It’s probably safe to say that your bedroom is the most important room in your home. After all, it’s where you get to unwind after a hard day at work and catch up on your beauty sleep. And if your bedroom isn’t already the restorative and tranquil oasis that it’s meant to be, here are some easy ways to spruce it up!
#1 Cut the clutter

Decluttering is the first order of business when it comes to a room makeover. That’s because reducing visual noise helps to foster mental clarity. So, channel your inner Marie Kondo and sort through all the belongings that you’ve accumulated over the years! Toss or donate items that no longer hold any value to you and keep them organised and stowed away in your storage. That way, you’ll have a lot more space for your most-used items.
#2 Decorate with intention

When it comes to your bedside table, be sure to keep just the essentials within reach and leave just enough space for your phone and nightcap. Enliven your bedroom with feel-good items like your favourite candle, the book you’re currently reading, or even framed pictures of your loved ones.
#3 Invest in your bedding

Given that your bed is where you’ll spend a third of your life (snoozing away), it makes complete sense to invest in a luxurious set-up. We’re talking a supportive mattress, a sturdy bed frame, soft bedding, and plush pillows. To really create a cocoon of comfort, consider AKEMI’s Sleep Essentials Lofty Microfil Quilt, which is filled with ultra-fine fibres that make it extra soft and snug. This quilt helps to keep allergens and dust mites at bay and is suitable for those who are allergic to natural fillers like down.

To extend the lifespan and quality of your mattress, simply add AKEMI’s Sleep Essentials Fitted Mattress Protector on top of it. Apart from shielding your mattress from allergens and stains, it also offers added comfort — thanks to the super soft fillers! The quilted design traps fibre fillings and keeps them in place, ensuring an even distribution.

#4 Make it a sacred space

With the concept of working from home becoming commonplace, the line between work and personal life has blurred considerably, making it important to set boundaries. Take special care to avoid working in your bedroom, so that it remains a space that you associate with rest and relaxation.
Of course, if your work desk happens to be in your bedroom, you can set rules like abstaining from work-related tasks while in bed. Better yet, turn your bedroom into a device-free zone where you partake in calming rituals like meditation, yoga, or reading.
