As
we approach the year’s end, now’s the perfect opportunity to take a second look
at your home decor and ask yourself: do I really want to enter 2019 surrounded
by this? Although we recommend
tending to every space inside your home, the most egregious of all (when poorly
furnished) happens to be the most personal and private—your bedroom.
Today we’ll review some simple ways you can rethink and rearrange your bedroom decor for 2019, and how you can prepare yourself for a new year full of
adventure, fresh style, and good fortune!
Plan for Seating: Upholstered Benches and Area
Rugs
It’s always unfortunate when we bring best friends and guests into our
bedrooms, only to find that there’s nowhere for them to sit, other than the bed
itself. Don’t trap yourself in this situation; plan accordingly, with an
upholstered bench that greets and entices your visitors. Against bright
windows, bedroom mirrors can act as a clever contrast—redirecting light
throughout your room, and onto other surfaces (expanding your perception of the
space, its size and dimensions).
And who ever heard of a bedroom without cushioned flooring? A tasteful area rug
will be soft on your eyes and your feet.
Cast a Spell on Anyone: Classic Nightstands and
Decor
But the real magic in the bedroom
happens when you nail down your aesthetic—the mood, and the aura you want to
exude, from the moment you settle down, to the moment you wake up. It’s
relatively easy to class-up your bedroom decor. An aged and antique nightstand
sets the stage for further decorating, proclaiming your space as one that is
stately, and finely furnished.
Complement your classic nightstand with another bold and vintage look: an
upholstered storage bed and headboard, alluding to an earlier era altogether.
Accessible Bedroom Dressers: Practicality and
Aesthetics
Much as we may want to
transform our bedrooms into studio spaces and works of art, we know there’s a
practicality to them at the end of the day: where else do we get dressed (when
we want to pick out an outfit)?
Always reserve space in your bedroom for a bedroom dresser and mirror. Beyond
being classy in its own way, a dresser vastly simplifies the process of
dressing in the morning—relaxing you, and freeing up more of your thoughts for
other pursuits.
