Fairy lights are definitely not just for Christmas! They are the perfect decoration to make your bedroom cosy and bright all year round. There are so many different styles, colours and sizes available that fairy lights will boost the decor of your room, no matter what your style is. Here are 10 fairy lights bedroom ideas that we are loving!
Firefly Lights
These delicate firefly lights are perfect for dangling from your ceiling and providing a ambient atmosphere in your bedroom! They can be mixed with a string of larger lights if you want them to provide actual light into your space, or attached alone for their aesthetic alone.

These amazing photo walls are very popular on Pinterest and Instagram, and for good reason. They make a perfect feature wall in your room, and the best part is all of the attached Polaroids are little memories to make you smile after a long or stressful day! You can buy strings of lights specifically designed for you to attach photos, or DIY it with a regular set of lights and mini pegs, like these ones from Paperchase.

Glow Jars
These glow jars are perfect if you love the look for fairy lights but you don’t want to hang them up on your walls. This is ideal if your bedroom is in a rented flat, or halls where attaching things to the walls is not allowed! You can make these with any jar or vase and a small string of battery-operated lights. Alternatively, this string of lights from Amazon comes with the jars attached and can be hung from the ceiling to bring a warm feel to your bedroom.

Mirror Fairy Lights
The mirror is one of the best places to attach fairy lights in your bedroom, as it helps to illuminate you as you look into the mirror! It also looks really cute and makes your mirror into more of a feature piece. Use big, round bulbs for a Hollywood dressing-room effect, or try something a bit more rustic with a softer light, like these paper lantern fairy lights.

Light up your Bed
Fairy lights are definitely the cosiest light source you could have in your room, so it definitely makes sense to place them on your bed-frame! Metal bed-frames work best for this look, but they can be attached to any bed with a tall headboard for optimum cosiness as you curl up to watch a film or read before sleeping.

Fairy Light Reading Nook
Speaking of reading – why not create your very own hideaway space in your bedroom to curl up with a good book? This is a DIY project made with a cosy chair, Ikea canopy, fairy lights and floral garlands to make a space where you can curl up with just the perfect amount of light to enjoy your book in peace!

Oversize Bulb String Lights
Though classic fairy lights is their small bulbs, we are loving the effect of oversize fairy lights too! These bulbs emit a bit more light so can be used as a functional light source in your room, whilst keeping the string look of fairy lights. These fairy lights look best when loosely hung up.

Add some fun to your bedroom with novelty lights
The warm glow of fairy lights is one of their best features, but the rise in the availability of fun novelty fairy lights means that no matter what your taste or decor you can find a fun string of lights! We are loving these pineapple lights, with the pineapple being a popular decor motif this year! You can also find Pom-Pom Lights, Watermelon Lights, Cloud Lights and so much more.

Attach lights to the underside of shelves
To avoid marking your walls or painted ceilings by hanging up fairy lights, you can attach them securely to the underneath of your shelves – meaning that they are against the wall, but you can use tape to secure them into place on the shelf. Shorter strings of lights work better for this look, or bulkier lights, as you can secure them tighter than you can by pinning them to the wall. These fairy lights bedroom ideas are cute and chic!
