Six bedroom accessories to transform your space
Bedroom accessories come in all shapes and sizes and can instantly transform a room from drab to fab. From indoor plants to gorgeous fairy lights to bright and colourful artwork – we’ve rounded up six gorgeous accessories to inject new life into your home.
Layer from the ground up.
If your bedroom has wooden floorboards, adding a large rug can instantly make your bedroom seem more homely. Not only does a rug provide nice padding for your feet when you’re wandering around the house, but it can provide some extra warmth in the colder months too. Opt for shaggier styles that are soft to touch if you’re after texture – or planning to sit and read your book.
Add in some greenery.
Pops of greenery bring a space to life. Style plants to your colour theme through terracotta pots or woven baskets, add them to shelving or position them where they catch the eye. Not much of a green thumb? Read this guide to choosing easy-to-care-for plants. You can thank us later!
Rearrange your space and add in small details.
Don’t discount moving your current furniture around to create a fresh new feel. If you have a window, place your desk underneath for natural light. Switch up the placement of your bed or move your bookcase to the opposite side of the room. Just the addition of a few gold accents or fairy lights can bring the old and the new together in a money-friendly way.
Don’t be afraid of artwork!
Art can be a fun way of expressing yourself and it doesn’t need to be expensive. Framed prints like these ones from RedBubble allow you to jump into the world of colour without commitment (also great if you are renting!). If you are artsy, D-I-Y your own painting with a canvas and some acrylics. This is also a great way to involve your family or your friends as part of your home.
Change up your bed linen.
If you’ve added new colours to your room, consider changing the colour of your sheets to tie everything in together. The best part is sheets can be interchanged depending on the season, so you can play with new colours and styles without the commitment.
Cushions are not only for comfort.
Cushions are easily interchangeable and can be used on everything from beds to chairs to couches. If you like to mix and match, opt for a style that has a contrasting reverse print for endless style options.
