Easy autumn/winter decor tips to cosy up your bedroom

When you are leaving and arriving home in the cold and the dark, having a cosy space to snuggle up and unwind is a dream come true. And, whether you’re the type to eat dinner in bed, curl up under the covers with a book, lie down and binge an entire series in one night, or all of the above, you deserve a space that feels like a warm hug – especially when the weather outside is so frightful. Luckily, we have plenty of simple ways to make your bedroom feel comfortable, warm and peaceful this autumn and winter. All of these require little to no interior design skills but will make it look like it was done by the professionals!

Opt for darker walls

There’s no denying that clean white walls can make a bedroom décor feel renewed, classic and seriously fresh. That said, if you’re opting for cosiness and luxury boutique hotel vibes this autumn and winter, a lick of darker paint is guaranteed to up the stress-free feel in an instant. 

Neutrals and natural textures

If darker hues just aren’t for you, that’s totally okay. Instead, opt for complimenting neutral tones for your walls, bedding and soft furnishings to create a cohesive space that feels soothing and tranquil – then warm up the space with plenty of cosy lamp lighting!

Fill the room with fairy lights

Whilst an inexpensive string of multi-coloured fairy lights can look tacky and way too festive to leave up past December, a tasteful string of exposed bulbs with a warm glow can make your room feel instantly more inviting. This is a look that will work in your space all year round.

Use candles to create warmth

The soft flicker and intoxicating fragrance of your favourite scented candle will make your bedroom feel like an undisturbed spa oasis. Just remember to blow them out before you drift off!

Get the lighting right

No comfortable bedroom is complete without a soothing stream of warm light from a table lamp or two. Choose a bedside light with a dimmer so you can lower the brightness as you get sleepier and feel more relaxed. You can also mix things up with decorative styles around your room, to make the design feel considered and comfortingly personal.
