How To Create A Bedroom Oasis

How To Create A Bedroom Oasis

 

Typically speaking our bedroom should be the most comfortable room in our homes. Nothing feels better than, at the end of a busy day, getting to relax in our comfortable, cozy bedroom.

Here are a few ideas to help make your bedroom a comfy, cozy oasis:

 

Keep It Dark

Create the perfect mood to rest and slumber by painting your walls in a dark colour.

 

Warm Up Your Floors

Area rugs are a great way to introduce colour, texture, and warmth in your bedroom. Try layering multiple area rugs for added drama and warmth underfoot.

 

Pillow Talk

Layering neutral pillows and throws helps make your bed a place you want to snuggle into.

Bed Time

A headboard done up in warm natural wood or upholstered in a neutral fabric adds warmth and texture.

 

Tone Down The Lights

 

Chose soft lighting, or even better, use a dimmer to create the mood you want to achieve.
It seems like a small thing, but think about it, we spend a third of each day in our bedrooms.
So it’s definitely worth the time and effort to create the perfect oasis to start and end each day.

Ways to clean your furniture

Since we have been told by the government and health care professionals to stay home as much as possible, in order to flatten the curve, we all have extra time to clean our furniture.
After all, while it is easy to be overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, and uncertainty , it’s important to remember :

OUR HOMES ARE ONE THING WE HAVE CONTROL OVER

Have a plan, remember you don’t have to clean all your furniture in one day. Consider taking on one room per day. This will give you the confidence that this is something you can take on during this period of chaos; and in doing so you’ll have clean furniture.
Here are some cleaning tips:

Wood furniture

  • Never use glass cleaners, detergents, liquids or waxes on wood furniture.
  • Clean with water and mild soap using a soft cloth followed by a dry cloth.
  • Remove all spills immediately.
  • Never place your furniture in direct sunlight for long periods of time .

Fabric

On upholstery furniture, remove seat and back cushions and vacuum regularly to remove dust particles.
Vacuum upholstered headboards as well.

Leather

Use a slightly dampened soft cloth or leather cleaner.
Use a leather conditioner every three months to keep leather supple and prevent it from drying out.

Glass

Use mild detergent and water followed by a glass cleaner with a micro fiber cloth.

Get ready to rid your home of dust with a HEALTHY spring cleaning!

Fitting Furniture

Before you buy furniture you always have make sure it’s going to fit your space, and that you’ll be able to get it through the house. For example, if you are buying a sofa for your living room, make sure to measure your front door of the house so you can determine if the sofa will fit through the door. You also should measure the space between any walls and hallways you’ll be passing through, before going to your living room, so you won’t have any unexpected problems. Lastly, measure the room you’re furnishing from wall to wall so you can get an accurate estimation of what you can put where. For Example, in a family or living room, the TV and sofa need to be a calculated distance apart in order to get the maximum quality of use. If you measure you’re space before hand, you will know what size sofa to get, how big of a TV the room can handle and how you want to everything to be placed.

For more information on how to measure furniture to fit your home, check out our measuring guide here.

Spring cleaning

While nations are encouraging social distancing and self isolation, it’s easy for us to let things get a little crazy around the house.
A great way to feel productive and pass the time is by cleaning your home and preparing for the new Spring season.
One way too look at Spring cleaning is that you are basically refreshing your space. One of the most tedious processes this time of year is getting rid of clutter that you don’t need. Spring is the time to throw out old furniture and replace it with something beautiful and new; like an area rug, a new coffee table, or a console table.
Fresh flowers are an excellent way to add colour and freshness to any room. Try switching out the covers on your throw pillows, and introducing pastels colors for a playful approach, or millennial pink for a feminine touch.
Another option is to change your accent wall colour – maybe use wallpaper with interesting floral print.
A clean house is important for the health and well-being of your entire family. Like the saying says, a clean home is a healthy home.
