Easy Styling Projects For Your Bedroom This Weekend

Easy Styling Projects For Your Bedroom This Weekend

Styling is the quickest way to give your bedroom a fresh, inviting look, and we've got just the ideas to help you achieve that cosy and stylish space. Whether you use items you already have or go on a little shopping spree, these quick projects will transform your bedroom in no time. 

1. Refresh Your Bedding

The bed is the focal point of any bedroom, and updating your linens can make a significant impact. Here’s how to give your bed a boost:

Sheets: 

White bed sheets are timeless and versatile, making them a safe choice. They provide a clean, crisp look that can easily be paired with other colors and patterns.

Duvet:

Upsize any old duvet or quilt for plenty of overhang. This not only covers the mattress but also creates a plush, inviting look. Choose a pretty cover that reflects your style, whether it’s a solid color, a subtle pattern, or something bold.

Throws:

Add a throw or blanket to bring another layer of texture and color to your bed. A chunky knit throw is perfect for winter coziness, while a lighter linen throw is great for summer.

Pillows & Cushions:

Pillows and cushions add personality to your bed. A simple yet stylish combination is four standard pillows at the back and three decorative cushions in front. This creates a balanced and plush look.

 2. Style Up your Bedside Table

A well-styled bedside table can enhance the overall look of your bedroom. Here are some quick tips:

Lighting:

A beautiful bedside lamp not only provides functional lighting but also adds a decorative element. Choose a lamp with a warm light that complements your room’s style, whether it’s modern, rustic, or classic.

Books:

Stack a couple of your favorite books or magazines on the bedside table. They add a personal touch and a bit of height variation.

Decorative Items:

Incorporate a few small decorative items like a pretty vase with fresh flowers, a small plant, or a stylish alarm clock. These items add character without cluttering the space.

Tray:

A small tray can help organize smaller items like jewelry, glasses, or a candle, keeping your bedside table neat and stylish.

 3. Enhance Your Walls

Updating your wall decor can instantly refresh your bedroom. Here are some ideas:

Artwork:

Hang a piece of art or a gallery wall above your bed or on an empty wall. Choose pieces that resonate with you and complement your bedroom’s color scheme.

Mirrors:

A mirror can make your room feel larger and brighter. Consider hanging a decorative mirror above your dresser or on an accent wall.

Shelving:

Add floating shelves to display decorative items, books, or personal mementos. This not only adds storage but also allows you to showcase your style.

 4. Add a Cosy Rug

A rug can anchor your bedroom and add warmth underfoot. Choose a rug that fits your space and complements your decor:

Size:

Make sure the rug is large enough to extend beyond the sides of your bed. Ideally, it should be large enough for you to step onto when getting out of bed.

Style:

Select a rug that matches your bedroom’s style, whether it’s a plush rug for a cosy feel, a patterned rug for a bold statement, or a simple, neutral rug for a minimalist look.

 5. Personalise with Accessories

Adding personal touches can make your bedroom feel more inviting and uniquely yours:

Photos:

Display a few framed photos of family, friends, or memorable moments. Place them on your dresser, bedside table, or hang them on the wall.

Plants:

Incorporate a few plants to bring life and freshness to your room. Some plants like the snake plant are great at purifying the air. Choose low-maintenance plants like succulents or air plants if you’re not a green thumb.

Now it’s time to put these ideas into action. Choose a project or two (or all of them!) and spend some time this weekend transforming your bedroom. Small changes can make a big difference, and you'll enjoy the refreshed, cosy, and stylish space you've created. You’ll even sleep better! 

 

Happy styling!
