We all want our bedroom to be a luxurious room, draped in rich fabrics and a place for romance but we tend to forget that the bedroom is also a place for sleeping!! So when you are thinking about re-decorating your bedrooms remember to think about your rest, as a good night’s sleep is crucial to good health.
First things first, think about your bed; you’ve bought the stylish wrought iron bed frame, the 100% handmade silk duvet, the goose down duvet, the cushions but wait… you’ve forgotten about the mattress! Easily done, but what good is a bed frame without a mattress, when purchasing the frame make sure you can fit a suitable mattress in it, and when buying a mattress think about your sleep. For those sleeping alone a single memory foam mattress is ideal but for those looking for more room you might want to try a double or a king!!
When trying to get a good night’s sleep you need to try and shut out the rest of the world and that can mean the sun (for those light nights in summer) window film is typically associated with offices but if you are finding your sleep disturbed try adding Guardian window film to your décor shopping list, it certainly isn’t the first thing you think of when decorating a room but it can help you sleep through the rising morning sun. While you are shutting out the outside you might want to think about shutting out the rest of the house!! If like me you like a sleep in on a Sunday morning but have small children running around then thick bespoke oak doors in your home can help create quiet and idyllic spots of solitude in a hectic home.
So remember while it is good to think luxuriously when decorating a bedroom a little extra thought can help you sleep soundly too.
