Making and styling a bed is not always as easy as 1-2-3, but we have some tips to make your life easier. Here’s a little guide to make your bed look – and feel – dreamy! Create that space that you can’t wait to dive into after a long day.
base
The first step begins with sourcing quality bedding (of course after selecting a mattress of your liking!). Don’t skimp here – you want your bedding to look and feel beautiful, and to retain quality well after the first wash. If you haven’t picked up on it yet, at GLDESIGN we never sway from crisp white linen bedding. Linen creates that perfectly laid back lived-in vibe and it only gets softer over time. Yes please! We also opt for down alternative inserts steering clear of feather allergies to create the perfect restful sleep.
layers
Adding layers upon layers helps add texture which elevates your look. Why not treat yourself with a hotel worthy bed as inviting as can be! Texture includes a quilted blanket to layer over your duvet, a chunky knit throw casually draped across it or of course a million pillows!
dimension
Throw pillows are the critical pieces that help add dimension, balance and coziness. Here’s where you can have fun with pops of color, pattern, sizing and texture. Love boucle? Mix it up! Need a lumbar, go big or go home! Want stripes? Pair it with some neutrals. We love a stacked pyramid look with two 24″ throw pillows in the back and a 20-22″ pillow, or a simple long lumbar, nestled in front of them.
