Waving goodbye to the gloomy weather, welcoming the season that has a great impact on the whereabouts of our life in this period, from December to February, Summer. With sunny skies and warm degrees, the environment becomes pleasant. This season is the reason why we relish the outdoor activities including playing cricket and tennis, swimming in cold water at the beach, hiking, camping, and many others.
The vibrant colors that ingress with this season also shift the pattern on how the households and other setups require changing. Most importantly with the season, bedroom accessories should change as a modification is always attached by a vibe and what better place could be than your personal space to have a vibe that comforts you.
Of course, the bedroom is not complete without the required furniture and accessories including bed, mattress, dresser, and lights. Let us direct our gazes at some of the prodigious ideas that are a must for the bedroom, particularly in this season.
Throw Rug
Most of the homes have their rooms carpeted but that does not necessarily rule out the idea of incorporating a rug. It will act as an add-on to the shape of the room, which it already holds. Summer is all colorful and playful, thus, this instigates that the rug should have a colorful pattern, easing the way to colorful décor. In addition, this will help in putting dirt out of sight.
The size of the bed should be around 18 inches, of which some parts will be upfront and some will go under the bed. Although a runner could also be added, depending on what you think will give your room a comfortable atmosphere. Even small rugs are also an option, which can be placed alongside the bed. You should go for an option, for a small rug, which will fill the space that is not further off than the wall adjoining the bed.
Phone Holder
Given how entrenched the technology is in this era, it has now become necessary to be attached to our phones more often. Now that rules out the objective of using the phone just for work, you need it for the “me time” as well. Coming home after a long and hectic day, you rush to your room to give your body and mind a sense of peace. As it is a time when the days are longer than nights, thus, sleep comes to us much late. What do we usually do when we cannot sleep? Scroll through the apps on your phone, or even watch a movie.
It is difficult to hold the phone and watch the movies, a better way to resolve this is to have a phone holder right next to your bed/ or on your bed side-table. A great accessory brings in so much ease and comfort to use the phone. Although 7 out of 10 Australians sleep, around 11 pm, during weekends they tend to stay awake, and thus, a phone holder is a great accessory to be attached nearby, making our lives easier. There are different phone holders, especially for the in-bed use including:
- Gooseneck
- Cell-phone stand
- Neck-mount holder
Indoor Plants
What better way could be to enhance the overall appearance of your room than to have an indoor plant placed in it. It has been proven that around 15% of the human capability improves in areas including concentration, reducing anxiety, and even improving the frame of mind. An indoor plant is a great way to push out the pollutants, and make a room for fresh air to ventilate. It is summer and hot so you do not want your room to have asbestos or carbon monoxide, therefore, the removable will be taken over by the plants. They will inflate the atmosphere of the room.
With its quality of improving the air, it also adds an essence of beauty to the room. You will feel your room light and fresh. When you have a plant in your room and you tend to work and talk with it, that can be therapeutic. People might have a different observation on seeing certain behaviors we have with plants but it does not matter when it helps in taking the stress down and improving our mental well-being. Let us have a look at the plants that you can place inside your room:
- Moreton Bay Chestnut
- Umbrella Tree
- Dragon Tail plant
- String of Nickels
All these are Australian natives and help us to relish our personal space.
Wall Art
Your room is not at all settled without a color palate splashed on the walls with a pattern and texture describing its nature for itself. It is one of the elements that complete the look of the room. It is an interior that can make a simple lethargic room into a functional and/or graceful one. It brightens and styles the room. A piece of advice when selecting the wall art design is that it should be in harmony with the base color of the room and the one which soothes the space.
Although small artworks placed on the wall enhances the image of the room in such a way that embellishes the wall, it is better to have a single solid foreground than three to four pieces scattered all over the wall. It should complement the theme of your room. Of, course its look and pattern will be as you desire. Other things that will further be an add-on to the artwork of the room include:
- Framed pictures
- Wall Decalcomania
- Tapestry
Enhance YOUR Personal Space
No abstract has a certain meaning to it but in the context of our aforementioned accessories, the abstract accessory would indicate nothing but creating personal space. Some certain accessories are required for the room including the bed. However, cluttering up the space in the room with unnecessary furniture or other storage can make the room too much to stay in. Therefore, creating space is an abstract accessory for the room to be felt alive in and is breathable. Especially, in this hot temperature, your room needs to have good ventilation. Only keep in the room the necessary furniture such as bed, side tables, dressing table, and others. Rest that does not fit needs to be taken out of the room.
Besides the removable, add something to your room that has a meaningful connection to you. Something personal, which makes your room ‘yours’ and brings in the warmth that you have been longing for.
