Personalising the Bedroom

Bed Makeover

My bedroom is my sanctuary. It is where I go to relax and sleep, so I like to keep it airy, nice, clean, and organised. I also like to see my bedroom tastefully decorated. It helps me sleep better.

I have previously written about my good night sleep essentials, and the importance of having a quality mattress and bedding. However, I have also discovered the benefits of having a good headboard. Having a bed headboard does not only add style and character to your bedroom, but it also protects your head and your precious belongings from going behind the bed.

If you are anything like me, then you will have things you do leave under your pillow on some days, when you cannot be bothered to keep them in the appropriate places. Things like Books, Socks, Phones, iPads, even Kindles when I fall asleep reading. Those sort of things find themselves under my pillow on some days, but since I got my headboard, I no longer have to worry about them falling behind the bed, and the hassle of getting them out.

Apart from headboards protecting our belongings, they make sleep personal, for me anyways. There is something about having a headboard, that adds a bit more coziness to the room. Since I bought my first headboard, I can’t imagine having a bed without one now. All beds in my house have a headboard, but I am looking at changing 1 or 2, as they have gone wonky, thanks to my darling son bouncing on and off them constantly.

Here are some I am currently loving at the moment –

Garden & Home Update

Some weeks ago, I wrote about how our garden is yet to be done, if you missed that post, click here. Well, we are working on it now, so crossing my fingers and toes, by next summer, our garden should be summer-ready. Yayyy, bring on summer 2016, I really can’t wait.

Garden aside, there is still a lot of home improvements to be done. When we moved into this house 2 years ago, it looked like we had more than enough space compared to our previous flat, but as soon as Naomi and Nathan came along, we ran out of space almost immediately. They came and took over our lives and closets. There is no space for anything else now.

At the moment, we need a wall to wall wardrobe to house all the many clothes, shoes, bags and other accessories we have as our current long-suffering wardrobe is struggling to keep up with us. However, we currently have no space for a wall to wall wardrobe in our home. We will have to wait until the kids grow out of their cot beds and into loft beds, then we will have some more space. I am really looking forward to that.

While doing some online shopping (my next best thing after blogging). I came across the bedroom furniture leading brand – Room to Grow and I was so impressed with the room furnitures, loft beds and bedroom accessories on offer. Room to Grow offer a great selection of children’s loft beds, which are great for maximizing small spaces, as they can be transformed easily into a work area, a cosy sitting area or even a storage area. As we are out of space already, the loft beds will be a life saver soon.

Here are three of my favourites bedroom looks from Room to Grow:

Parisot Uber Bed

Pink Bedroom

I love the touch of pink here. This is so girly and pretty. Perfect for a little girl.

Kids Avenue – High Tek Bed

I love the colour combination here. This is so modern and sophisticated. Love it.

Solitare Ultimate Study Bed

Solitare Loft Bed

I love the white and red going on here. Minimal and chic.

I am looking forward to having some space back. I have a lot of designs in my head already.

What do you think of these designs?  How do you maximise your home space with kids? Sound off in the comment section pls.

Thanks for reading.
