Bedrooms are no more only meant for sleeping, they are also your go-to zone for some lounging and snuggling, which makes it important to have a cosy and comfortable bedroom. It is commonly seen that many people leave a lot of space unutilized in their bedroom and that is set to change today!

With our tips, you can incorporate some trendy items into the décor of your room in such a way that it lends a warm and cosy vibe to your personal space. The first element that you need to incorporate into your bedroom is a feeling of hush and calm, such that entering your bedroom becomes a soothing and calming experience. This can be done by adding some depth to your room by the means of placing a few antiques here and there. Another method to add some pristine quality to your bedroom is to have warm wood walls covered with diluted wash and use natural muted shades like white, light grey, blue and shades of pale pink in the fabrics used in the room. The use of white bed linen can add that extra crispness to your bedroom and bring out the contrast of wooden walls the best.

Another twist that you can add to your bedroom is to use curtains that are quilted. This may sound a little bizarre to few but have some faith and use them to adorn the windows of your bedroom. This will not only look prettier and be more durable than an average curtain but will also look so cosy that you will feel like snuggling up to them. Last but not the least, if you have a sunny alcove tucked in a corner of your bedroom, then add a pretty antique armchair to the corner.

These complementing colour tones will make your bedroom seem warm and enveloping, while also acting as a dramatic contrast to each other. Now, take a look around your room, it seems to be ready to wrap you up in its embrace!

The coming year is almost knocking on the door and yet again we are left wondering how this year just passed by! Retrospections are good for the soul but the more pressing need for many of you right now is how to remodel your ‘home sweet home’ this New Year. The trends in home décor for the upcoming year seem to focus more on colours than anything else.

The trick seems to be to opt for vivid colours and add some drama to your house. The designer trend of home décor is leaning towards chic combinations of bright patterns. There are a couple of hues which are going to help you set your house apart if only you are brave enough to embrace them.

The rich blue of the Mediterranean when paired with grey or pink can transfer your interiors from drab to fabulous in no time. Bright and lively combinations like orange and olive are also to die for as they lend a new life to the walls. Even if you don’t want to do your walls, you can start small with furnishings and rugs around the house. For the slightly adventurous, there is this particular combination of vibrant classic blue and green, lending your interiors a fresh bold look.

There is no hard and fast rule here and all these shades can be played around with, as per your choice and tastes, as long as you can get the combinations right. Another set of colours which can be used are for the lesser bold ones amongst us. For you, there are the pastel shades of orange and purple sunsets, green palm trees, aqua pools and pink flamingos. It is a majorly neutral palette but with shocking neon thrown in between to brighten things up.

And here comes the winner of all shades, grey. Many might dismiss it as a boring neutral but it is undeniably the hottest colour. It provides the perfect backdrop to almost any setting. Combine grey combinations of green, plums, pale blue, beige and white and see the transformation yourself.

So, go out there indulge in some bold colour mixing of warm tones like rust, olive, mint, aubergine with pinks, purples and vivid greens to give your house a dynamic and vibrant vibe along with giving it a modern twist.

A kitchen was traditionally defined as a place where food is prepared and cooked but fortunately gone are those days. Kitchens have now taken on the role of warm corners where the family gathers for quick snacks or a peaceful area for couples to whip up a meal together. If you have not hopped on to the designer kitchen bandwagon yet, awaken the dormant designer in you and get ready for this fun exercise!

The first step you can take towards getting a glamorous kitchen is to add some stainless steel detailing to it in the form of some metal shelving, which can be used for keeping small spice boxes, tea, mugs and other knick knacks.

It is show time now, so take out those fine crockery collections and make use of the space between cabinets in front of a window by adding simple shelves. Use these to display your collection and let them adorn your kitchen. You can also adopt another innovative idea to display your dishware. Make your upper cabinets open, that is without doors, this will make your kitchen seem spacious and will also allow for a proper display space. You need not restrict this creative idea for bigger upper cabinets and can apply these to even smaller cabinets located below. The twist that you can add is instead of just keeping them open, put fitted baskets, bins and pretty glass storage containers, which will make your kitchen look trendy.

A plate rack is an idea we would like to steal from traditional cottage style kitchens. They help in breaking the monotony of cabinets and are perfect for displaying your pretty dishware. You can also add a pop of colour in the form of hanging some colourful and vintage aprons in your kitchen, which can instantly brighten up the mood. Apply these small changes to your kitchen and see the huge difference they make to your kitchen.
