Our homes, and in fact, nearly everything in our lives are big collections of the choices we make. From the colours of the walls through to the food we keep in the fridge, every little thing has a little bit of information to say about ourselves. Naturally though, there are a few spaces which are more personal than others. Our living rooms, bathrooms and of course – bedrooms are all huge indicators of not only personal tastes, but also personality. So what does your bedroom say about you?
Wall colours
Warm tones like yellow and orange, along with peach and the ilk have a cheery disposition, hinting you have the same, whereas blues and other lighter colours are indications that you see your space as a calm place away from the crazed, hectic world outside. The now standard white or cream hints at practicality and an even-keeled personality, whereas deep reds are a big sign towards passion and sexuality, something which might tempt you in the bedroom.
Bed sheets
Picking the right bed sheets can be a tricky task, go too floral and you’re risking appearing too soft, whilst going for the silk sheets with love hearts might send a bit of a strong message to those lucky enough to enter your bedroom. Keep it neutral with simply, classy patterns and a throw, and of course, always keep them clean, nothing is more distressing than a mucky bed sheet.
Furniture
This is one of the biggest things (both literally and figuratively) in your room, cluttering your space is an absolute no no. Your bedroom should, above all, be a place where you can forget the hectic nature of life and enjoy peace and relaxation before you have to get up for it in the morning. By cluttering your space you risk ruining this effect. If the choice is between a large, built in wardrobe and a collection of draws, wardrobes and clothes rails, I know which I prefer. The same can be said for your television, which acts as a distracting force in your room, as well as a source of clutter. Do yourself a favour and invest in a high quality TV bed, often with the TV included, to eliminate both the clutter and distraction, as well as take your bed from drab and typical into the realms to futuristic cool.
