Use High Quality Bedding
There is no doubt that your bedroom is one of THE most important rooms of your house (or at least it should be), therefore, why compromise on the luxury? Focus on the bed for instance, and make use of high quality bedding material. Subtle changes like adding extra deep fitted sheets or using some extra fluffy, feathered pillows could be a great addition. Make sure the bedding is suitable to the bed and also fits it perfectly. Don’t be afraid to play some textures and colors to create a super relaxing atmosphere.
Play With Cool Colors
Now what could say summer louder than using a nice, subtle and cool color palette for your summer-inspired bedroom makeover? You can opt for using one color in the room monotonously and encapsulate everything in the room to make it appear cozier, OR you could choose some neutral, subtle shades. While you may think this is boring now, you always have the choice to play around with the shades and hues. We suggest adding some definition and try ‘breaking the color’ subtly. So even if you choose a one size fits all color, you still can switch it up between lighter and darker shades.As long as it is pleasing to your eye and you are comfortable with it, just go for it.
As per research, pastels such as blue (and the color in particular) is known to improve sleep quality and lower blood pressure. Try living up to that and using a meaningful, welcoming color.
Add A Wall Mural
You can never go wrong with wall art! If you want to take things up a notch after you have decided the color palette, just add a wall mural or a wallpaper. Wall art can bring life to your room and can make even the dullest rooms look more bright. Therefore, if you are looking for a serious change, selecting a statement wallpaper or a focal wall may be the right way to go. You can opt for a nice scenery or a nature-inspired wallpaper, basically anything that sets your spirit off in the right direction.
Incorporate a Desk
While you may not be willing to study over the summer, it is always a good idea to add a desk to your room. You can do this by placing it to the side of the bed or somewhere else in the room, depending on where your space is available. This provides you with more surface area to write documents and a place to work on projects that require a laptop. Not to mention, it is also terrific for breakfast in bed.
Switch up the Lighting
Lighting can do wonders in any room! Consider adding a nice lamp to the room to improve the room’s brightness and/or in case there is no natural lighting pouring in. You can choose between recessed lights or aesthetic lamps, either way make sure it is appropriate for the habits and routine you have.
Opt for Nice Flooring
Having nice flooring is the second most drastic change you can make, the first being wall art. Choose to layer on by starting with a plain wooden flooring as your canvas and top it with a rug to add some more definition and texture. You can also choose tiles and carpet if you desire.
Create a Relaxing Environment
Lastly, do not miss out on the details! It’s what makes your room stand out. Personalize it by adding some pieces you really admire. Express yourself in the form of decorating and upgrading your room. Even adding something as small as a cushion, or a little chair could be a great way to create a sound environment.
Keep these few tips and tricks in mind to gain some inspiration and while you are decorating your room. Above all, always remember to be patient and you can expect to see a beautiful, summer-inspired bedroom in no time.
