Winter is well and truly on us people. And if you think about it, even though the cold weather means cozying up under a blanket, it can also make your bedroom feel like an icebox! So if you want to find the best ways to keep warm this winter – without breaking the bank, here are some ideas on how to refresh your bedroom for winter.
Paint
Paint is always an option, and if you can afford it there’s nothing more luxurious than repainting your walls in a warm neutral tone. If this isn’t an affordable option for you, consider painting your ceiling the same color as the wall. Your bedroom will feel like twice the size! And don’t forget to paint your windows and skirting boards too.
Furniture
Different furniture will also bring a new feel to your bedroom. If you have plain white wardrobes, invest in some wooden ones instead. Of course, such a drastic change such as this may not be an option for you – so adapt it to your needs. Heavier drapes are also a good idea for colder months.
Curtains
If you have open blinds, you need to find ways of keeping the cold out. If your windows are nice and big, consider investing in some heavy drapes or roman blinds that can be closed when it gets chilly. This will save you quite a bit of money this winter!
Ornaments
Ornaments are another way of bringing a new feel to your room without having to do too much. If you’re not really into figurines, consider painting some berry branches on your wall above the bed. This will create an inviting feeling in your bedroom that will make you want to cuddle up in bed.
Textures are also important, so keep some warm throws handy, and make sure to have a nice thick rug below the bed. Alternately, you could put down some roman blinds on your floorboards to create a cozy feel.
