A bedroom should be a place of rest and rejuvenation and this is only achievable if it looks and feels as splendid as possible. Whether you wish to impress visitors or pamper yourself, there are some great tricks to ensure your bedroom looks as marvellous as it should.
Keep the Floor Free From Clutter
When you are trying to ensure that your bedroom looks as luxurious as possible, a clear and clutter-free floor goes a long way in achieving this. A cluttered bedroom will never look luxurious and even though you may not realise it, very few bedrooms are really clutter-free. Take some time to assess your bedroom and make sure that there are no piles of books or wires taking up space. Not only does this make the room appear bigger, it also helps to show off your furnishings to create a beautiful aesthetic.
Go Green
This trick is a very simple way of upgrading your bedroom from ‘average’ to luxurious; adding some plants and flowers to your bedroom makes a huge difference. While the majority of all house plants can add sophistication and calmness, not to mention scent, to any room, you do not want the greenery to dominate the room. Instead, choose the size, shape and colour of your plant to compliment your bedroom’s aesthetic, rather than take over.
Upgrade Your Furniture
Although this is a longer-term option, it is the most effective in adding that extra touch of luxury. Investing in a statement piece such as a luxury designer bed is not only going to help you sleep better, but it is going to take your bedroom’s appearance to the next level. While shabby-chic furniture can be fashionable, overly worn and broken furniture is not, so be sure to replace any pieces that are starting to wear.
Keep the Focus on a Statement Piece
This tip follows on from my earlier piece regarding keeping the floor free from clutter and my above point about investing in quality furniture. For the ultimate in luxury, focusing on fewer striking pieces makes each individual piece of furniture stand out more effectively whilst keeping the room spacious. This also works well if your budget is a concern, as buying fewer but more impressive pieces is the better option here.
If you do have more than just one statement piece, be sure that they are spread out around the room to avoid over-crowding and that their positioning works to compliment the others, rather than distract from.
Invest in the Décor
It is possible to create a feel of sophistication in the bedroom on a budget, investing in some luxurious upholstery or curtain fabric can help to transform the feel of a room without costing a fortune. However, it is most definitely worth spending time and money on getting the best look for your bedroom. Quality furniture and materials are not cheap and are only rarely effectively replicated, by doing so it is easy to tarnish the ambience of the room and make it all seem cheap.
To keep a bedroom looking as impressive as it should, focusing on quality rather than quantity here is the overall rule. Investments should be made into the key furniture pieces, whilst the softer furnishings and decorations should be used to compliment them to create a luxurious and warm finish.
