Your bedroom can all too easily become a dumping ground for washing, unfinished work, and things just looking for a home. If you’re aiming for a calmer evening, you could try a few feng shui ideas as decorating prompts, adjusting furniture placement as needed.
Start with a comfortable bed position
Try positioning your headboard against a solid wall, leaving enough room to get in and out comfortably. In feng shui, this arrangement is considered supportive.
Don’t force symmetry; for example, if matching bedside tables would block a doorway, two small shelves might be better.
Give distractions a home for the night
Clear your bedside surface of receipts, chargers and tomorrow’s paperwork. If you work here, close the laptop and put it away when you’ve finished.
Custom Wardrobe doors can form part of a storage refresh if your existing cupboards basically work well. Plain fronts on Custom Wardrobe doors, are worth considering if you’d prefer storage that blends into the room. And don’t forget to sort what’s inside – those new doors should cover organisation, not chaos!
Pay attention to light and comfort
Advice on sleeping better generally recommends keeping your bedroom dark, quiet and cool. Check for streetlight spilling through curtains, unnecessary screen displays and bedding that leaves you feeling a little too warm.
Choose colours and textures that you genuinely find restful, rather than following a rigid palette. If a mirror’s reflections bother you, just move it.
Try the free changes first and decide what feels better. As with most interior design, this is a journey.
