful statement wall.

If you prefer a softer look, consider panelling just the top or bottom half of the wall. This is one of those bed framing ideas that feels elegant without being too overwhelming.

2. Fitted furniture

For a feature wall that works hard as well as looking good, fitted furniture is a stylish solution. By placing your bed within a set of overbed wardrobes, you can create a cosy alcove and a bedroom feature wall that frames your bed beautifully while also maximising storage.

This approach is ideal for rooms where space is tight, as it provides clever shelving beside the bed to display books, photos or those small, personal touches. Better still, when you come to Hammonds, every detail of your fitted furniture will be tailored to your room's exact dimensions and your lifestyle, making your home both practical and personal.

3. A dreamy mural

Want your bedroom to feel like a retreat? A mural bedroom feature wall could be the answer. Whether it depicts pastel clouds, a night sky, a sunset or a rich green forest, a mural adds an instant "wow" and creates a beautiful, personalised backdrop that can act almost as a shrine to relaxation.

You can take the effect further with lighting: fairy lights for a warming glow, neon wall art for a playful twist, or even glow-in-the-dark stars for children's rooms to aid sleep. A mural transforms the everyday wall into something magical.

4. Creative paintwork

Sometimes, all it takes to pack a punch is a little creative paintwork. Paint is a versatile tool for zoning and adding energy to your bedroom feature wall. Why not try curving a strong colour around the corner to the window, painting bold geometric shapes, or even running checks up to the ceiling? Implementing some creative bedroom wall paint ideas can make a big difference.

Another idea is to pick out a colour from your headboard and paint either side of the wall in a similar shade. This creates a cohesive, polished look that makes the bed feel beautifully framed within the room.
