Transform Your Bedroom With One Of Pinterest's Biggest Color Trend Predictions With These 8 Ideas
When it comes to 2025's hottest bedroom makeover, the answer is as sweet as it sounds: cherry coded. According to Pinterest's trend predictions, this bold, vibrant hue is set to infuse bedrooms with personality and flair, with searches for "cherry bedroom" skyrocketing by 100%. Think deep, rich reds that exude warmth and passion, paired with playful pops of blush and berry tones. It's more than just a color — it's a mood that's capturing the hearts (and pinboards) of Gen Z and Millennials alike. In 2025, it's all about embracing the sweet, tart energy of cherries and letting it redefine your space.
Cherry red can instantly energize your bedroom decor, adding a bold yet inviting touch that transforms the space into a vibrant retreat. "Our #1 rule when it comes to decorating with red is to think about the mood and atmosphere that you want to create in the space," Cortney Novogratz, an interior designer, told Tempaper & Co. Novogratz appreciates the playful, vibrant feel that a pop of cherry red can bring to your room. However, lots of cherry red can give a dramatic touch to your decor, too. Whatever you choose, it's easy to incorporate this trending color into your bedroom!
Paint a bold cherry red accent wall
Make a statement in your bedroom by painting a bold cherry red wall. When used on an accent wall, this striking color choice creates a focal point that draws the eye. Pair it with an unexpected color combination such as neutral blue greens to balance the vibrancy and keep the space feeling cohesive. For added depth, consider a satin finish to add elegance to your walls. An accent wall is a perfect way to embrace red shades to add a passionate pop of color.
Go for a color-block effect with contrasting wall colors
Create a modern look by using cherry red in a color-block effect with contrasting wall colors. Pair a rich cherry red section with crisp white or soft beige for a clean, balanced aesthetic, or go daring with a deep blue or charcoal gray for dramatic flair. Also, you could divide your wall into two sections by painting only the lower or upper half in a bold color. Consider sealing your painter's tape to ensure clean lines, making the design look polished and intentional.
Mix and match patterns with hints of cherry
Cherry can have a more romantic vibe when you incorporate it through patterns, blending hints of the hue instead of relying on a bold, singular shade. One simple way to introduce patterns is through wallpaper, which can be complemented by coordinating accents in the same shade for a cohesive look. Consider the impact of the wallpaper's design — small patterns make a room feel more open and airier, while large patterns can create a feeling of intimacy. You can commit with traditional wallpaper or try the look with peel-and-stick wallpaper first.
Choose a funky red accent chair to bring the drama
If painting or wallpapering an entire wall cherry red feels like too much, consider adding a pop of the bold hue through a standout piece of furniture. A cherry-red chair, like the ZJhome Mid-Century Modern Velvet Barrel Chair, can bring just the right amount of drama to your bedroom. These pieces perfectly complement a mid-century modern decor aesthetic, with their sleek, retro designs and striking color creating a show-stopping combination.
Add a sweet touch of cherry through your bedding
Infuse your bedroom with a sweet touch of cherry by incorporating it into your bedding. Go all in with a full bedding set, such as the Softta Luxury King Size Vintage Red Flower Paisley Pattern set, or simply get new pillowcases, like these NTBAY Egyptian Cotton Queen Pillowcases. To balance the richness of the deep red, mix in softer shades like cream for a romantic, inviting look. Textures such as satin can further enhance the cozy, luxurious feel, making your bed the star of your cherry-coded retreat.
Think velvet accent pieces in the bedroom
A classic fabric first created in Egypt in 2000 B.C.E., velvet has been bringing a luxurious feeling to homes for millennia — literally! If you're looking for stylish ways to incorporate velvet into your home decor, think cherry red accent pieces in the bedroom, particularly near a window. The way velvet interacts with light allows any color, including cherry red, to assume a striking, voluminous look.
Add a pop of color with a red mirror
Add a splash of color and a touch of drama with a cherry-red mirror that doubles as wall art. Apart from giving the bedroom a touch of red, a mirror can reflect natural light, making the room feel brighter and more spacious. Whether hung above a dresser or as a focal point on a feature wall, a cherry-red mirror adds a vibrant, artistic element to your space.
Think luxurious with a cherry red shag rug
Shag rugs are the perfect way to incorporate a mid-century modern feel in a low-traffic area such as a bedroom. Their plush, luxurious fibers provide a cozy feeling underfoot. "Texture is everything, so having furniture pieces on the shag in contrasting materials like leather or velvet can create beautiful layers and depth in the space," Amy Storm, owner and lead designer of Amy Storm & Co, told Jaipur Living. Consider adding your own cherry shag rug, such as the Chicrug Soft Area Rugs in red.
