It's no wonder the oh-so-popular farmhouse decorating trend has made its way to the bedroom. Just like every other room in the house, the bedroom is a place to express your personal design taste. From pretty to practical, colorful to calming, and really everything in between, the farmhouse bedroom ideas we've curated here will help you find the style you want to achieve for the coziest, most comfortable place to lay your head.

Within this collection of cozy farmhouse bedroom ideas, you'll notice a wide range of styles included. We are so in love with the vintage-packed bunk rooms loaded with personality, like the bedrooms that feature soulful collections, textural layers, and the best bedroom paint colors. But at the same time, we can't get enough of the more serene retreats with all the calming vibes—think neutral tones as a backdrop for simple farmhouse bedroom furniture. In addition, we've included a number of rustic farmhouse bedroom ideas on a budget. Hang collected-over-time artwork in a gallery style for wall art, use passed-down quilts in place of new farmhouse bedroom bedding, or create a statement wall with reclaimed wood. These creative ideas can save you money while still achieving a decidedly farmhouse look.

So whether you're looking for a quiet, rustic retreat to unwind after a long day or a colorful personality-packed space to get you going in the morning, don't sleep on this roundup of classic and modern farmhouse bedroom ideas.

To soften the rustic edges in this primary bedroom, linen draperies are hung at the ceiling height, then puddle to the floor for dramatic effect. White shiplap walls and neutral bedding let the room's impressive architectural details shine.

A simple pencil post bed purchased on an online auction sits against a wall covered in a pretty blue and white floral pattern. Solid bed linens let the wallpaper take center stage. But make no mistake: The real star of the show is that sweet pup sneaking a rest!

Farmhouse Bedroom with Guests in Mind

Rikki Snyder

This bedroom is packed with soulful touches galore, adding loads of character to the small space. On the windows, bark cloth curtain panels that were a popular fabric choice in the 1930s through 1950s bring in bold pattern. A pair of antique portraits reside above a chippy mantel that acts as a shelf for books, frames, and other collected treasures.

Farmhouse Bedroom with Quirky Artwork

We love the quirky collection of dog artwork above the bedside table in this rustic mountain house bedroom. Hand-carved tramp art frames that encase each one make the arrangement complete. The king-size tulip bed was custom-made from ‘Tiger Eye’ maple.

Farmhouse Bedroom in Earthy Tones

In this Wisconsin cabin bedroom, a groovy vintage wildlife-themed tapestry subs in as a creative headboard for an instant conversation piece. A beat-up wooden "Lookout" sign above secures a velvet-covered mount. In contrast, the clean-lined bed is made up with navy, white, and yellow bedding for a tidy, modern look.

Farmhouse Bedroom in an Attic Space

The spacious attic-turned-bunkroom now houses five antique twin beds in total. The previously unfinished space is now clad in wood paneling for a decidedly farmhouse look. Mismatched quilts up the cozy factor, and a stately taxidermy watches over the sleeping quarters.

Masculine stripes on the bedding, feminine florals on the accent pillow and curtains, and a patterned vintage rug give a collected-over-time feel. The early-1900s armoire with its original blue paint is from a local shop.
