Some bedrooms look ridiculously put together. Every little detail just works, the colours are balanced, the bedding looks like it came straight from a luxury boutique, and nothing feels out of place. Creating that stylish, yet a comfortable bedroom should be easy, right? But trying to recreate that same polished look at home? Well, that usually ends up in a mess of mismatched furniture, curtains that never quite fit, and a bed that still looks lumpy no matter how many times it gets smoothed out. So, the truth is, those professionally designed rooms are not just about having fancy furniture or expensive décor. It all comes down to the details. The small, almost invisible touches bring everything together and make a space feel intentional rather than thrown together. But how can you get this effortless designer look when you can’t afford a designer? Well, there are some ways! Image credit Tailor-Made Window Treatments That Actually Fit Seriously, nothing makes a bedroom look more unfinished than window treatments that feel like an afterthought. For example, curtains that hang awkwardly, blinds that are just a little too short, or window coverings that do not quite sit right throw off the entire room. This is why made-to-measure Roman blinds are a solid upgrade. Well, tailored window treatments in general, Roman blinds just give a more upscale look compared to curtains (unless you have tall ceilings of course then go for curtains). Instead of looking like something that was picked up last minute, they fit the window perfectly, creating a clean, polished finish. If you look at home decor magazines, you’ll notice that this is definitely a major one. Bedding That Feels as Good as It Looks A designer bedroom will never have wrinkled, shiny polyester sheets that feel like sleeping inside a plastic bag. So, why should you? Basically, high-quality bedding makes all the difference, and it does not have to cost a fortune. Chances are, you’ve stayed in at least one nice hotel that’s proved that point. For example, linen is perfect for that effortlessly relaxed, luxury feel, while cotton (especially percale or sateen) gives the bed that crisp, hotel-style finish. But it’s not just the materials, because you need to layer these up! For example, a neatly folded duvet at the foot of the bed, a chunky throw, and cushions (with that little karate chop) can instantly make everything look more intentional. Basically, it is the difference between a bed that looks like it was rushed together and one that looks like it belongs in a magazine spread. Lighting That Actually Feels Cosy There is nothing worse than walking into a beautifully decorated bedroom and being hit with harsh, overhead lighting. Who hasn’t dealt with that? It immediately ruins the vibe, making everything feel cold and uninviting. Well, here’s a secret (well, it’s been going around social media for years so maybe it’s not a secret), but a proper designer-style bedroom always uses layered lighting. For example, bedside lamps, sconces, and even a few candles make the space feel warm and cosy in the evenings.
