Re-Upholster Your Bedhead
The quickest and easiest way of injecting a new colour or pattern into your bedroom without getting out a paint brush or wallpapering table, is by re-upholstering your bedhead. This large block of colour or pattern will have a big impact on the room scheme, particularly if your bed is the centrepiece of the space. Find a stand-out fabric that will not only refresh the look, but will also offer a comfortable texture to rest against. Then, if you’re DIY savvy, have a go at recovering it yourself with a staple gun, or enlist a professional to do it for you.
Is it time to invest in your dream bed? Always thought a custom-built bed is beyond your budget? Well, think again. Build your dream bed bit by bit from the base to the bedhead. Pull out a fabric tone and wood colour to complement your scheme and don’t forget to explore the different built-in storage options to clear the clutter.

Liven Up Your Walls
Another simple, yet effective way of boosting your bedroom’s style credentials without decorating, is by bringing the walls to life with interesting accessories. Take inspiration from the world traveller trend that’s big right now and display those quirky holiday souvenirs you’ve had hidden away. From ethnic textiles to intricate rugs, anything that’s light enough to be hung on the wall will make a fabulous focal point behind the bed, as well as adding warmth with cosy textures. You could then expand on this organic vibe by adding greenery, either at your bedside tables, or in hanging planters.
Look out for attention-grabbing artwork. Hunt out vibrant prints that display big blocks of colour, such as coastal scenes, poolside views or bright beachy numbers, and instantly ignite your lacklustre walls.

Re-Boot Your Bedding
Treat your bed to a stylish makeover with beautiful bedding that will make you want to dive right in. Take time and do your research so you can identify the texture, quality and colour that will suit you and your space. If you choose to keep the bedding pale and simple, you can easily layer it with rich textures and warm tones through throws and cushions to create more of a focus. While dark, moody bed linen, such as rich velvet, won’t need so much layering and will create a sophisticated look in any setting.
Don’t just save layering for the bed, introduce it in other areas.Adding textures to a bedroom is so much more than displaying cushions and throws. You can introduce different layers of interest through the accessories, such as leather drawer handles, woven baskets, marble vases or metallic lamps.

Introduce a New Statement Piece
Boutique hotels always hit the style mark when it comes to gorgeous-looking bedrooms, so take some style tips from these chic spaces and introduce a decadent addition in the form of an elegant ottoman, a charming storage chest, or maybe a shapely armchair. The key is to pick a statement-making piece that will draw focus as well as add a practical element to your bedroom.
Make the most of dual-purpose pieces. Adding a blanket box at the end of your bed will provide extra storage as well as a handy perch, while trundle drawers that slide underneath the bed can be used to store an extra mattress and bedding.
