Creating a versatile space for your bedroom

We all need a dedicated area in our bedroom for a get-ready space. Whether that be in the corner of your room, or near your wardrobe, there are several things you can do to make your bedroom a versatile space.

If your room is tight on space, you will want to invest in smart storage solutions to ensure that it doesn’t look overly cluttered. This will enable you to become beautifully organised. 

Read on for our tips on how to make your bedroom functional as both a sleeping and dressing area.

Fitted Wardrobes

Choosing to have custom-made wardrobes as opposed to freestanding, might be the most worthwhile decision you make, helping you to create a stress-free and orderly space. The perks of opting for a bespoke design are plentiful: you can plan the storage requirements with your designer, deciding precisely what you need to organise your clothing and belongings in the space you have.

Choosing a variety of wardrobe interiors will also help keep your space beautifully organised.

With pull-out shoe racks, shelving, double-hanging rails, and other organisers, you can keep everything in one place, making it the ideal solution if you also use your bedroom for getting ready.

Mirrors

The key to a good getting-ready space is the use of mirrors. Opting for mirrored wardrobes is the perfect choice if you want to make use of your bedroom space and maximise every millimetre.

Mirrored wardrobes are a multifunctional space-saver, giving you the storage you need, but also making it the focal point of the room - enhancing it to seem bigger and brighter.

Not only that but for a getting-ready space, we couldn’t think of anything better.

Another alternative to saving space in your room is a glamour cabinet. If you have an abundance of makeup and accessories and want to avoid a cluttered space, incorporating a glamour cabinet into your wardrobe is the smart solution. 

You can have your mirror placed centrally, and shelves on either side to store your go-to products to get ready, making them easily accessible. There really is a solution for every space, no matter how small!

Dressing Table

If you have the space, adding a dressing table is ideal for a getting-ready spot.

When creating a space to get ready, it is easier to have a place to sit within easy reach of your belongings. This is so you don’t struggle to find everything you need.

Listening to music while sitting comfortably at your dressing table is a great way to get in the mood for the day or evening ahead. 

Even better, you can add a USB port to your dressing table so you can listen to music while keeping your phone charged.

Lighting

Lighting is essential. Creating the perfect ambience for your getting-ready space can help you get in the mood and get a full visual of your look.

Having lighting that pours down your wardrobes or is built into your dressing table or glamour cabinet can make a huge difference to your bedroom and getting-ready space. 

Perhaps choosing lighting that gives you different options is the best solution if you use your bedroom as a getting-ready spot. 

Whether you need it brighter whilst getting ready, or slightly dimmer when winding down for the evening, choosing lighting that can be versatile is exactly what you need. 

Decor Styles

Décor also has a huge influence when creating the perfect atmosphere for getting glammed up. When choosing your décor, it allows you to put a personal stamp on the space, making it feel authentically you. 

If you are using your bedroom as a get-ready space, let your imagination run free when it comes to designing a theme. In the area you have carved out for your get-ready spot, you might consider adding patterned wallpaper or painting the walls in a bold colour to add glamour to the space. 

You may even want to embellish your chosen furniture with a gold-coloured handle or knob to make it even more glamorous. The opportunities are endless when styling your space and it allows you to get really creative.
