10 Things every Bedroom should have

Without giving any second thought we all know that home is the place where we can be ourselves without having to worry about what the world thinks about us. It is our abode of freedom and independent thoughts. Within that very home, the private sanctum of our otherwise busy and public life is the bedroom. It is where we relax without any worries, think without any distraction and dream with all the depth of our imagination. It is also space where we begin and end our day. Don't we deserve the best surrounding us at these two most important times of our daily lives? Enlisted are ten must-haves in a bedroom for a healthy and positive living.

The Nest

Well, leaving aside the bed in the bedroom (isn't that obvious) what is more important for the body to attain sainthood is the mattress. DO NOT compromise while buying one as it the quality of a mattress that has the ability to maintain your physical and psychological well-being. Similarly, the bed linen you use can affect your sleep to a great extent. You'd definitely want your skin to feel comfortable and cozy while you sleep. The investment on your sleeping surface is above any other in a bedroom. After all, we all deserve a good night's sleep.

Mirror Mirror on the wall

Don't we all love to admire ourselves in some way or the other? What better way to reflect our vanity other than a mirror. A mirror is a bedroom essential in more than just helping us look presentable. It is a boon to small sized bedrooms as it gives an illusion of a bigger sized space.

A Place to Sit

There are times when we use our bedrooms other than just for sleeping. We like to be in the coziness of our privacy and enjoy reading a book or sip a cup of coffee. But we need a surface other than a bed for the same purpose to prevent us from falling asleep. A seating corner can boost up your bedroom functionally.

Heaven under your Feet

We often ignore the horizontal surface of our home while trying to focus on the vertical surface. The texture of the surface you put your feet on is very essential. Be it Persian, fur or hand woven, stepping on a soft rug/carpet the first thing in the morning can transform you.

Go Green

Indoor plants have proven to improve the indoor environment. Plants give life to space and can act as a piece of attention in your interior design too. They can be used as artwork and decor to create an enriching indoor quality. Having a tiny planter on your side table or hanging a pot in front of your window can act as a natural air purifier to your bedroom.

A Personal Touch

What is a bedroom without a touch of your own personality? Put in something that defines you. A reading nook with a shelf for books or a collection of your trophies or maybe your own music pad in the corner. This personal stuff give your bedroom the identity it deserves to own.
