Masculine Bedroom with touches of vibrant color |
Decorating Notes:
Whether you are decorating a room for a bachelor or a couple it is important to keep the man happy. For a happy marriage, keep the husband happy and everything else will fall into place. Without hanging a moose head over the bed, you can still embrace masculine touches without sacrificing style.
Color Notes:
In a masculine palette you want to ground the room with black and earth tones. In this decorating scheme, the black and white striped rug anchors the room and allows for more vibrant touches and chartreuse green and orange. The tree art pulls the whole room together in an interesting way.

Original Tree Art, “Funky Forest” by Miriam Schulman |
Art Notes:
Men who like the outdoors will appreciate a landscape painting or an abstract tree art. Men and boys of all ages are attracted to my collage art. They especially like the musical notes ( if they are into music, and who isn’t into music?!)

leopard prints add subtle sexiness |
The leopard print adds a bit of sexiness perfect for the bedroom but equally at home in a global chic living room. This original mixed media collage tree pictures an abstract landscape with bare trees in a forest lit up by the exuberant red with a funky leopard print on the forest floor.

Piano Sheet Music Make the Bark of the trees |
The collage elements are torn pieces of painted pieces of sheet music as well as watercolor papers.
The painted piano sheet music represents the bark of birch trees. This stunning large wall art will look great with many decorating schemes. Dominant colors in this artwork are orange, red and brown with touches of chartreuse green and honey gold.

More Decorating Ideas for the Masculine Bedroom
Karen, I was simply copying all the items I found in the room view above, and there was a poppy vase. I like yours better because I think the chunky pottery has a more rustic vibe.
Miriam, forward thinking that you chose my little poppy vase for a masculine room. Most would never think of such a thing for a man but hey- men are romantics and like flowers too! It was my recent trip to France that inspired them and I imagine them in a sexy French mans room… tee hee
