Give your bedroom a lift with a great bedspread or throw
When you enter a bedroom, your eyes are automatically drawn towards the bed. Beds often take up the majority of space in a bedroom and are naturally the focal point of the room. Making a bed look good can change the appearance of the whole room. A bedspread or throw is like the icing on the cake and makes the bed look complete. Using a bedspread or throw can make the whole room look tidier and, at the same time, it give the room a wonderful, cosy feeling.
Make your bed beautiful with a bedspread or throw
A bedroom, and especially a bed, is synonymous with rest and recuperation. It is important to make sure that your bedroom feels cosy and inviting to allow you to relax. Taking the time to make your bed is time well spent. That little extra effort makes going to bed feel a little more luxurious bed, like sleeping in a hotel. There are several layers to a well made bed which are all topped off with a lovely bedspread. These extra layers create a bed with that little bit extra. Coordinate your bedroom by using other textiles and follow the same colours to create a colour scheme. Choose a bedspread that matches nicely with your choice of duvet cover set, add a cuddly blanket and some lovely decorative cushions to capture that luxurious hotel feeling in your own bedroom.
However, your bed can be more than just the place where you start and end your day. Sometimes, it can be nice to take some time to unwind after a long day at work. Just lie down on top of your bedspread and relax. A bedspread helps keep your bed fresh during the day and protects your bedding but it can also be warming and snug. If it’s chilly during the night, you can leave your bedspread on when you crawl under the covers to make sure you stay extra warm and cosy.
With bedspreads and throws, it’s easy to add lovely colours and patterns to your bedroom. Perhaps you’d like a beige bedspread that matches nicely with other neutral colours in your bedroom or maybe you’d prefer a colourful bedspread that brightens up your room. Do you want a thicker quilted bedspread? As with many other textiles, bedspreads and throws can something that you change depending on the season. It’s nice to have a throw in breathable linen during the summer and then switch to a more substantial bedspread in velvet for autumn and winter. It’s easy to revitalise the atmosphere in your bedroom and, with a few simple tricks, you can achieve a lot. Decorating with throws and bedspreads is easy and allows you to mix things up creating a different ambiance in your bedroom whenever the mood takes you.
What size bedspread will you choose?
There are bedspreads for both double and single beds. When choosing a size, it’s a good idea to think about how you want the bedspread to look. For example, you might want it to cover the whole bed or perhaps only half and you might want the bedspread to hang over the sides as far as the floor. If you want your bedspread to cover your double bed completely, dimensions of 260x260 cm are normally large enough to give a reasonably long overhang down the sides of the bed. For single beds, 180x260 cm is usually suitable but it depends on how wide your single bed is. If you have a 90 cm wide single bed then the overhang will be about 45 cm on the sides but with a wider bed this would be less. A bedspread for a single bed can also be used on a double bed if you only want it to partially cover the bed. Then you can lay the bedspread across the bed widthways and fold down the duvet over the top edge for a luxurious hotel style bed.
