This year the set of the Oprah show was uncharacteristically modern. Lots of frosted glass, a neutral color palette of mostly white, with stainless steel accents. This style is perfect for someone who likes clean lines and modern furniture. It is also a great idea for a renter who can’t change the color of the walls or carpet. It is easy to decorate a bedroom inspired by the Oprah on a budget. For an Oprah Inspired bedroom you will need:
5. Neutral color palette: Keep everything white, the carpet, the furniture, even the walls. That’s right, painting isn’t even necessary for this one. No wonder we love Oprah.
4. Furniture: Use furniture with sleek lines. Oprah loves to read, so add in a comfortable chair for all of your Oprah’s book club books. This bed has a retail value of $1049 and is on sale for $619. I choose it because of the color, fabric and the shape will lend a slightly softer air to the room. For nightstands try white or beech wood stacking cubes. This will continue the square theme. The chair was chosen for the modern element of the stainless steel. It retails for $545 but is currently only $219.

3. Accessories: Keep accessories to a minimum. The accessories you use should be large in scale and have a purpose. Use stainless steel lamps and lighting fixtures. Try making your own modern art. Just take a large white canvas and brush stripes of creams and beiges for an inexpensive piece of modern art. This acrylic lamp adds a touch of class for only $49.99.
2. Windows: Try frosting your windows instead of curtains for a sleek modern look. This will keep the square, clean, geometric lines of the windows and make them a focal point, but they will still fit in with the design.
1. Fabric: Use soft cotton sheets and down comforters in white, with big fluffy white pillows. This striped comforter retails at $129.99 and is only $49.99.
