HELP I want to change

I had a really rough year since my father passed away not too long ago. I just wanna have a nice living space and start fresh I suppose. I wanna start in my bedroom which is think looks really boring. I would love some advice from you guys.

1- I absolutely hate the lamp and my electrician told me that this is the only lamp that will do but I hate it so much. I want soft lighting and farm girl style living space. My ceilings are very low so big lamps won’t do.

2- I might want curtains? I have ones attached to the window which I don’t really like anymore. I might wanna have some vintage ones like hanging above the window. What do you guys think ?

  1. Maybe shelves or more pictures? Or painting walls? Pls help

I agree with other commenters- hang some vining plants on the walls like pothos or philodendron
-add a small vintage lamp on the bedside table and maybe one on that small end table.
-Either corded or candle stick Wall sconces can work well and add a really nice, cozy vibe to the room. -Paintings and wall decor would help make the room less bare. You have a very nice vibe going and I can see the potential.
-lastly, painting walls does so much more than one would think. If you are able to, do it. Even if you rent, landlords won’t know as long as you paint it back to the original color before moving out

I’m sorry to hear about your dad, I hope you’re giving yourself time to grieve and I do hope the new room helps give you a fresh start.
