Have you ever had a romantic encounter with someone in a strange location? Whether it was a risky encounter outside or you were strapped for time and cash and booked out a cheap motel, it might sound exciting but it can be less than romantic.

The environment where we have sex is important. It has a big impact on how we feel when we're in the bedroom. It's as much about what we see around us, what we smell and what we touch as it is about the act itself and your partner if we feel more comfortable it can be a better experience.

Here's how to decorate a bedroom for a romantic night.

1. Make Sure It's Clean

One of the most important things for a romantic bedroom is ensuring it is clean. Nobody wants to see dirty washing everywhere or to start sneezing because the room is so full of dust, what a mood killer!

Instead, be sure to clean the room the day before. Use a vacuum cleaner and take out all the heavy items and belongings beneath the bed to make sure you get to every nook and cranny.

Consider hiring a cleaner if you find cleaning a chore or are not very good at it, but don't tell your partner. Pretend you did it and she will be impressed.

Romance in a clean room can be the perfect end to a date night at the theatre.

2. Low-Level Lighting Or Candles

Low-level lighting is always romantic. Too many bright lights can blind you and make you feel too awake. If you don't have a dimmer switch on your light switch then consider buying lamps that do.

Remember there are lamps with all different kinds of lightning arrangments: choose the one for just the right occasion and don't be scared to have an honest conversation with the shopkeeper about the true purpose of the light.

Consider purchasing candles as well as an option but ensure they are well away from the bed and are covered so you don't knock them over and set your room on fire.

Design a room with fairy lights. This is a great way of reusing Christmas lights. But remember they can easily appear tacky if you use too many.

3. Red

Red is the color of romance. It is always the color to get us in the mood so when considering romantic bedroom ideas always be sure to bear this in mind. Rose petals on the bed might be a step too far but you can always change the duvet to a red color.

You could also consider a vase of roses on the bedside table or even a red rug. In low light, they will look superb and won't be too strong.

How to Decorate a Bedroom For a Romantic Night? Keep it Clean And Red
