Help needed for this master bedroom with sloped ceilings.

last modified: last month

I want to add moldings on the walls and paint the room to something else. Should I add moldings to the sloped part of the ceiling as well? Also, any other thoughts on what I can do? Was also thinking of adding trim to the windows.

Thanks in advance!

The room doesn't need "trim" .......it needs a more interesting floor. Paint. Hardwood and an area rug , The very last thing I think of in a farmhouse .or Tudor is gray wall to wall carpet.

Then? Decor.!!

What is the bed? side table , lamps, What are the dimensions..will the bed be between the windows or on a long wall? We can't know as we don't know the dimensions of the room .

Your mock up of trim is too much, and your slope ceiling is essentially a tray ceiling, ..

Start at FLOOR level .. If there must be a fan? There are far better fans as well.: Mini blinds can go,,, and I would concentrate on the decorative aspect for the entire room. This seems a tract build, new, and I doubt the other windows in your home are cased, either.

Show some other rooms: ) ? You JUST moved in? Yes?

I ask,,,,,because the bedroom suggests all I mentioned and it isn't usually wise, to attempt to make a home, into something it is not.

Not on the ceiling and maybe on the walls . I think the trim on the walls could make decor difficult so maybe give us some clue as to your style .

Thanks Patricia. I was just hoping for my walls not to look too bare. I don't really have a preferred style. But if I have to choose one, it would be a mixture of modern farmhouse and tudor.

If you can’t remove the carpet then I would spend my money on a fabulous bed and window treatments for the back wall, I don’t think the trim will add much impact and it will be a tedious project

If you don’t have furniture/decor to consider, a mix of Farmhouse (which has style variations) and Tudor is a direction I can’t envision.

The first step is to define the exact style and only then consider the molding’s design. Consider only adding behind the bed and you’ll save money/effort and still have lots of impact.

It can be intimidating to start with a blank slate. See if you can save at least 20 pictures to your empty Ideabook so you know what direction you want to go in. It also helps us understand what you like. It is premature to be doing paneling at this point.

No trim until you get furniture and place it add art a dresser maybe a chair honestly the trim will in no way help. Farmhouse is dying and why tudor at all. I agree post some pics in your idea books so we can see your idea of style . Start with a bed it is a must . That capet will drive the bus so you better love it .

You begin with the floor plan and then decide if the molding on the walls is needed.

Picture frame trim is decidedly TRADITIONAL and so the style of your home and the other rooms has a bearing on if this trim is appropirate. If the home is more CONTEMPORARY then a board and batten trim might fit better.

The trim decision is impacted by your furnishings layout. Here's your bedroom with some furnishings, and then examples of bedrooms that have windows on the bed wall and how those rooms were set up.

Is stuck on moldings the latest Instagram darling? A few years ago it was beadboard!

Spend your money on furniture, window treatments, art, flooring and the space will not be bare.

@chispa, JanMoyer …. Lol, yes I’m not an Instagram follower but I see it all the time on sites such as Apartment Therapy, etc.. That & bubble gum pink seem to be a ”thing” along with those gawd awful disco balls from the 80’s? WTH?

Board and Batten wall examples.

Here's a bedroom with some crown molding as trim.
