5 Easy Ways To Revamp Your Bedroom
Valentine’s Day has now come and gone. But in its wake, it’s very possible that this romantic holiday brought to your attention the ways in which your bedroom could use a little… sprucing up. If you’re looking for simple ways to revitalize your room without the budget and time commitment of a full remodel, we’re here for you. We’ve got 5 ideas to help you give a little love to the room where you get sleep, get intimate, and get recharged.
Declutter
Let’s start with the basics. Decluttering your space can do wonders for your bedroom’s energy. Fold and put away that laundry, sort through those odds and ends that have accumulated on your bedside table, reduce the amount of knickknacks on your bureau and other surfaces, and purge what you can. By reducing the amount of clutter overall, you’ll find it easier to maintain cleanliness – less stuff means less to clean, after all! If possible, reserve your room for rest and intimacy only, keeping work and television in other rooms. If you don’t have the option to have your workspace outside of your bedroom, then ensure that your desk is clean and organized before you go to bed each night. You’ll not only impress guests with a tidy room, but you’ll likely also find that your mind is more at ease.
Repaint
Next up, a simple change that, for a small price and with a little elbow grease, can make a massive difference. Paint! A fresh coat of paint can transform a space. If you have white walls, adding a bit of color (even a soft color) will bring intention to the space. When choosing a paint that’s right for your room, there are a couple things to remember. If your space is small, you may want to opt for a lighter color, which will keep the room feeling bright and open as opposed to dark and closed in. If you have more space to work with, a darker paint tint can help pull a large or oversized room together and give it a cozier feel.
Make A Statement With Curtains
Another element that doesn’t require too much spending but can make all the difference – window treatments! The right curtains can provide a number of things: privacy, insulation, style, and cohesion. When choosing your curtains, consider the color palette you’re building for the space and what styles will compliment other elements in your room, like your bedspread or throw rug. But don’t be afraid to make a statement! These are accent pieces that allow for a little play.
Give Some Love To Your Bed
The bed – it’s the focal point of the room, and it deserves some love. Why? because the love you give to your bed will be given back to you ten-fold. Work with your available budget to upgrade anything from a dated mattress, to that nonexistent bedframe, to thin sheets, to flat pillows, to thread-bare blankets. If you’re not ready to replace your mattress but could use a little extra support, consider a mattress topper and new pillows that cater to your sleeping needs. A bedframe (or even a simple bed skirt) can transform your room from looking like a college student’s pad to a curated space reflecting your personality. In addition to finding a bedframe that speaks to your style, you can also add your personal flare via your bedspread. Again, keep in mind the style and color palette you’re establishing for your revitalized space.
Add Music
A final touch to your new oasis? Tunes. Skip the tinny sounds radiating from your smart phone, though, and opt for a quality speaker to vastly improve your listening experience and the overall ambiance of your room. There are a lot of portable Bluetooth speaker options out there for any budget range, as well as turntable sound systems for all you vinyl lovers. Whatever your preference, up your music game in the bedroom. You’ll find it improves any experience, whether you’re listening to soundscapes as you fall asleep, playing podcasts as you get ready for the day, or setting the mood for an intimate evening.
We hope these ideas help you transform your bedroom into the oasis of relaxation it was meant to be. Ready to make bigger changes?
