8 practical tips for bedroom living
Come to think of it, we spend one quarter of our lives sleeping
on our bed. So do take the trouble to get as comfortable as
possible on that bed of yours.
Here are some tips for your bedroom.
When you are choosing a mattress, the most important thing to
note is whether it is comfortable to lie on. And the only way to
know is to actually lie on the mattress and roll around on it
for at least 10 minutes. Secondly, when choosing the bed make
sure you lie down on the bed too. Make sure that your feet do
not stick out of the bed. I rather go for a longish bed than a
wide bed.
Try not to put your bed in a corner. Otherwise the occupant
sleeping next to the wall will have a hard time getting off the
bed. He has to crawl on the bed before being able to step onto
the floor.
Also don't position your bed facing your windows. The sunlight
will be pouring directly onto your eyes and disturbing your
rest. Even if you draw the curtain you can still see the glare
and brightness of the sun behind the curtain. Ideally the length
bed should be positioned parallel to the window.
Are you exasperated by the loose bed sheets disrupting your
beautiful sleep? Consider tying the excess bed sheet cloth at
the corners of the bed when making the bed so as to prevent the
bed sheet from slipping out due to excessive movement on the bed
Is your wardrobe full and unwieldy? Consider putting away seldom
worn clothes into separate storage bins. In this way, your
wardrobe consists only of things which you need to access and
wear daily. It also makes it easier to keep and store freshly
ironed clothes and choosing a particular outfit.
Lastly, go for a duvet rather
than a comforter as it is easier to clean . You can also slip on different
duvet cover to match the new bed sheet or curtains. Lastly, the
duvet can be used as a substitute for a blanket too.
My last tip is do put on the mattress protector to protect your
mattress against dirt, dust mites, liquids like urine and sweat
and stains. It will not only be more hygienic but will improve
the lifespan of your mattress too.
