How to Make Your Bedroom as Cozy as a Kitten

We are in the full throes of winter and if you are anything like me, you either want to stay in bed or rush back to bed with a hot cup of tea and a book. The bedroom is the most personal space in any home but it is often ignored. Most people choose to focus on the spaces where the whole family and guests gather, but this year, put yourself first with a bedroom you adore. It starts with creating the right ambience and furnishing the space with the perfect bedroom furniture.

Dim the lights and quiet your senses
Bright lighting stimulates our mind and that is the last thing you want at the end of the day. Invest in a bedside lamp with a low-watt bulb. Even better, get some candles they are classy and cozy. Add a candle to a rustic candle sconce such as this one to accent your room.

We need extra layers in the winter and the same goes for rugs
A bedside rug is absolutely necessary, not only for your feet but for the contrast it adds to your room. Opting for a rug with contrasting patterns and textures can add that extra pizazz to your bedroom. Not to mention, if you have noisy downstairs neighbors a rug can serve as a barrier for noise.

Cuddle up with a book in your reading nook
A lot of people like to read before they go to sleep as it helps them relax their busy minds. While many people like to read in bed, other people like to sit up and read in a quiet corner. A big, comfortable chair and a bookcase that holds your favorite books is just what the doctor ordered. Throw a cozy fleece blanket over the back of the chair for a little extra flair and keeping warm on chilly nights

Last but not least, the centrepiece of the bedroom the bed!
f you want your bedroom to be a haven, you must choose the right bedroom furniture and mattress. It is the most personal and most important piece of furniture in your home. Everyone needs a good sleep and to wake up in a room that invokes positive energy. Pile on the decorative pillows for some added coziness!
