Highlights

Add Texture00:00:11

Layer textures on your bed with blankets, pillows, and different materials like linen or faux fur to add visual interest.

Change Your Sheets00:01:01

Upgrade your sheets for a more luxurious feel. The sponsor, Brooklinen, offers high-quality bedding at a lower price point with 20% off when you spend $100.

Play with Asymmetry00:02:25

Incorporate asymmetry by balancing visual weight on both sides of the room using different nightstands or lighting arrangements for a more dynamic space.

Invest in Nightstands00:05:15

Nightstands are functional and add elegance. If space is limited, use slim nightstands or wall shelves for storage.

Add a Rug00:06:42

A rug adds softness, texture, and grounds the space. It creates a barrier between hard floors and the bed.

Add Task Lighting00:07:28

Incorporate task lighting with table lamps, floor lamps, wall sconces, or pendant lights, choosing options based on your needs and renovation possibilities.

Add Seating00:11:02

If space allows, add a bench or ottoman for seating, storage, and to introduce color and texture.

Add Storage00:11:50

Incorporate storage solutions like benches, ottomans, or under-bed storage to keep clothing and items organized.

Add a Mirror00:12:50

Add a full-length mirror to check outfits and open up the space or use a wall mirror, which is a great option too.

Stick to Warm Light00:13:37

Use warm light in the bedroom to signal to your body that it is time for rest and sleep, avoiding cool or blue light.
