Create a Soothing Bedroom Space with Tommy Bahama Furniture

Your bedroom is a sanctuary, a place to escape, relax, and rest. Or at least it should be. If you don’t feel that way, take a look around, maybe your bed needs a dramatic headboard, or maybe you should redo the entire space in soothing neutrals? If you thought yes to any of these questions, then it might be time for a bedroom refresh with pieces from the Tommy Bahama Ivory Key Collection.

Build a Foundation

When it comes to bedroom décor, the bed almost automatically commands the most attention, so why not make it a stunning centerpiece in your room? Invest in a good bed with decorative elements that set the style for your space. Get an updated yet traditional look with details such as leather wrapped rattan and Chippendale inspired design such as the Tommy Bahama Ivory Key Pritchards Bed. This will give you a lasting foundation that you can change at any time by merely swapping out bed linens, painting the walls, and changing the throw pillows. Or you can opt for just the headboard if your space is limited.

Your bedroom is a place of rest, so consider a color scheme in soft neutrals—they don’t have to be boring. When you set the tone with neutrals you can add pillows in grays, blues, greens, and lavenders without detracting from the tranquility of the space. Think of your bed linens as a design element, you can change them at time to remake the look and feel of the space, but remember to keep it calm and soothing.

Add Some Seating

If you have the space for it, add a seating area to your bedroom. A comfortable chair or chaise will give you a place to curl up and read, or just enjoy some time to yourself. You could also add a bench or chest at the end of the bed. At first you may not feel like you need one, but once it’s there, you’ll be surprised how useful it becomes. Having a bench at the end of the bed gives you place to put on your shoes and can even provide extra storage.

Another option is to use two smaller ottomans together. Two Half Moon Caye Ottomans from Tommy Bahama make a statement at foot of your bed. Available in customizable upholstery options, they add softness and subtle color to your bedroom while staying within the overall theme. 

Additional Touches

You may prefer an armoire instead of a dresser—go ahead and swap them out. If you your television currently rests atop your dresser, consider an armoire that provides a place to discretely house the TV without losing storage space.

Remove the carpeting, if you can, and replace it with wood flooring or tiles. If you are worried about cold toes add an area rug with a nice woven texture or subtle design. Every wall in your home needs great artwork, so put together a gallery wall of botanical prints or hang just one eye-catching piece of art.

And last but not least, consider the lightning needs of your bedroom. To keep the calm, soothing vibe, don’t go for anything too bright. You can bring in a hint of glamour by hanging a chandelier, but be sure to include bedside lamps if you enjoy reading before you sleep.
