12 Miraculous Ways to Achieve a Serene Bedroom (with bed linens and more)
Your bedroom should ooze peace and tranquillity, helping you to get a
proper rest every night, but also smoothing the transition from work to
home life. Here is how to transform your room into the perfect bower of
serenity.
Soothing Colours
Choose a restful and soothing palette for your bedroom, even if you have
a deep and abiding love for all things bright and cheery! As a rule of
the thumb, pick colours from the same half of the colour wheel or even
use two or three shades of the same colour for a truly harmonious
ambiance.
Comforting Bed Linen
The importance of having bedding that feels great may seem so obvious
that it barely warrants mentioning, but many people get so carried away
with the look and appearance of their d?cor that sometimes their own
comfort can fall low on the list of priorities. Choose fabrics that feel
good under your skin, and perhaps even go a step further and opt for
easy-care fabrics that will not crease up causing difficulty when being
ironed and discomfort while being slept on.
Throws and Cushions
Cushions and throws are incredibly useful d?cor tools, able to add
comfort, welcome, texture and interest to a bedroom with their simple
presence! Purchase (or make) a wide selection of cushion covers and
throws ranging from rural simplicity to luxurious hedonism so that you
can easily adapt your bedroom?s d?cor, depending on your mood. I always grab throws and cushions from
Yorkshire Linen because they have a zillion options to choose from!
Peaceful Art
Decorate your walls with works of art that appeal to you. Gentle rolling
landscapes, cute animal pictures and even family photographs all work
well to set the scene in your bedroom, creating a wonderfully welcoming
and beautiful background for your rest and relaxation.
Serene Minimalism
Often what makes d?cor look busy and disruptive is clutter. Avoid this
problem in your bedroom by adopting a minimalist d?cor approach. Insist
on surfaces being left clear at all times, have an unblemished expanse
of floor space, softened only by one or two cushions on the bed, and you
will feel the tensions of the day melt away as soon as you enter this
uncluttered and welcoming space.
Plush Touch of Luxury
Indulge yourself in the bedroom! Buy one or two expensive and good
quality items to add some much needed opulence into the bedroom. You can
pick something like silk sheets or an exquisite vase for your flowers ?
whatever you choose should matter to you and make you feel special and
cosseted.
Good Night (stand!)
Allow enough space for a generously proportioned nightstand next to the
bed. As well as providing somewhere for you to keep your phone, handbag
and the book that you read every night to help you nod off, your bedside
cupboard gives you somewhere private to keep personal items, treasured
photos and even any medication that needs to be taken daily. Tuck items
away in a drawer so that there is no cluttered heap to distract you at
bedtime.
Flowers
I believe in having fresh cut flowers in my bedroom as often as
possible. If your partner gives them to you so much the better, but even
flowers that you have bought or picked for yourself work well to
release a wonderful natural fragrance and fill the bedroom with beauty
and charm.
Serenata Flowers are my favorite, such fresh flowers!
Good Lighting
Good lighting is important in any room, but the bedroom has slightly
different demands. You should be able to have bright, clear lighting
when changing the bedding and cleaning, while still being able to have a
much dimmer, gentle light for when you are getting ready for bed. You
can opt for dimmer switches if you like, or you can ?layer? the light in
and around the room with a series of lamps and side lights as well as
the main, overhead light.
Snug Rug!
Invest in a small bedside rug that boasts soft, warm nap. This will give
you peace of mind in winter, and reassurance that your cosy feet will
not be faced with the nasty cold floor as you grope, half-asleep, for
your slippers in the morning!
Take a Seat
The addition of even a very small chair (or even a small sofa if you
have the room) to your room adds a certain soothing something. Not only
does it provide something to sit upon or temporarily pop your clothes
while choosing your outfit, it helps to finish off the d?cor scheme and
can enhance and complete the look and feel of the room as a whole.
It?s All About YOU
Personalise your bedroom, by putting up pictures and photographs of your
family and friends, picking your favourite colour scheme and generally
stamping your personality all over the room! A room copied from a
magazine will never feel as good as a room designed by you, for you!
