Find The Focal Point

Start by finding a focal point in your room. If you want your bed to be the focus, put your efforts into beautifying it.  Start by getting some new bedsheets, pillowcases, cushions, and blankets to make it colourful and quirky. Your bed should look inviting and feel comfortable for you to get the sleep that you deserve.

DIY Headboard Design

You can do a lot with the headboard of your bed. Get some tools and peel off the existing cover, if any. Add some foam and a new cover. If you don’t want a pillowy cover, work directly on the wooden surface. Grab some paints and get your hands dirty! You could experiment with a variety of designs. A popular design is getting colourful handprints of all the family members on the headboard. This is a great way to make your bedroom look unique and exciting.

Storage Under The Bed

There is almost no escaping that looming pile of clothes, bags and other items stashed in every available space in the bedroom unless you are very organized. An excellent solution for those who are too lazy to clean up every day (or simply don’t have the time), is to make use of the space under the bed. Make sure that you conceal the storage with some DIY awesomeness. All you have to do is hang some ribbons and patchwork made from old clothes.

Transform The Dresser

Dressers are commonly found in bedrooms, but most of them look dull. If you have a plain dresser in your room, it’s time to get artsy. Give it a fresh coat of paint.  Adding some colour and texture to your old piece of furniture can give it a new identity. If you have white walls in your room, a colourful dresser might just be what you need to add a dash of colour without having to paint the walls.

All you need is a paintbrush and some beautiful shades to start creating some magic.

DIY Handmade Art

Handmade art is a huge trend these days. Rather than buying them at elevated prices, make some artwork yourself. Insert a string of lights in it and make it a beautiful lamp for the bedroom.  Get ice-cream sticks and other craft materials to make some photo-frames of your own. Little touches of handmade art in your bedroom can add a lot of character that will make you want to show off your space to everyone.

Furniture Rearrangement

Even if you aren’t the creative type, you can still give your bedroom the makeover it needs. Try rearranging the furniture. Push the bed from one corner to the opposite edge. Get an armchair next to the window and create a cosy reading nook. Discard a chunky dresser that takes up too much space. Replace it with a mobile cart, that’s small and compact. Playing around with the furniture arrangement can instantly refresh your room.

Declutter

Last but not least, declutter. Take a long, hard look at your belongings and discard items that you don’t use. Everything from your furniture to your clothes should be looked at. We tend to hold on to things that have sentimental values.  So be brutal and choose as few items as possible that have sentimental values. The rest of the items in your home should have a purpose and be in excellent condition. The neater and more organized a room is, the prettier it will look.
