Give your bedroom a makeover for spring
With the days getting longer and the weather warming up, it’s time to breathe new life into your bedroom. A spring makeover can transform your sleep sanctuary into a serene oasis, so let’s explore some fresh ideas to elevate your space.
7 bedroom makeover ideas for spring
1. Start with a declutter
Start by decluttering and organising your room before you begin decorating for spring. Place heavy winter clothes and bed linens in storage, and sell or donate any furnishings or decor items that don’t fit with your new look. With a clear palette, you can progress to the next step.
2. Change up the colour scheme
Sydney’s vibrant energy can often be overwhelming, so why not create a calming retreat in your bedroom? Soothing greens, blues, and greys are popular choices for their tranquil qualities. Think soft eucalyptus greens, sky blues, or light greys. A fresh coat of paint will dramatically change the feel of a room. Remember to choose a colour that complements your existing furniture and personal style.
3. Embrace natural sheet textures
It’s time to swap out those heavy winter linens as the weather warms up. Bamboo bed sheets are an excellent choice for spring. They’re soft, breathable, and naturally hypoallergenic. The earthy tones of bamboo also lend a natural, calming vibe to your bedroom. Pick up a set from Australian-owned Bamboo Sheets Australia.
A more popular alternative is linen sheets, which offer the same benefits. Treat yourself to a set from I Love Linen, available in a range of colours and patterns.
4. Show your stripes
Speaking of patterns, stripes are timeless and add a touch of sophistication to any room. Choose between bold black and white stripes, subtle grey and white, or a softer look with pastel stripes or stripes with a subtle sheen. You can incorporate this trend in several ways:
- Sheet sets (as mentioned).
- These perfect subtle white/light grey striped curtains from Ikea.
- Pastel striped cushions from Adairs.
- Through the extensive striped wallpaper range from Natty and Polly.
5. Bring the outdoors in with plants
Why not bring a touch of the outdoors inside through house plants? Low-maintenance indoor plants like snake plants, peace lilies, or succulents can add life and freshness to your bedroom. Not only do they look great, but they also improve air quality.
Nothing says spring quite like florals, so why not pick yourself up a fresh bouquet from Lush Flower Co while you’re at it? They’ll immediately brighten and freshen up your room. If you don’t have a green thumb, you can get the same effect through the affordable range of artificial plants and flowers from Kmart.
6. Upgrade your mattress
A good night’s sleep is essential for well-being, and your mattress plays a crucial role. If your mattress is over seven years old, it might be time for an upgrade. A new mattress can significantly improve your sleep quality and make a noticeable difference in how you feel during the day. You can’t go wrong with Emma, Australia’s most awarded mattress brand.
7. Add a touch of personal style
A bedroom should reflect your personality, so incorporate unique pieces that tell your story. A vintage light fixture, a collection of framed photos or a handmade quilt can add warmth and character to your space. Don’t be afraid to mix and match styles to create a space that is truly yours.
Remember, a spring bedroom makeover doesn’t have to be expensive, as small changes can make a significant impact.
