Spring represents a time of renewal, rebirth, and the promise of new opportunities. It’s also the perfect time of year to revive and refresh the look and feel of your bedroom. Whether you’re looking to replace a thick comforter with soft, lightweight layers, or brighten up your décor with softer pastels and cheery florals, it’s never too early to start thinking about how your space can feel more welcoming, more inspired, and even more therapeutic. We put together five essential tips to reimagining your bedroom for spring—using the softest fabrics, the most luxurious designs, and exclusive prints and patterns you won’t find anywhere else in the world.
Tip 1: Switch It Out
Even if you live in a typically warmer climate, swapping out your winter bedding for more spring-friendly selections is one of the best ways to ensure a more satisfying sleep—and establish a routine that makes you feel good every day. Replacing heavy comforters and blankets with lighter, cooler sheets and layers will help regulate your internal temps so you can achieve a higher level of comfort to fall (and stay) asleep easier.
Tip 2: Lighten Up
Winter colors in the bedroom tend to be deeper and more subdued, but in spring it’s time to throw all that out the window. Spring can be bright and bold. Fun and fresh. It’s a season that celebrates life, and your bedroom should do the same. Adding bright blues and pinks, soft purples and yellows, and even lighter, more neutral grays, are easy, affordable ways to upgrade your sacred space with charming style and chic positivity.
Tip 3: Grow Your Space
Nature inspires wellness. Studies show that just 120 minutes of time outside a week can help us feel happier, healthier, and more rested and rejuvenated. This is time we can benefit from greatly, but not all of us can commit to regularly. Having live plants and flowers in your bedroom is one way to find those natural moments and brings a vitality and freshness to your space that looks and feels amazing! However, if live plants aren’t your thing, another way to add the beauty and benefits from outside to your inside is to add nature-inspired bedding. From satiny-soft sheets featuring botanicals bursting with color to stunning original patterns that emulate the sweet tranquility of deep-sea life, having elements of nature, even if they are simple, can have a significant impact on how you feel in that space, both physically and emotionally.
Tip 4: Add Texture You Can Feel—and See
Sometimes so much focus is put on colors, prints, and temps, that people lose sight of one of the bedroom’s most important features, texture. Adding the silky soft caress of a cashmere blanket feels like heaven, but also adds a smooth, defining layer that can soften the room’s overall tone—creating a more soothing, comforting space. Wispy white lace along a decorative pillow will pop brightly, creating a lavish contrast of light/dark, and adding elegant dimension to every corner. And with hundreds of Schweitzer Linen bedding styles, you can choose from different fabrics, different thickness, and whatever style of weave you prefer—along with intricate designs and embroideries, to create the textured environment right for you.
Tip 5: Replace Your Pillow
Why add a new pillow in spring? For one, there are too many people using the wrong kind of pillow and this may be a major deterrent in the quality of their sleep. That alone makes it worth the investment. In addition to being able to upgrade where you lay your head each night with something more comfortable and better suited to your sleep style, it’s also better for your overall health. Chances are you’ve spent winter sweating into your pillow through the pillowcase. Depending on how often you clean your pillows, or if you don’t clean them at all, you could be sleeping on a bed of bacteria, allergens, and other invasive contaminants. A new pillow can singlehandedly improve the quality of your sleep and keep your head safe from unwanted invaders. In addition, a new pillow also means it’s time to look at new pillowcases. These can offer a simple color tweak that adds intrigue to your décor, a textured fabric or border that better defines your space, or a new shape that plays with the contours of the environment to create a whole new visual experience.
