How To Create The Ideal Bedroom

Many folks see the bedroom as a place for escaping the insanities and hustle and bustle of the world, or if you’re a busy mum, a place to escape the demands of family life for a while – or at least try to! But only when the bedroom is clean and tidy, can it ever provide us with the kind of relief and comfort we ask of it.

If you’re stuck with a bedroom that is anything but a sanctuary thanks to a build up of clutter and grime, here are some ways to help transform it:

Begin with a clean slate

Starting with a clean slate means getting rid of any items that don’t have a place in the bedroom. Either move them to their rightful place in another room or space, sell them, donate them, or upcycle them.

Then, once the bedroom only contains items that belong in it, you can concentrate on cleaning it from top to bottom, not forgetting such areas as the windows, ceilings, and beneath furniture.

Set up a regular cleaning schedule

It’s important that your bedroom stays clean once you’ve carried out a deep clean, and establishing a routine to follow, can help. For example, you can list some smaller cleaning tasks that you’ll do every day, such as making the bed and putting laundry away, or weekly tasks such as dusting and changing the bed linen.

Ensure you have plenty of storage

Having somewhere easily accessible that you can store items you don’t use everyday in, is essential for an organized bedroom, and with so many storage options to choose from, you shouldn’t struggle to find some that match the design of your bedroom, and which are affordable.

Introduce allergen-reducing practices

Although this doesn’t necessarily contribute to a cleaner, tidier bedroom, it will help convert it into a healthier, more comfortable and relaxing space for you to unwind in. Some practices you can try include washing your bedding regularly to prevent a build-up of dust mites and other microscopic creepy crawlies, using allergen-proof bedding covers, vacuuming regularly (ideally with a vacuum that has a HEPA filter), and controlling the humidity levels with a dehumidifier to stop mold from growing and limit dust mites.

Hire a professional cleaner

What better feeling than entering a bedroom that’s been professionally cleaned from top to bottom, without so much as a speck of a dust in sight! You could experience this every day if you hired a professional home cleaning service, and they might just be more affordable than you thought.

Explore home cleaning options in your locality, and guarantee yourself a calm and clean bedroom to unwind in at the end of every day.  

Start using some mindful techniques

By being present and intentional in all of your actions, you can encourage your bedroom to become a calmer, tidier space that you look forward to spending time in. Some mindful practices include making your bed every morning, being grateful for the calming space your bedroom provides you with, and tidying up and decluttering periodically.

It may be that your bedroom needs a complete overhaul to turn it into the ideal space for relaxing in, but more often than not, a few simple steps such as those listed above, are all it takes.
