The sun is shining, the weather’s hotting up and I think it’s time to shed the thick wool blankets and cosy bedding in favour of soft French linen and bright pastel shades in the bedroom. With Spring in full bloom, I feel the need to refresh, de-clutter and brighten up my home. I’m thinking lots of calming natural textures, clusters of plants (if I can keep them alive) and accents of blush pink or fern green. The windows open and the sun pouring in.
But, you don’t have to completely overhaul a bedroom to get a new perspective, by simply changing the bedding, adding a new print to your collection or a cushion or two, you can create an easy-to-attain, affordable update for Spring. Or simply, by rearranging the room around – that used to be my absolute favourite pastime as a teenager…
At the moment, I’ve just got a new rug to go by my bedside (more of that next week) and have switched up my cotton sheets and wool blanket for much lighter and breathable linen (from Soak & Sleep, I do use them in the winter too). It feels fresher already. But I can’t help thinking what else I would like to do with my bedroom, so here I’ve gathered some inspiration for lovely light Spring bedrooms (there’s even a bit of colour in there…).
And here’s how you can get the look: a mid-century bed frame, a contemporary concrete light, soft ticking bedding and a little dash of blush pink…
