Hello World! Welcome Friends! When designing a bedroom, you want to ensure that it is comfortable, suits the rest of your home’s interior, and allows you to get a good night’s sleep. However, many homeowners will forget about meshing all these requirements together and instead focus on either making it super cozy for sleeping (forgetting to add charm and character to the place), or on the aesthetics of the room (forgetting to optimize their bedroom for sleeping).
You want to avoid these pitfalls and the common bedroom design mishaps that many of us fall for. Wondering that these mistakes are so that you can avoid them? Read on!
Don’t Buy a Low Quality, Cheap Mattress
A cheap mattress may seem like money saving idea, but it will only harm your body and cause you to experience sleepless nights. The results of a poor mattress are neck and back pain; the mattress losing its shape; and misalignment of your neck, back, hips and other joints. Plus, these pains can transition from short-term to long-term issues.
Reduce your discomfort at night by investing in a good quality mattress that won’t be the source of body aches and pains. You may have to figure out which type of mattress is best suited for your needs (e.g., do you prefer a softer or harder mattress?), but in the long run, the extra hassle will all be worth it. You can find the best hybrid mattress by heading online and reading reviews. Reviews are one of the best ways to decide whether anything is a worthy investment.
Don’t Keep Distractions in the Room
While you may wish to relax in your bedroom before bed or have limited room if you live in a small apartment, it is important that you manage to create some sort of boundary between your daytime and night-time activities. By doing so, your brain can associate your bedroom with sleeping and a place to unwind, rather than another room for you to watch TV or play video games.
If you have a TV and console in your room because there is nowhere else to store it, try and keep the device in a cupboard so that you can keep it out of eyesight and out of mind. The same goes for phones and laptops. Many of us find it all too tempting to watch Netflix in bed or scroll on our phones before bed, but having them located away from us can help us try and unwind before finally drifting off to sleep.
When charging your phone, you should consider charging it away from your bed so that you do not get distracted or woken up by any notifications or alerts. Another benefit is that when your alarm goes off, you are forced to get out of the bed to silence it.
Don’t Settle for Cheap Curtains
Cheap curtains allow light to seep in and can cause you to have a sleepless night. This is especially true if you live on a main road and have the headlights of passing cars or the light from streetlights filtering through. Investing in thick, good quality curtains can make your room darker and reduce the likelihood of unwanted light streaming in and waking you up. You could also consider investing in blinds if they suit your home’s aesthetic more!
There are many do’s and don’ts when it comes to creating the perfect bedroom. However, to ensure you , you need to consider investing in a good quality mattress and eliminating any distractions that could keep you from falling asleep or causing you to wake up in the middle of the night.
