The Best Tips For Fabrics In Your Bedroom

Your bedroom should be a haven in your home. It should be all about relaxation, coziness, and even a little touch of luxury. Of course, home décor is a big part of that. Fabrics are one of the best ways to create a cosy environment in your home. It’s all about finding the right look. That often means finding the right fabrics. Check out these top fabrics to make your room as cosy and welcoming as you need it.

Bedding

Your bed is the star of your room, and you want it to be comfortable with a touch of luxury. Depending on your style, you might choose to go with something light and airy, or something cosier. Colour and style is only part of it. Check out these options for the most comfortable choice for your bedroom.

Cotton

The best option for the perfect comfortable bedding is some kind of cotton. Cotton is lightweight and airy, so it allows the room, and you, to breath. Natural fibres work best, but if your budget is a little tight, try synthetics, like a cotton and poly blend.

Flannel

If comfort is the ultimate goal, go with an extra soft cotton like flannel. Especially helpful in winter nights or colder climates, flannel gives you a sense of softness while keeping you cosy and warm. A flannel sheet set to keep you warm, and a cotton comforter to keep you toasty warm at night.

Silk

For an extra touch of luxury, silk and satin comforter or sheet sets can add some glam to your room, while staying cool and light. They’re perfect for a romantic bedroom, and they’re always sexy when you’re trying to impress!

 

Rugs

Rugs are another way to inject some softness and warmth into your bedroom. They’re warm, welcoming, add a pop of colour, and more importantly, can help keep you warm on colder mornings! There are multiple types and textures to play with, depending on your mood and the style of your bedroom. Of course, we can’t forget to choose something that is simple to clean, and will last as long as you need it to!

Wool

A wool rug gives you a touch of softness without breaking the bank. It can also make a space feel warmer on those cold days when you just can’t get out of bed! True wool rugs are more expensive than the synthetic, but are far easier to clean, and come in a variety of styles and colours.

Seagrass

If you’re feeling adventurous, a seagrass rug can help make your bedroom feel a bit like a getaway, while also being practical, clean, warm and comfortable. Seagrass may be a little trickier to clean than more traditional materials like linen, cotton, or wool, but it’s a great way to give your room the touch of the exotic.

Jute

For that same touch of the exotic without all the hassle, try Jute. Jute is a material formed from weaving tropical plants. It’s very strong and durable, and all you need to do is vacuum regularly and hang it out to dry –  it will stay looking fabulous and feeling soft for years to come.

 

Curtains

Curtains are another great way to add texture to a room. They also help control light, and are great for setting and creating a mood for your room. Depending on what you’re going for, there are several materials to choose from.

Lace

For something soft and gentle, you’ll want something pretty and light, like lace and voile. It’s a great way to let in light and keep the room feeling bright while giving you a sense of privacy when you need it. Lace and voile also look and feel a little luxurious and expensive, and can add a touch of glam to your otherwise cosy space.

More Cotton

To keep things breezy while adding a touch of brightness to the room, go with a cotton or cotton blend on your curtains. Various cotton options come with different price ranges, so it’s a nice way to be flexible on the budget, while not compromising quality. Cotton curtain sets are widely available, so you’ll have plenty of options for every room style.

Velvet

If privacy is important to you, or you’re going for something more dramatic, opt for a heavier fabric like velvet. Don’t be afraid to be bold.

Your bedroom is a haven in your home. It’s all about striking the right balance between comfy and peaceful, with the little touches of luxury that make it feel special, and uniquely yours. To hit the right balance with your fabrics, follow these tips. Your room will be as cosy, luxurious and even adventurous as you want it to be!
