Day 11: Upgrade Your Bedding to Create an Elevated and Cozy Bedroom

Lately I feel like bedroom content is all the rage… we see influencers constantly changing up their bedding and or showing us their spaces and I don’t know about you but I’m sold! Feeling like you're at a luxury hotel at home? Yeah, I'll take that. In fact, for day 11 of "31 Days of Loving Our Homes" our resolution is just that... to upgrade your bedding to create an elevated and cozy bedroom. 

 

The best part? You don't necessarily have to buy anything new in order to make your bed feel more elevated. The key to achieving this look is to focus on layering. As you can see in the images above, there are multiple layers of throw pillows as well as multiple layers of comforters/blankets. Layering lends to the elevated feel because it creates more dimension within your space. As opposed to the bed looking flat, it will now appear more thoughtfully styled. 

If you did want to purchase some new pieces, here are some things to focus on while shopping: 

1. When purchasing throw pillows, focus on selecting varying sizes of throw pillows. 

2. Make sure to incorporate different textures... meaning, don't purchase everything in the same material! Having some contrasting textures actually adds to the elevated feel. 

3. Look for a lighter throw blanket or quilt to style at the foot of the bed. 

4. Select complementing colors... Having multiple colors is great but just make sure they work well together!
