Think about lighting

The type of lighting you use can have a big impact on the appearance of your bedroom. Ditch your worn out light shade for some chic hanging lights or tasteful chandeliers to easily insert some glamour into any room. As for bedside lamps, consider wall lights as a more sophisticated alternative, with the added bonus of being cord free which is a great way to keep the bedroom looking minimal, and minimise the appearance of clutter.

 

Consider your bed

The bed is typically the focal point of any bedroom, meaning you should pay special attention to the frame and bedding used. Investing in a 6ft Divan bed is the perfect way to add some luxury to your room, with simple yet stylish designs, and space to store all your bits and bobs to avoid clutter. Go for bedding in beautiful colours and designs, and pay special attention to layering up your bed with soft throws and lots of cushions. They might be a pain to rearrange each morning, but the results are well worth it!

 

Optimise your space

 Making your bedroom look bigger can be a good way to give it that hotel room feel, and is easier to achieve than you’d think. Placing a large mirror across from the opposite of the room can work wonders, creating the illusion of more space in an instant! The colours you use in your room can also play a factor. Try painting your walls in light shades such as white, grey or beige, and then opt for a darker colour for the ceiling to create the illusion of higher ceilings by drawing the attention upwards.

 

Find some statement pieces

While you don’t want to over clutter your bedroom with too much furniture, it’s definitely worth hunting down some perfect key pieces to bring everything together. A stylish rug, bedside cabinet and chair with a bold colour or pattern are just a few items that can easily give your room a quick update. A beautiful piece of framed artwork should also not go amiss, being the perfect way to add personality and character.

 

Add some florals

Once the majority of the room has been transformed, create some final finishing touches with a selection of beautiful bouquets. Flowers are a lovely way to decorate your home, and give you the chance to get creative in arranging your bouquets just how you like them! Place florals in elegant vases on bedside tables, dressing tables or shelves for a really easy, quick and cost-effective way to spruce up your space.

Decorating the Home with Exclusive Mirrors

I love interior decorating. I enjoy beautifying my home; I love taking a space in my house, and sprinkling some interior charm on it. It feels amazing to have a beautiful home. I am a homebody; I enjoy being at home, so my home has to be all shades of pretty, and very clean.

If I had an unlimited budget, I would be spending a good chunk of it on interior decorating. I believe home is where the heart is, and so my house has to be a home, not just somewhere I crash!

I came across Exclusive Mirrors some weeks ago, and I was blown away with the amazing mirrors they have on their website. For those who have never heard of Exclusive Mirrors, it is an online mirror store based in the UK, and it is the flagship store of a family of furniture websites. Exclusive Mirrors is basically the online home of mirrors.

I was in dire need of a touch of luxury on a wall space in my hallway, and decided to get this stunning wall mirror below.

 

 

This beautiful Aztec Design Champagne Wall Mirror caught my eye instantly. I choose this wall mirror because I knew it would add a touch of luxury to my home, and I knew it would blend in with the existing decor. And I was so right! This wall mirror looks amazing on my hallway wall. The elegant design is bold, modern and very stylish. It also adds a bit of traditional feel to it.

I am super in love with this mirror; it is one of the first things you see when you step inside our home, so we get a lot of complements, which is fab, I know I got good taste.

 

 

So if you are thinking of how to add a touch of luxury to your home, have a look on Exclusive Mirrors website (link above), there are so many wall mirror options, I can guarantee you will find a mirror you would like.

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 –
