Purchased your divan and are looking for ways to style it? Here's our expert step by step guide to dressing your divan.
Just purchased a new divan bed? Or are you considering one and are envisioning how you would dress it?
Your bed is often the centrepiece of the bedroom - cosy, inviting and furnished to reflect your personality and style. Of course, if you’re an interior decor expert, then accessorising your new bed will be no problem. However, if you’re looking for more luxurious tips on you to dress a divan bed, then look no further.
Your divan headboard has many benefits. Not only does it act as a barrier between your head and the wall, allowing you to sit up in bed comfortably, it can also create a stylish addition to your divan.
We have a headboard to suit every furnishing preference. Whether you prefer clean lines and a minimalist style, or a regal, luxuriously upholstered finish, you’ll find that our headboards are incredibly versatile.
Bedding is arguably the most important aspect in giving your bed the perfect style to suit your personality and aesthetic.
A good quality duvet will not only look plump and inviting, but will keep you at the optimal temperature throughout the night. Even the best divan set can’t ease all of your aches and pains if your pillow is flat and lifeless, so ensure your head and neck are properly supported - and find out how many pillows you should sleep with.
Covering your bed in high quality pillows, throws and blankets will make a world of difference to creating the ideal centrepiece for your bedroom.
Never underestimate the power of good quality bed linen. Materials such as Egyptian cotton are renowned for being the finest cotton for bedding – it is soft, light, breathable, and improves with every use. Expelling moisture and keeping air circulating, you can be guaranteed to have a good night's sleep, especially when the weather gets warmer.
Decide on a colour for your bed linen and build a colour palette of complementary colours through your cushions, throws and other accessories in the room. This will help tie the bedroom’s overall look together.
Don’t be afraid to use throws and cushions to style your divan bed. Finding the right type will depend on whether you want something soft you can sink into or firmer for that extra support. A big, fluffy cushion can look great with a few smaller ones and can really tie into your bedding and linen.
Incorporating a good balance of textures, colours, and sizes will help add some depth and luxury to your style. If you’re looking for a more minimalist design when dressing your divan bed, then raw textures and weaves can help break up the simplicity.
Attention to detail can elevate the aesthetic of your divan bed more than you may realise – after all, it’s the little things that count.
Research has found that spending a couple of seconds in the morning making sure your bed is made and your bedroom is tidy gives you a sense of accomplishment and sets you up for a good day.
Making sure your bedding is made, the sheet is tucked tightly under your mattress, and pillows are faced with the zip down and hidden out of view will help to bring everything together nicely.
