How To Create A Cosy Bedroom

How To Create A Cosy Bedroom

Your bedroom should be the comfiest spot in the house. It’s where you start and end your day, so it needs to feel just right. Snug, stylish, and somewhere you can truly unwind. Whether you’re curling up with a good book or crashing after a long day, we’ve got the tips to help you create a cosy bedroom you’ll never want to leave.

Go Big on Texture

Want that cosy feel? It’s all about layering different textures. Think chunky knit throws, soft cushions, and snuggly bedding you can sink into. Mixing things up with velvet, cotton, wool and even a bit of faux fur adds depth and makes your room feel a whole lot warmer (and way more inviting).

Don’t forget your floor either – a thick, soft carpet or a plush rug can make getting out of bed in the morning feel just a bit less painful. We’ve got loads in stock that’ll be perfect for any budget or taste. And if you’re after something hard wearing but still warm, laminate with a big soft rug on top is a great combination too.

Let Lighting Do the Hard Work

Nothing ruins a relaxing atmosphere faster than a bright ceiling light beaming down on you like you’re on stage. Swap it out for softer, low-level lighting. Think bedside lamps, fairy lights or even a dimmer switch if you’re feeling fancy. Go for warm bulbs too – they make everything feel cosier, no matter the weather outside.

Pick Colours That Feel Like a Hug

Bold and bright is great in some rooms, but in the bedroom, calm is key. Soft, warm tones like beige, blush pink, sage green or warm greys help create a peaceful atmosphere where you can properly switch off. Fancy a bit of drama? A deep navy or forest green works wonders, especially if you pair it with warm woods and soft textiles.

Add a Rug (or Two)

If you don’t want wall-to-wall carpet, a rug is your best bet. Stick one under the bed or go for something small and fluffy by the side, so your toes hit something soft in the morning. It also helps define the space and adds that extra bit of comfort. And let’s be honest – rugs just make a room look more ‘done’, don’t they?

Make It Personal

Nothing says cosy like filling your bedroom with bits and bobs that mean something to you. Photos, books, candles, a few plants – these little touches make the space feel more you. And if it brings a smile when you walk in, you’re on the right track.

Keep Clutter at Bay

A cosy bedroom isn’t just about what you put in – it’s also about what you leave out. Too much clutter can make the space feel cramped and stressful. Storage boxes, under-bed drawers and clever wardrobes are lifesavers. Keep it tidy, keep it chilled.

Finish With Flooring That Feels Fab

Let’s not forget the floor – it covers the biggest area in the room after all. A soft, deep-pile carpet is always a winner for comfort. But if you fancy something a bit different, try laminate with a big cosy rug over the top – the best of both worlds. And remember, at Frank’s, you won’t find flooring for less. So there you have it – easy, cosy bedroom upgrades without breaking the bank.
