Six simple ways to transform your bed

Transforming your bedroom space to be more reflective of you doesn’t have to mean an excessive overhaul. With some small and sustainable updates, it’s easy to set the tone for your own unique sanctuary with a bed that feels truly you. Here, Bemz’s Head of Product Filippa Bonde shares her six top ways to achieve this.

1. LAYER ON BLANKETS

The hero of your bedroom story is, of course, your bed. Minimalist, sultry, flamboyant… the bedding you choose is a visual expression of you. Layering on a bedspread or blanket is an elegantly simple way to make your statement. Our range in muslins and linens create a texture that looks and feels divine. Perfect an effortless vibe by simply draping a bedspread or blanket over your covers. To recreate a hotel finish, fold your bedspread and tuck it neatly across the lower end of the bed.

2. EMBRACE A BEDSKIRT

Bedskirts are having a revival and instantly add more personality to your bed. Practically, they’re an easy way to hide underbed storage and drawers. Our tailored straight drape is ideal for a chic, streamlined look. As it’s fitted, patterns really pop on this style. Want something softer and a little more elegant? Our Box Pleat or Loose Fit Country options may be more you. Choose from universal sizes and fits for IKEA beds with various skirt heights and fabrics that express you.

With just a few thoughtful touches, you can completely transform your bedroom to reflect your unique personality and style. Our latest collection brings together an array of elegant yet practical items, including universal spring mattress covers, headboard covers, furniture legs, bedspreads, throws and cushions - all designed to make a big impact with minimal effort.

3. SWITCH UP YOUR HEADBOARD

One of the first things our eyes are drawn to when we enter our bedroom is the headboard. And it’s something that can be updated quickly. The beauty of choosing a new headboard cover from Bemz is that with endless fabric and print possibilities, it can be as unique as you. Plush velvet, cool cotton, playful candy stripes..? It’s your call. Feel inspired by covers for Ikea ARNAVIK, ABELVÄR, BÅDALEN headboards, plus universal multi-fit and chunkier wadded covers.

4. PILE ON CUSHIONS

Cushions are instant mood makers, as well as being beautifully individual reflections of you. But why stop at square cushion covers? Accessorise with double bolsters, spherical and flat round cushions to capture that hotel room feel into your home. Mix and match textures and tones to create your own cosy atmosphere and add a new layer of sophistication to your space.

5. COVER YOUR MATTRESS

Bridging the gap between a sheet and mattress protector, a stylish mattress cover gives the bottom of your bed a more unified and modern look. With so many fabrics and textures to choose from you can effortlessly create your signature style. Go for a subtle neutral or a showy print to make your humble mattress more you. We have covers for day beds too. Choose the style for you in many universal sizes and fits for IKEA models.

6. UPGRADE YOUR LEGS

Legs may seem like a small thing, but changing your bed legs can really make a big impact. We have a range of high-quality Scandinavian wooden furniture legs to suit your style. Which ones perfectly express you? Will it be light, cylindrical, tall or dark?
