Since we spend a third of our lives sleeping, we should place high importance on the look and feel of our bedroom. Here are some tips to improve the look and feel of our personal sanctuary.
Bring in neutral colors. Light, neutral colors like creams, grays, taupes and blues provide a tranquil atmosphere.
Add soft lighting. Overhead light can be harsh and concentrated. Add lamps to soften and illuminate the room.
Use window treatments. They add both privacy and a beautiful design element to your room.
Remove outdated bedding. Make sure your mattress and pillows are in good shape.
Plan on replacing you mattress about every eight years and your pillows every year or two.
Remove excess furniture. Pare down your space to the essentials--clutter can disturb rest and be distracting. Above all, reserve the bedroom for rest and relaxation--remove the electronics.
