Your bedroom should be the coziest place in your home – after all, you spend about a third of the day in it! Here are 6 tricks on how you can conjure up your bedroom even more comfortably.
6 Tricks To Make Your Bedroom Cozier
Seating Corner
A small table and chairs with cushions by the window (or in a corner) immediately make the room appear more inviting. If you have enough space, you can also deposit a small couch in the bedroom. Every seat makes a room more homely (this also applies to large hallways, by the way!). The quiet island can be used as a reading corner, for writing a diary in the evening or for sleepless nights when you just look out the window and let your thoughts run free…
Shelf Behind The Bed
A – at best wooden – shelf behind the bed makes the sleeping place much more domestic. Whether you decorate it with candles or with photos of your loved ones is of course up to you. Even small bed lamps and books can be deposited on it. The shelf creates a distance to the cool wall and makes the room look more comfortable. Small decorative cushions can also be leaned on the shelf for an extra cuddly kick.
The Right Pictures
Photos and pictures on bare walls make every room look more harmonious and invite you to linger. If you want it to be cozy, the rule applies: the thicker the frame, the better! If it fits into the interior, you are welcome to use warm materials. Picture frames made of wood or fabric-covered frames radiate comfort.
If you don’t like picture frames, you can alternatively make a photo wall. To do this, hang (or glue) the selected photos very close together so that they look like wallpaper. Voilà, the bedroom exudes personality – and the photos may inspire sweet dreams…
Plants
A flower says more than a thousand words – this could be the motto for a tranquil interior. Plants breathe life into every apartment and give the impression of peaceful nature. Whether a chic bouquet of flowers (according to the motto: gifts for myself) in a ceramic vase or a green plant – whatever pleases is allowed. The following plants are particularly suitable in the bedroom: the birch fig (filters pollutants), the delicately scented pink jasmine (ensures a more restful night), the easy-care aloe vera (releases oxygen), the lush golden palm (humidifies the air) or the well-known real one Lavender (helps you fall asleep).
Blankets
There are some things in life that you can’t get enough of. In addition to chocolate, this clearly also includes snuggly blankets! They are fluffy, cuddly, plump – an absolute must-have for a cozy bedroom.
And where do you store the – preferably colorful – blankets? No question – wherever you want! On wide window sills, chairs, armchairs, on free shelves, on the bed itself: there are no limits to your imagination!
By the way: Pillows also serve this purpose. Covers made of wool, cotton or fleece create a warm appearance (silk and linen have a cooling effect).
The Right Lighting
Warm light allows us to relax and conveys comfort. Ideally, you should use lamps with fabric shades – whether on the ceiling, wall or bedside table. Bright neon lights, on the other hand, have to stay outside! Cold light has a stimulating effect and has no place in the bedroom. Tip: The color of the wall also makes a big difference. If you paint a wall with a warm color (e.g. with a natural tone like honey, sand color, caramel or ivory) the room will be a lot cozier.
