How to turn your bedroom into a sanctuary

Your bedroom is your sanctuary and so needs to be calming, cosy and inviting. In our previous post we looked at how colour can affect the mood and feel of your bedroom. Now, we are going to look at how you can work with your existing design to create a bedroom that is the soothing sanctuary of your dreams.

1. Invest in beautiful bedding

Getting into a comfy bed at the end of the day instantly takes you to a place of relaxation. To achieve that beautiful relaxed hotel feeling invest in some top quality natural bed linen. Go for a duvet cover and undersheet with a high thread count such as our Egyptian Cotton 1000 thread count duvet set. Produced from the finest fibres, this cotton bedding will keep its strength, softness and lustre for years to come.

2. Rearrange

Measure your bedroom and furniture to create a scaled drawing on square paper.  Cut the furniture out and move them around the floor plan of your bedroom to find the best layout. Turning your bedroom into a comfortable living space is about selecting and arranging appropriately sized furniture. Come back to your new layout a few days later and see whether you still like it. Once you are happy rearrange your bedroom to create a more harmonious flow.

3. Comfort comes first

Whilst a minimalistic feel can work in kitchens and dining rooms, your bedroom needs to be comfortable as well as functional. Jazz up your dressing table chair and bed with stylish pillows and throws. The colour scheme you go for depends on the look you want to achieve. For a subtle and stylish feel go for pillows and throws in the different tones of your key colour, for an eclectic and bold look mix and match colours and prints.

4. Introduce soft lighting

In the bedroom, lighting is one of the most important aspects to consider. For the summer months consider adding a voile or organza drape behind your curtains. Reducing glare and softening the light, this will help create a more relaxed environment. Use fairy lights and dimming lights to create a restful atmosphere before you go to sleep.

5. Declutter your space

Take the time to think about the available space in your bedroom. Keep clutter and excess furniture to a minimum.  Keep ornaments and knick-knacks to minimum, if you have lots of linen and clothes, keep them organised in drawers and cupboards.
