Are you someone who is obsessed with making beds and feels something is missing if not done so? Well, you are not the only one doing it as there are so many people accompanying you through the same ideology. We often get awe-inspired by the visuals our thoughts get us into where we assume our bed with a designer look. There is something about the respective styling as they are modern and classy, yet they are simple and comfortable.
It is easier to find yourself in a befuddled state as just by looking at designer-style bedding, one can never figure out how it is done so. However, you do not need to worry. We do not want you to jump off the roof from the excitement but get ready as the Bedding Republic has something for you. We are going to introduce you to some of the easiest tricks to make your bed as a designer would.
Are you ready to go behind the visuals? Let us dig in:
“Kickstart With the Rudiments”
The first and foremost step is to understand the essentials required for the bed before the classy touch is added to it. The start needs to be correct for a fine look. You must be wondering what to do? And where to begin from?
You can find your answer in the following:
- Let The Mattress Breathe
Take off the spreads already layered on your bed and start with the first layer. Now, what is the first layer? It is the quality sheets being talked about. Most of us do not stress the quality of sheets, whereas they hold a great significance. The sheets should be of the fabric that has qualities such as lightweight, breathable, thermal properties, and others. Most of you must be thinking about natural fibers. Well, you are right! You can choose between cotton and linen. Moreover, if you have any other preferences, make that call.
You must be thinking about which sheets to opt for. The preferable one is a fitted sheet. It possesses a firm fit due to its elastic sides. It will provide your bed with a neat and rightly fitted bottom layer. The colors should be white or cream.
- Make Room for Quilts and Throws
We often see how fluffy and cozy a designer-styled bed looks and wonder if we can ever achieve it by making our bed like it. Well, here we are to make this wonder a reality. As you are done with spreading the sheet, the next step is to add layers. You can add a duvet or a comforter. It is your call to make. However, if you are confused, let us guide you through the difference between the two. The quilt is a two-layer fabric and is thin as compared to a comforter, which is composed of filling that makes it fluffy.
With that, the addition of a throw is necessary to achieve the desired look.
[Are you confused about the quilt fabric? Cotton is the more preferred one when it comes to buying bed linens. Choose quilt covers made of 100% cotton. You can even choose bamboo cotton or any other of your preference from the natural fibers.]
- The Ultimate Stress Reliever
The bed is incomplete without its most significant treasure. Can you guess it? Most of you must have. As the name suggests, ‘stress reliever, is the pillows being talked about. With the main four pillows add in some throw pillows. The color of the main pillows should be white or cream, whereas throws can be of different colors or patterns.
As we are done layering the bed let us look at some designer styles:
“Sleek”
There is no better way to style a bed like a designer than to give it a simpler and more efficient look. As your bed is ready with a fitted sheet layer of white or cream color. Add in a bold color flat sheet. The color can be of your choice, but it is preferred to choose from gray or brown. It will provide a minimal and comfortable look. The contrast will give a surprising look once t is finished. Are you wondering whether we are done designing? No, not yet. The next step is followed by adding a quilt or a comforter on top of the flat sheet. The comforter color should be the same as the sheets. It will help in contrasting with flat sheets.
The flat sheet should be tucked in from all corners. With that, fold the quilt halfway where the flat sheet is seen and finish the look with some throw pillows. The colors should be in contrast to give it a fine look.
Last but not the least, layer your throw blanket of the same color as the flat sheets and layer it in a straight horizontal line or on the bottom side.
“Weird Yet Classy”
If you are someone who does not happily indulge in making a bed but still wants it to look classy, this styling is for you. Visualize the sleek style and begin. Before you start, if you want, you can add a layer of quilt underneath the comforter. Let the sheet be the same. Change the position of the pillows by placing throws against the bed and letting the main white pillows showcase halfway in front of the throw pillows. With that, spread your quilt, where one side of it hangs. Now, add a comforter on top of it but in a weird way. Now you must be wondering about the weird way. Well, as you spread the comforter, let it be a little slant from where the quilt can be seen. As the contrast becomes apparent, it will enhance the look.
Finish the look by adding a throw blanket on the bottom side of the bed and not in a straight line but in a messy way.
This is a swift way towards designer-style bedding.
“Luxe”
Most of us are fond of fluffy bedding. It makes one want to jump right in and feel the warmth and coziness. What would be better than having a bed with a fluffy yet luxurious look? The luxe style is here to guide on how to style it the respective way.
Piles of layers are added to this styling. Let your base layer stay the same. Add a mattress pad to it and top it with a flat sheet, covering all the corners of the mattress. For a luxe bedding experience, layer your bed with an Egyptian cotton sheet. It is smooth and has a silk touch to it. Add the main pillows with some throw pillows in front of them. Make sure the throw pillows are in contrast with the sheet. Add a coverlet of your preference and fold it halfway. The coverlet color should also be in contrast to the sheet and duvet. To top it, add a duvet and fold it below the coverlet.
Wait, are you thinking the design is done?
No, the cherry on the top has still not made its way yet. Place a throw blanket at the bottom edge of the bed. It will provide your bed with a luxurious look.
