Sleepy, Meet Sexy. We are focusing on our Master Bedroom this week. Your Master Bedroom should be one part restful, and one part seductive. When you think Master Bedroom think about only two things, rest and intimacy. It is time to get rid of distraction in your Master Bedroom. In your Master Bedroom these are the only products/items you should have.
Good Mattress
Amazing Sheets
Plush Bedding - Cozy Blanket(s) and Comforter
Side Tables and or Dressers used as side tables
Dresser if you need one
New Sleeping Pillows Every Year
Good Natural and Accent Lighting
Fresh Flowers
Comfortable Rug
Drama and Textures
Decor that brings you joy
Your Master Bedroom should not have personal photos, no television, and no technology. I know this is probably going to be hard for you, but these items do not belong in a Master Bedroom. Your bedroom should feel calming, relaxing, dramatic, seductive, it should smell amazing and look amazing. Don’t forget to make your bed everyday.
I know this is a sensitive subject but lets chat really quick about kids in the bedroom. The bottom line, is you have to do what is right for you but I would highly recommend you keep the kids from sleeping in your bed. The best thing I ever did in all my homes is put a bed for adults in my babies rooms. My kids have never slept in my bed and they think it is really weird that some kids sleep with their parents. By providing an adult bed in their rooms you can sleep with them when they need you; when they are sick and or scared. They learn very quick this is their space, they learn to love their space, and they enjoy when you are there for them too. You have to remember the bed is made for two not three, four, or more!!! How did you bring these little cuties into the world? I am guessing, there was not anyone else in your bed!!!
Focus this week on bringing warmth, drama, and seduction into your bedroom.
Have a great week!
