1. The bedroom is not relaxing
If you enter your bedroom but can’t find a peaceful space, don’t feel relaxed, maybe the wall paint color is the problem.
Blakeney’s suggestion: Choose gentle, pleasant paint colors, colors that bring the fresh air of the beach in the morning such as light blue, peaceful turquoise or quiet coral pink.
Choose gentle, pleasant paint colors to bring a relaxing feeling to the room
2. Bed is not comfortable
Not only a decoration in the center of the room, the bed is also considered the most important component that creates a `comfortable shelter`.
Blakeney’s suggestion: Choose items with neutral colors and made from breathable materials such as silk, cashmere, linen, cotton.
Invest in a good mattress so you can wake up in the morning completely rid of all fatigue and start your day in the best mood.
3. Neighbors can see into your bedroom
Large windows bring natural light as well as ventilation to the room, but they also bring problems if you need privacy, especially if the neighbor’s house is too close to your house.
Blakeney’s suggestion: Use 2-layer curtains: outside hang curtains made from heavy materials, you can choose quilted, dark colors;
Use 2-layer curtains to change flexibly
4. The room looks dull
Do you like minimalist style?
Blakeney’s suggestion: American ferns, lucky roses, betel plants… have the ability to purify the air very well, and chrysanthemums and peace lilies will become lovely highlights of the room.
Green plants and fresh flowers are the key to bringing vitality to the room
5. The bedroom is not child-friendly
Young couples should know that their bedroom should always be ready to welcome little guests, but it doesn’t have to mean sacrificing their favorite style or having to change it as the kids grow up.
Blakeney’s suggestion: Choose a bed that is low to the floor, it’s great, the kids can easily jump up and swoop into your lap.
