Our home should be that single place on the planet that we can run to and feel safe. However, inside our home should be our personal sanctuary. Our bedroom. It must be a place where we can be ourselves, relax, and unwind.

Do you want to make your bedroom the perfect place to rest and achieve that calm? Then allow us to share with you our top relaxing bedroom decoration ideas to turn your room into a cozy piece of heaven.

A Spacious Bed

The first tip that we’re going to share with you is to get a spacious bed. It doesn’t matter if your small room will only have a limited floor space after squeezing your bed in there, but don’t sacrifice getting a wide and relaxing bed just so you can fit other pieces of furniture inside. Your bed is the heart of your room.

Carpets and Rugs

Speaking of floor space, even your floor can be a comfortable place to sink into with carpets and rugs. You can get a wide cozy piece in a warm color, or you can also experiment by layering different carpets and rugs on top of each other. Just make sure that they share the same color palette as your bedroom.

Pillows

Everyone deserves to sleep in a pool of fluffy pillows, but pillows should not be restricted to your bed. You can also add floor pillows that you can relax in. It’s also a perfect substitute for a couch or a chair if you have limited space.

Take this opportunity to add some interest and pattern to your room as well, as long as you remember to choose your colors carefully.

Pouf

Looking for an alternative to floor pillows? Here’s a stylish piece: a pouf. What’s more is that it is multifunctional as well. It can serve as a chair, a footrest, or even as a makeshift surface if needed.

The Beddings

Let’s go back to your bed, now that we have a canvas to work on. Your bedding, after all, will be the main focal point of your room’s design, and by extension, your personality. Aside from carefully choosing the look of your beddings, though, put more priority to the feel of your pieces. They should feel soft and smooth to your skin and comfortable to sleep in. Take into consideration their thickness and the temperature of your room as well.

Here’s a pro tip: You can also layer a textured blanket on top of your beddings to add some interest and of course, added coziness.

Soft Lighting

Bright white lights should be reserved for other rooms in the house. Bedrooms should have soft lighting to create a calming and relaxing ambiance. If you really need some bright lighting for reading, then opt for a focused lighting fixture like a table lamp.

Curtains

In relation to the previous bedroom decoration tip, you should also get the curtains that best fit your sleeping preferences. For instance, do you love sleeping in complete darkness? Then blackout curtains are a must. Do you enjoy looking at the pale light of the moon relaxing as you fall asleep, and more so, the stream of sunshine to wake you up every morning? Then lace curtains will be a perfect match.

A Self-Love Area

Finally, you should consider adding a special self-love area in your room. It depends on your personality. Some people love to put their favorite book and a candle on their nightstand. Others have a yoga mat and an incense burner in a corner of their room. We even have a friend that has a personal breakfast station with her favorite mugs, coffee maker, and pods. Can you imagine the smell of her room every morning? It must be relaxing.

Conclusion

To sum up, here are the bedroom decoration tips that we have shared with you:

• Focus on your bed. It should be in the proper size, topped with a comfortable mattress, pillows, and beddings.
• Don’t leave your floor bare. Fill it with carpets, rugs, and floor pillows.
