How to up the Luxe Factor

6 Quick hacks to make your bedroom feel that little bit more special.

As winter approaches, we tend to spend more time indoors, making it essential to create a personal sanctuary that suits your needs. Upping the luxurious feel of your home and bedroom doesn’t have to break the bank—small adjustments can dramatically enhance the space where you spend the most time.

Choose a Plush Duvet

Opting for a thick duvet with a high tog rating is a smart winter investment, especially with rising heating costs. In fact, UK searches for “thick duvet” have surged by 663% over the past five years. A heavier duvet not only keeps you warm but also creates a hotel-like atmosphere at home, reminiscent of top boutique styles.

Add a Statement Headboard

Pinterest analysis indicates that larger headboards, including “headboard walls”, are becoming increasingly popular as a luxurious trend. A headboard often serves as the focal point of the room, and a larger one can greatly influence the overall atmosphere. By using panelling or selecting a neutral-toned headboard, you can infuse your space with elegance and sophistication.

Incorporate Timeless Hardware

Classic pieces like chairs, vanity tables and wardrobes can establish the desired ambiance in your bedroom. Choosing wooden furniture can significantly elevate the space’s luxurious vibe.

While investing in high-quality items may seem overwhelming, splurging on durable, low-maintenance and timeless hardware can lead to savings in other areas. Such pieces maintain their luxurious appeal for longer, minimising the need for frequent replacements. Data shows a growing trend in consumer preference for durable items, with searches for wooden vanity sets averaging over 4,000 per month on Google.

Include a Decorative Throw or Blanket

For those unsure about introducing bold colours into their bedroom, a decorative throw or blanket can provide a perfect touch of vibrancy in a neutral setting. Placing a throw at the foot of the bed can unify the room and draw attention to the bed, enhancing its luxurious feel.

If throws aren’t your style, consider investing in striking wall art. Selecting a few impactful pieces rather than overcrowding the walls can create a more luxurious finish. Larger artworks tend to make a bolder statement.

Eliminate Clutter

One of the easiest and most effective ways to achieve a luxurious look is by minimising clutter. An abundance of mismatched items can detract from the room’s elegance. Maintaining a tidy space conveys luxury effortlessly. Consider large storage solutions like a statement chest of drawers or an ottoman-style bed to help achieve this look.

Switch to Blackout Curtains

Installing blackout curtains is a quick and effective method to add a touch of luxury to your bedroom while also serving a practical purpose. They not only darken the room for a better night’s sleep but also impart a high-end feel that will make returning home a pleasure.
