Re-decorating can be daunting, but sometimes, you just want your space to reflect who you are and look more like your home rather than an Airbnb – esp if you’re WFH for the foreseeable. 

Seriously, the best way to achieve this is to play around with textures – adding some lights, colours and scents to switch-up the vibe. Here are some suggestions on how to make your bedroom match your aesthetically pleasing vibe.

1. Get (fake) plants

House plants are known for their health benefits, but they are also super pretty and totally Instagrammableq. If you can barely keep yourself alive, then it might be a good idea to buy fake ones so you can still be surrounded by mood-lifting greenery.

2. Scented Candles

Candles are known to affect your mood, so the best way to make your room feel fresh is to turn your home into your very own Bath and Body Works outlet.

3. Hang a mirror

If you’ve got an extra wall that you’re not sure what to do with, hang up a large mirror and call it a day. It creates the illusion of a wider space and you also get the chance to glance at your reflection every chance you get.

4. Layer with decorative pillows

Throw pillows make your bed look less boring, it’s also an easy way to achieve the cosy, cold-outside vibe. Add some character to your bedroom with some throw pillows in cool tones.

5. Get a statement rug

The best thing about getting a rug is the pattern that it creates. You might worry that a large area rug would overwhelm your itty-bitty space, but nope! A big area rug makes the room feel all warm and cosy and it can be a game-changer.

6. Draped Fairy Lights

Fairy lights are classic, simple and cute; they are a good way to fill up some space and make your room cosy and romantic.

7. Knitted Blankets

Knitted blankets are so soft and they add extra personality and style to everything. Add an effortless feel to your bedroom by draping them over your couch and see your space get transformed.
