We all like a night in a luxury hotel room as a little treat, and it can often do us some good, allow us to sleep better and get much needed rest. But what’s to say your own bedroom can’t be its own kind of luxury retreat?
Your bedroom should also reflect your personality and have the ability to make you feel instantly at ease. If your bedroom isn’t currently doing these things, and is not how you envision your dream bedroom to look, it’s time to make some changes.
Your luxury bedroom is within reach, and you shouldn’t forget that. So, stop putting off making the kinds of changes that could truly transform your bedroom and how you use it. Here are some of the things to consider.
Clear the Clutter
First of all, you should make an effort to clear out the clutter in your bedroom. A luxurious bedroom is not one filled with junk and clutter. Go check out my KonMari vlogs if you want to learn how to get rid of clutter. Konmari allows you to develop a different perspective on the belongings you keep in your home. It has altered our shopping habits (which have saved us money) and made our life far simpler. Make sure surfaces aren’t covered in items, and all clothes and beauty products have a home. Simply clearing your room of unwanted and unnecessary items will go a long way in allowing your room to feel more tranquil and luxury.
Chose a luxury colour scheme
This can go one of 2 ways. Often when you think of luxury hotel bedroom colour schemes, they are crisp, light and airy or dark and decadent. Which type of scheme you go for depends on your personal taste and the space you have to decorate. Sometimes the bedroom is the perfect room to take a bolder colour scheme like these ideas on Ideal Homes. Whatever colour scheme you go with, look to add layers and textures to the room with soft furnishings.
Get the Right Bed
For some, the height of luxury may be a wing back bed or super soft feather bedding, or maybe you’ve always wanted a TV bed, and a king size if possible! Whatever your taste, look for that perfect bed to really elevate the look and feel of your room. And be willing to pay a little more for a quality bed and good mattress. If you think about it, you will often spend more time in your bed than you will sat on your sofa, so invest in a quality piece that will last you.

Light it Properly
How you choose to light a room can have a huge impact on its overall atmosphere. Having a variety of lighting options can really help to make the space feel more inviting. Your bedroom should have a strong source of natural light, so work on the window area and make the most of it. Then you should have at least two sources of artificial light in the room. There will be a main overhead light in the room, as well as something like a lamp or small lights on the bedside tables. Getting the lighting right will make a real difference.
You deserve a bedroom that does everything you want it to, so don’t settle for second best any longer.
