Find out how to enter your bedroom, touch the crisp bed linen, and take yourself back to the gorgeous hotel you recently stayed at. Why not restyle your bedroom and create a boutique hotel bedroom vibe?
Imagine your favourite hotel; mine is the El Fenn (above) in Marrakech, where I stayed early last year. Each bedroom was a sensory delight and a colour lover's dream. Have a read of my blog, ‘A colourful trip to Marrakech,’ for the full debrief of my amazing interior retreat.
Create your very own sanctuary, a place to relax and unwind. Reduce the clutter and introduce some gorgeous new home accessories. Try giving your furniture an update by recovering or repainting a few simple tweaks to make you feel like you're back in that hotel room.
7 design tips to inspire you:
New bed linen - Crisp cotton bed sheets; the bed linen in the image below is classic white cotton with a stylish, colourful trim by Designers Guild.
2. Introduce a new colour scheme in bedding and soft furnishings - Adding shades of blue, green and yellow to bring in more relaxing colours. Below are a few pieces from Lola Swift’s range of sheepskin products to add the ultimate comfort to your bed.
3. Make your headboard the main feature and recover it - If your headboard looks a bit tired, why don’t you find a new statement fabric and recover it? For inspiration, look at our guide on Choosing the Best Fabric for Furniture.
4. A new room scent - Treat yourself to a new restful essential oil to add to a diffuser. Our favourite is from Neom - Perfect Night's Sleep Essential Oil Blend, lavender, sweet basil and jasmine.
5. Plants and flowers - Find a little vase and fill it with flowers from the garden. For more information on the benefits of bringing plants into your bedroom, read our previous blog post, ‘The positive benefits of bringing plants into your bedroom’.
6. Treat yourself to a new personalised notebook by your bed for those middle-of-the-night thoughts - Try our favourite stationery brand, Papier, for some gorgeous designs.
7. An occasion chair could be the perfect final addition to bringing the hotel vibe to your bedroom. A design statement in a beautiful colour and fabric. This sumptuous velvet Ottoman is by Graham and Green, who never fail to deliver on style, quality and colour
