Pillows, Headboards, and Candles for a Cosy Bedroom
This article presents suggestions to readers that may help them design a bedroom that is cosy and relaxing enough to lull them to sleep.
A spacious bedroom and soothing lullabies are no guarantee that you can enjoy a good night’s sleep every time. Although having padded bed headboards to keep your favourite pillow from falling to the floor can help, you will ultimately need a relaxing ambiance in the room so you can dose off quicker. Speaking of which, here are some ways that you can do just that:
1. Splurge on plush cushions and covers. Lying on plush beddings or comforters can actually encourage your body to dose off. Thus, when buying stuff for the slumber chamber, invest in such relaxing items and you can be surprised how feeling something soft can make your mind stop worrying about anything else but sleeping. Nevertheless, such kinds of bedroom necessities can be pricey so make sure to look around for discounted options and clearance sales!
2. Fill the room with scent. Another secret to making you fall asleep at night is having relaxing fragrances in the slumber chamber as you are about to hit the sack. And when you are wondering what sort of smell will make you feel calm, surveys seem to suggest that lavender is a fine choice. Now, to have such an aroma in the bedroom, think about putting lavender-scented candles on top of headboards that are designed with a small shelf.
3. Have a shaggy rug underneath the bed. Give your feet a well-deserved massage before you go catch some zzz’s by putting a soft sheepskin rug or carpet on the floor. However, despite such décor making you feel more relaxed, make sure to have them regularly cleaned up so they will not end up collecting dust and dirt—something that may affect the air quality in your bedroom later on if left unattended.
4. Have soft light around. To get you into the mood for sleep, it actually helps having a dimmer switch at your disposal or putting a table lamp above headboards for beds. Not only will these provide sufficient illumination in the room to let you do about some minor things at night, the softness of their light can help tell the body to relax—a prelude to a refreshing slumber.
Indeed, all these suggestions can help you transform the slumber chamber into a personal paradise where you can forget about your stressful day and look forward to a relaxing rest. And when that happens on a regular basis, you can expect to be in a better mood compared to days when you barely had enough sleep.
