Make it work above a bed

Keep the mood calm

Bedroom prints are seen first thing in the morning and last thing at night. Soft palettes, simple shapes and quiet subjects suit the room better than busy compositions.

Think in pairs

Two matching prints above a bed, or one on each side, is a common layout. Offer the pair in the same ratio so both frames match.

Show the print above the bed

A mockup of the print above a made bed tells the buyer where it goes and how big it reads. Add a close-up for texture.

Name the room in the title

Buyers search by room. Put “bedroom wall art” in the title and in a tag, and a second room phrase, such as “above bed decor”, in another tag.

Step by step: a bedroom print, from idea to listing

  1. Pick a calm subject and palette

    Choose a quiet subject in a soft palette, such as a watercolor sea, simple line art or a muted botanical. Research the subject together with “bedroom” to see how buyers phrase it.

  2. Make the artwork, or a matching pair

    Generate the artwork, then export one 300 DPI file per ratio. For a pair above the bed, keep both prints in the same ratio and palette so the frames match.

  3. Show the print above a made bed

    Make the first photo a bedroom mockup with the print above a made bed in soft daylight, then add a close-up for texture. Etsy recommends listing photos at least 2000 px wide and tall.

  4. Write the listing around the room

    Put “bedroom wall art” in the title and a placement phrase such as “above bed decor” in a tag, use all 13 tags, and say in the description whether the buyer gets one print or a pair.

File set

One file per ratio, sized for the largest frame each ratio reaches:

  • watercolor-sea-2x3-7200x10800.jpg2:3, 7200 × 10800 px, up to 24 × 36 in at 300 DPI
  • watercolor-sea-3x4-5400x7200.jpg3:4, 5400 × 7200 px, up to 18 × 24 in at 300 DPI
  • watercolor-sea-4x5-4800x6000.jpg4:5, 4800 × 6000 px, up to 16 × 20 in at 300 DPI
  • watercolor-sea-11x14-3300x4200.jpg11:14, 3300 × 4200 px, up to 11 × 14 in at 300 DPI
  • watercolor-sea-iso-a-7016x9933.jpgISO A, 7016 × 9933 px, up to 23.4 × 33.1 in at 300 DPI

Upload the prints as separate files rather than one ZIP. Etsy accepts up to 5 files of up to 20 MB each, so each print stays under the per-file limit on its own, and buyers can download only the ratio they need.

Frequently asked questions

What size should bedroom wall art be?

Above a bed, the print or pair of prints usually spans part of the bed’s width rather than all of it. Sell one file per ratio at 300 DPI so the buyer can print the size that fits their wall, and name the largest size each file reaches in the description.

Should I sell bedroom prints in pairs?

Pairs suit bedrooms, where two prints often hang above the bed or one on each side. Keep both prints in the same ratio and palette so the frames match, and list the pair clearly in the title so buyers know they get two designs.

Which mockup works best for a bedroom print?

Use a bedroom scene with the print above a made bed in soft daylight, so the buyer sees the mood and the scale together. Add a close-up crop for texture and a flat view of the full artwork as the last photos.
