Steer clear of clutter
Designing a space that encourages rest means keeping a clutter-free bedroom, which will improve your sleep hygiene and help you drift off more easily. To reduce visual clutter, pack your clothing away in cupboards and drawers, hang bags and belts on hooks, and return books, toys, mugs and other belongings to the rooms they came from.

Have a designated area for decorative pillows
A few pillows and cushions can help to create a cosy bedroom, however, when you’re getting ready to go to bed, ensure you have a place to store those you won't need through the night. This could be in a large basket in the corner of your room or on a bench or ottoman at the foot of your bed – anywhere that will help you resist the temptation to toss them onto the floor when you're tired.

Use a catch-all tray to collect trinkets
Keep your bedside tables organised with a stylish catch-all to hold smaller items such as jewellery, watches, keys and loose change. Not only will it keep your items safe, but it will also make cleaning much easier and add a personalised touch to your bedside. Look for a piece that will add interest and double as decor, such as an earthy ceramic dish or a handblown glass bowl.

Choose bedside tables with storage
Furniture that offers built-in storage can help to maximise space and improve the functionality of your bedroom. A bedside table with a drawer allows you to keep all the essentials on hand while storing them out of sight, such as your eye mask, tissues, face cream and tech accessories like your phone and charger. A larger lower shelf is the perfect spot to keep books and magazines within easy reach.
Add a bed skirt to hide your bed frame
A bed skirt is an elegant and effective way to tie your bedroom scheme together, helping to achieve a clean and streamlined look that lends classic style while disguising your bed frame and preventing dust from collecting under your bed. Create a calming bed space with a pure linen bed skirt in a neutral hue that complements your bedding, ensuring visual impact from the base up.
