How to Create a Relaxing Bedroom
Neat and Clean
For some people, a relaxing bedroom comes from neat and clean surroundings so the first thing to do is by putting everything in a place. Declutter and organizing is the key:
- If you have a small bedroom, choose a bed frame that has storage underneath.
- Use side tables or floating shelves for smaller items.
- Instead of buying a TV stand, you may want to hang or mount it on the wall.
Lighting Play
It’s a common secret that lighting plays a big role in a bedroom because it will affect the quality of your sleep. As you may have known that it’s better to sleep in a dark bedroom instead of the bright one. It’s because that way, both your eyes and brain will rest as well by not receiving any single light.
What you can do:
- Create a dark ceiling with dark paint.
- Installing blackout curtains or blinds.
- Installing dim lighting (sleep lamp or string lights).
