Bedrooms are incredibly personal. It’s the one room in your house that’s just yours (and maybe your partner’s). The kids don’t go in there much, you don’t entertain guests in there. It’s just yours. It’s the room where you relax at the end of the day. It’s where you are at your most intimate and your most exposed. So, it’s important that you find ways to make it suit you perfectly. Here are some tips to help.
A Great Bed
Choosing a bed is a very personal choice and you are unlikely to love the first one you see. Your bed should always be the focus of your bedroom, the thing you see first when you walk through the door, welcoming you into the room and getting you in the mood to relax. So, it’s important to take your time to get it right. Check out Revival Beds who have a huge range of beds in different shapes and sizes to suit all needs and tastes.
Once you’ve chosen your bedframe, think about what kind of mattress you want. Your mattress is incredibly important so, if you can, spend a little more and get something you know will help you to get a great night’s sleep for years to come.
Bedding
Your bedding should be soft, comfortable and stylish. Try to stick to light soothing colours, which can help you to feel relaxed and peaceful.
Pictures
One of the best ways to make your room more personal is to add some artwork and photographs to your walls and shelves. Art is very personal, so don’t worry about what’s popular or what other people like. Shop around until you spot something you love. If you don’t want to spend money on originals, prints can make a brilliant alternative and once they are hung or framed, you can barely tell the difference.
Seating
If you’ve got space, adding some seating to your bedroom can be a fantastic way to give it some extra comfort. Create a reading nook with plenty of soft furnishings and all your favourite books nearby. This lovely relaxing space can be a great addition to your home.
Colour
Try to stick to lighter colours in your bedroom. Neutral walls are great as they make it easy to accessorise. But, if you’d prefer some colour, try cooling blues or purples, which are exceptionally relaxing. Keep the bolder colours to your accessories and soft furnishing.
Flooring
Wooden floors are stylish and easy to look after, but nothing beats the feeling of a nice fluffy carpet under your feet in the morning. If you want the best of both, add a luxurious rug to your wooden floor.
Accessories
Adding soft furnishings such as cushions, blankets, and bed runners is a nice way to make the room appear more relaxing and comfortable by creating a cosy atmosphere.
There is a lot to think about when it comes to designing your perfect room so take your time. Write some ideas down, try some different colours together and get some samples. Then remember to have some fun. Decorating doesn’t need to be stressful. Let yourself enjoy creating your perfect space.
