3 Elements to Styling a Bed
Styling a great look is all about layering, so here are a few tips to consider when creating a stylish bedroom look giving you a can’t wait to jump in feeling.
Sheets Set the Tone
The first thing is to create a base that prioritizes comfort. This is where your body makes its first contact with your bed, so give it a welcoming and comfortable feeling. Let’s start with a crisp, soft set of sheets with an element of design that makes you happy. Decide what type of sheets are best for you. Whether you love the cooling effects of a linen blend, the soft feeling of bamboo, luxurious sateen, or my favorite…100% crisp cotton, it all starts here.
Pillows, Shams, and More Pillows
When it comes to pillows, choose sleeping pillows that are as durable as they are comfortable. The offering of many shapes and styles are endless. Pick what’s best for your sleeping pleasure. Use the two sleeping pillows as the base and add two shams on top to coordinate a pleasing look and feel. Top off with a few decorative pillows to finish off the look.
Layers of Comfort
Next, add a quilt or a duvet cover or you could add both. If you are wanting to pile on the style, adding both a quilt and duvet cover will do just that. Make sure the coverings create a comfortable setting for a variety of climates and body temperatures. One of my favorite coverings is an ultra-thin European white down quilted comforter. It adds warmth to the bed without being so heavy. The final layer is a throw. This is another opportunity to add texture, tone, luxe, color and dimension. Use your imagination to complete the overall look.
