Scroll through our many modern bedroom ideas and design options to find the perfect natural elements for your own decoration and room inspiration today.
The bedroom is supposed to be an oasis. A retreat. A place for you to let go of the day and enjoy the comfort of your own home away from the rest of the world.
Warm and Cozy Bedroom with Natural Light
Some people just want to wake up in the morning to the warmth of the sun on their face. If that sounds like you, then you should consider incorporating more natural lighting into your bedroom. A large window on its own (or with a simple sheer curtain) can provide an easy way to get the earthy light of the outdoors into the comfort of your own bedroom with neutral tones for relaxation and unwinding.
Sand Inspired Textured Bedroom Decor
An incredibly easy way to incorporate natural themes into your bedroom is by simply updating the colors to more earthy tones. In lieu of greens and blues, opt for more neutral tones such as a sand-inspired beige color palette. This can be done with an area rug, wall hangings, throw pillows, or bedroom furniture. Use whatever elements your heart desires and infuse some sandy, earthy colors into your bedroom with ease.

Cozy Bedroom with Natural Light
If you’re seeking simplicity, that doesn’t have to also mean austerity! In fact, the white bedroom look — with white walls, white accents, and plenty of white space to boot — can be just as cozy as any of the more quirky options. One way to achieve this look without being overly sparse is through different shades of white and other neutral colors like gray and/or shades of blue. Whether this is your look for the master or guest bedroom, anyone sleeping in this snuggly spot is sure to feel right at home.
Natural Wooden Bedroom Design
As far as natural bedroom ideas and elements are concerned, you’d be hard pressed to find anything as organic as good old fashioned, plain wood. For all its simplicity, few design materials have the same effect as hardwood floors, wooden beams, and even warm wood roofing (especially when coupled with high ceilings). If you want the natural bedroom of your cabin-inspired dreams, then seek out wooden alternatives — they exist for practically every feature available! If it fits your overall aesthetic, it’s difficult to go too far with wooden elements.

Plants, Plants, Plants
Green thumb or not, plants have become a staple of interior decoration. Not only do they provide a natural presence, but they offer a sense of tranquility and peace indoors. For this reason, they complement nearly any bedroom design perfectly, from rustic bedrooms to more modern design appeal. As with wood, it’s hard to take plants too far with bedroom decor. As we will see below, you can even place them in unlikely places for an additional touch of nature in the comfort of your bedroom.
Modern Chic Rustic Decor for the Bedroom
Sometimes, the bedroom itself is the focal point. If you’re a person who advocates simplicity by nature, then this particular aesthetic might fit you and your tastes as snug as a bug in a rug! Some people like to offer an assortment of different elements throughout the bedroom. But you may want to have your own minimalist bedroom be the primary visual reference point itself without any extra elaboration or fussiness. In these cases, your bed frame, organic bedding, and overall rustic look provide more than enough to please the eye and the heart at the same time.
Modern Natural Oasis Bedroom
For many people, the bedroom is supposed to be an oasis. A retreat. A place for you to let go of the day and enjoy the comfort of your own home away from the rest of the world. If that’s you, then consider this principle: imagine your perfect bedroom and make it so. Whether that’s a bungalow-inspired room (as in the image) or a more casual, light, and breezy atmosphere more generally, it’s up to you. The most important aspect is that you make it your own and incorporate natural elements that bring your spirit some rest and relaxation.
Pallet Bedroom Accoutrement
If you’re looking for some bedroom accoutrement that also doubles as a design motif, look no further than simple wooden pallets. You can rest your organic mattress on top for a simple bed frame, use it as a wooden instrument backdrop, or even set it upright against the wall to drape your blankets and towels on. For those seeking a little extra something to bring their natural bedroom ideas to life, a wood pallet may be exactly what the doctor ordered.
Cotton Blossom Decorations
Given our love of organic cotton here at SLEEP365, it’s probably not too surprising that we have included cotton blossoms as one of our favorite natural bedroom ideas. Even so, everyone can enjoy the fresh look and feel of cotton in the bedroom. Cover your bed in organic cotton bedding and sheets, or strategically place cotton blossom stems (real or faux!) on your bedside table or window sill. Infusing a little bit of cotton in your bedroom can breathe new life into an existing space with almost no effort at all.
Reclaimed Wood Interior Design
Recycle, reuse, and reduce! This is the mantra of those looking to make the most of our precious resources on Mother Earth. If this sounds like you (and we know it probably does), then you might want to consider using reclaimed wood. Reclaiming wood not only helps the planet by cutting down fewer trees, but it’s also an instant conversation piece in any bedroom, whether master or guest. It has an organic and natural feel, because, well, it is natural! Plus, as a cherry on top, reclaimed wood often has a unique history all its own, which you can build on for generations to come.
Natural Pine Cone Door Decor
Often considered a Christmas and Holiday season staple, pine cone decor is actually a beautiful natural element to have displayed year-round. In the bedroom, pine cones can be utilized as bedside table or coffee table dressing next to a good book. In addition to the side of the bed, they can also be hung from door knobs, or even suspended from the wall or ceiling for even more of an outdoorsy bedroom motif. To finish off the look with a little extra visual interest, include a few pine needles or branches as well to give your pine cone designs the essence of hillside and countryside alike.
Bamboo Wood Themed Bedroom
In the same vein as cotton (mentioned earlier), few materials really get right to the heart of what it means to be “natural” as deeply as bamboo. It’s an abundantly cultivated resource that grows quite speedily. As such, it offers an ideal solution for those wanting to add more nature into their home. If you’re remodeling or involved in new construction, consider using bamboo instead of more common materials. For those adding new decorative elements, bamboo works here just as well — in the form of bamboo shoots and even bedding and sheets derived from the plentiful plant itself.

Macrame Hanging Wall Art
Given the wide variety of decor styles and options available today, it’s no wonder that macrame has seen a comeback of sorts. The beautiful fabrics and natural fibers of macrame designs offer a unique and stylish element to any bedroom looking for a subtle flourish. Macrame hanging wall art with lighter colors is also another great way to fill out a small room without too much flash. It’s also helpful by not taking up the precious small space that may be available on the floor.
Hanging Plant Art
As promised, our final natural bedroom idea involves a unique and inspired use of plants as a sort of statement piece. Instead of setting them on the floor or displaying them on a table, however, there’s one spot you might have missed: the ceiling! That’s right, you can absolutely hang plants from your bedroom ceiling. As in the image, you can craft a little nook for your hanging plants that creates a lush and verdant atmosphere sure to calm you in even the most stressful of moments. It’s one more picture-perfect way to infuse more of the natural into all the available space in your bedroom.
