Sprucing up your bedroom is a good way to increase the quality of your sleep and to provide you with a relaxing space to enjoy the end of a busy day. Here are some tips that will help you improve the overall look of your bedroom.
Overcome the mess – Clearing out clutter is the first thing that should be on your list. Look at getting rid of old furniture, books, and clothes that you haven’t used in over a year. It is easier to keep a space neat if fewer items are visible. Consider cleaning out your closet and including storage baskets to sort your clothing.
Wake up the walls – A fresh new wall color will create an interesting backdrop for your bedroom. Look at colors like soft blues, greens or grays for a modern yet restful feeling
The bed – The focal point of a bedroom is its bed. Look at creating interest by adding a new headboard in a rich fabric like velvet, butter leather or woven tapestry. For a more casual feel, you could look at using reclaimed wood planks from an old barn.
Embrace the small stuff – Look at changing the knobs or handles of your side tables, dresser or cupboard to something that stands out. Consider knobs in chrome, glass or vintage designs that complement your space.
Linen and furnishings – Invest in good quality linen and furnishing to improve the look of your bedroom. A relaxed bedroom may look best in colors like beige, gray, pale yellow or lime while a more mature space will look it’s best in colors like charcoal, maroon, ivory, and chocolate brown.
