The ideal room
Make a list of what you want from a bedroom. Do you need a room you can escape to, watch TV, work or just sleep in? Do you want a really big bed or lots of storage? Do you like a particular look? Be realistic about what you can achieve in the space you have.
The plan
Start by sketching a plan of the structural elements, like the chimney breast, windows and doors - basically the things that can't be moved. Then experiment with the position of the key pieces - the bed, wardrobes, chests, remembering that you need space for drawers to open and to walk around the bed.
The bed
Go for the biggest bed you can. Disturbance from a partner is one of the commonest cause of sleep complaints. As to where to position it, most choose the obvious and put the headboard up against a wall, but a little lateral thinking might free up valuable wall space. Try moving your bed into the centre of the room and using the wall behind for a wardrobe with sliding doors. Even if you don't believe in feng shui, it's better to plan your room so your bed isn't right behind the door as it can make the room feel quite closed in.
The built-in option
As fitted bedroom furniture goes from the floor to the ceiling, there are no gaps. This means less dusting and makes the most of awkward areas like sloping ceilings. Also when you use the full height of a wall you can create useful high cupboards for storing little used items like hats and extra bedding. What many people like about fitted bedrooms is the opportunity to choose their own co-ordinated scheme.
The freestanding option
If you like the look(and portability) of freestanding wardobes and chests, check they have the internal fittings you'll need. Look at your clothes and decide what will be useful - drawers for folding jumpers, shelves for shoes and full-length hanging space for party dresses and winter coats. Take advantage of the trend for customising pieces to get the exact combination and look you want. For instance, BoConcept not only sells different-sized chests and wardrobes, you can also choose handles, legs and wood finish.
The inside of your wardrobe
Whether you go for a fitted or freestanding option, the secret to a relaxing bedroom can lie behind the cupboard doors. So devote as much time to planning the inside as you do to choosing the wardrobe itself. You'll be amazed how many more closes you can fit in with double-height hanging rails, drawers with dividers and fully extendable drawers that mean you can get to things right at the back. Ikea and The Holding Company sell great space-saving accessories.
The flooring
As your bedroom gets much less traffic than other rooms, you can have more textured carpets - like a loop-pile - and choose paler shades than you might use downstairs. Wood floors - either solid or engineered - and laminates are becoming more popular in the bedroom and can be combined with underfloor heating. If you're unsure about the minimalist look, add comfort by having a deep-pile rug next to the bed.
The lighting
Don't leave the lighting to the end - particularly if you are going to need extra sockets or want to fit wall lights. The basic rule is that bedrooms need to be bright in the morning and atmospheric at night. Fitting a dimmer switch and having bedside lamps helps achieve this balance. You can also use lighting to highlight features, for instance, line the front of your wardrobes with discreet low-voltage downlighters.
The look
Your bedroom is one room in which you can give your personality full rein, so don't be afraid to try out a scheme that might be a bit much in the living room. Glamour looks work well, with daring colour schemes and glam elements, like mirrored furniture, metallics and white leather. Or opt for dark woods for smart, grown-up luxury.
The atmosphere
Don't forget that your bedroom should be a room in which you feel truly relaxed. That way you have much more chance of getting a good night's sleep. If you must have a television or computer in your bedroom, create as much separation space between them and your sleeping area as you can. Ideally, it's best to have them built in, so that they can be hidden away when not in use.

There's a space between our hearts and our heads where life gets mixed up, jumbled and unmanageable. When we can live fully in the moment and be present in our lives it's amazing the gifts we get. When we live in the chatter in our heads; the shoulda, coulda, woulda, we miss the beauty of what is. Disorganization and clutter can steal our now. It feeds the chatter and creates un-manageability. Peace and serenity slip away.
Peace Stealer #1 - Getting out the door
Tips for getting out the door - STOP! The toughest part is creating new habits and breaking the crazy cycle of rushing. You can do it. Take time out now or take it when you are sick from stress or exhaustion. Choose now. Don't minimize the effects of stress on body & spirit. 15 minutes in the evening restores serenity in the morning.
- When the homework is done, put the backpacks by the door.
- When packing up backpacks, check for signatures needed and any other work due.
- Take 5 to pack lunches the night before, do this at dinner clean up so there's one clean up activity in the kitchen.
- Consider healthy breakfast bars for grab n go. Keeps you out of the drive thru and the ATM.
- Keep trail mix or healthy non perishable snacks in the car to avoid drive thru.
The alarm goes off and the dread creeps up from your stomach to shoulders to head as you become more conscious. You fell into bed late and have a full day ahead. The rush begins, skip the flossing, your hair dry's a natural and maybe the wrinkles in your clothes aren't that bad. Dole out the lunch money, your wallet now empty, feed the cat instead of yourself and run like a maniac gathering books, homework and Oh NO! "What do you mean it's due today?" Sound familiar?
Peace Stealer #2
Someone "helped" by bringing in the mail, some is on the table, some on the microwave. The pile is looming, the VISA is late AGAIN and the To File stack is now migrating to Canada. Wait, "Where's the insurance form," the passport, the school needs what certificate to register for kindergarten?
Tips for paper/mail management
- Establish one place for mail. Either the "helper" puts in there, and ONLY there, or leaves it in the mailbox.
- Establish bill pay dates 5th & 20th, 1st & 15th and schedule time with yourself to do this. (Trust me, it's less daunting when there's a plan)
- Go through the mail over the trash. Toss ads etc, open EVERYTHING. Toss all extra inserts, envelopes. Keep "only" what you need to pay or take action on.
- Use a small basket for envelopes, deposit envelopes, stamps and bills to keep it all together. Review the basket 1st & 15th.
- Simplify files so things can easily get where they belong - keep them out of Canada.
Peace Stealer #3 - Bedroom Clutter
Shoving stuff off the bed or high stepping over "God knows what" in the bedroom DOES NOT make for restful sleep or a serene start to the day. There's something so unsexy about mounds of laundry next to the bed or closet doors that won't close.
Tips for restful bedroom
- Go thru and purge the closet. We wear 20% of our clothing 80% of the time. If it's not seasonal and you haven't worn it in 6 months - let it go.
- Get rid of ill fitting, faded & worn clothes - your body deserves to look good and be comfortable.
- Do a load of laundry a day if it's overwhelming. 10 minutes to gather it and start the load - set a timer so you get it to the dryer on the same day.
- Consider IKEA hanging laundry baskets. One white, one black (whites/colors) they're inexpensive and "presort" the clothes!
- Consider a soft light for evening wind down time to get your mind & body ready for sleep.
- Give yourself the gift of reading or other relaxing activity before bed.
Any significant, "real" change requires slight persistent effort. Being organized takes daily attention but as your systems become the new habit you'll find it takes less effort to be organized than disorganized.
The payoff? Sanity, peace and a much slower pace. Your energy level will rise when your stuff no longer sucks the life out of you. You breathe better when you have room to move freely and your relationships improve when you slow down enough to see each other. Your spirit expands when you are in the moment, enjoying what is.
