Totally textured  

It’s no secret that layering is great for creating texture, but did you know it’s also perfect for hiding all your under bed clutter? Choose a linen bed skirt for a crisp, woven finish, with low-key natural tones for an understated elegance. Add bedspread upon bedspread to complete the style. And you can always keep spare sheets hidden with all that extra under bed storage!

Natural, Nordic style.

We love this look created by Swedish home stylist Pella Hedeby. The minimalist, mineral-inspired greys nail the natural Nordic trend perfectly – (it is what she’s known for, after all!) Plus, the straight bed skirt creates a slate effect so stone-solid, you’d be forgiven for thinking there isn’t any storage under the bed at all!

Dramatic bedspreads

Perfect for adding a dose of drama to your decor, an oversized bedspread will flow over the sides of your bed skirt for a sophisticated style that’s teeming with attitude. Rich brooding greens pair up perfectly with natural oatmeal browns, and create an eye-catching feature-piece. Not to mention, your infamous shoe collection is cleverly hidden away thanks to all that extra storage underneath.

Effortlessly elegant, pleated bed skirts come in classic and box pleat-style – perfect for creating a traditional or eclectic look. The pleats make under bed storage even easier to access due to the natural folds in the fabric. Available in a bright, bold range of colours, this makes them especially good at hiding clutter in kids bedrooms.
