If melting of winter snow combined with the warmer temps has you in full-on nesting-mode in your home, join the party! Let’s start with a renovation of the bedroom to make it look like a page from Architectural Digest Magazine. Or from a HGTV episode. Or a Pin-worthy-cozy-chic image.

Sharing some simple bedroom makeover solutions on how to quickly and easily renovate your sleeping space. From pro-decor tips of major designers to THE most comfortable solutions for a peaceful night’s sleep, your bedroom will feel like a relaxing, cozy chic bedroom oasis in no time (kitty not included!)

5 Ways to UPGRADE your Bedroom to Cozy, Chic!
1. Mattress Makeover
Beauty sleep is real, y’all. Scientists found that faces of well-rested people look younger than sleep deprived people. And – aren’t we also much happier when we are well-rested? So – if we sleep well we look better and are nicer. Maybe it’s time to upgrade that mattress, huh? Let’s be SO good at sleeping that we can do it with our eyes closed (haha…get it?). Consider Leesa® for your best beauty sleep- here’s why…

UNBOX – POSITIION – UNWRAP – EXPAND
The Leesa® mattress arrives to your front door in a box. Really. So simple. All you need to do to set it up is unbox it, position it on your bed, unwrap the plastic and allow it to expand into shape. I had my doubts (let’s be honest here)… but this mattress is (not even kidding) BEYOND cozy. A medium firmness level because of the layers of foam in the mattress. Super snuggly and (BIG bonus here) do NOT wake me ever when my hubs flips/flops around. Whaaaaat? #MindBlown
Use code GLAMKAREN for $75 off the Leesa mattress, y’all!

2. Be Frond of Plants
Plants, in the bedroom, look pretty. Have you seen the top-trending Instagram bedroom decor photos? Plants a-Plenty! But – besides the “look” of plants, they also (scientifically) do much more! Plants refresh the air in that room, help you breath easier, increase the humidity in the air, purify the air, and improve your health. No green thumb? No problem. Try Aloe, Spider Plants, Jade Plants, Rubber Trees or Diffenbachia. All GORGEOUS greens, all easy to take care of.
3. Light a Candle
Turn down the lights….and light a candle. The difference is cray. Calming, relaxing, spa-like. Gentle flickering of a flame with a swoon-worthy scent (lavender is known for relaxation) creates a chic and cozy vibe to unwind. Bonus- candles come in the most fashionable holders today – have you seen? Once the wax melts down, clean it out and repurpose it as a holder for makeup brushes!
4. Cozy Up Under a Blanket
The key to cozy is to have luxurious, ultraplush blankets for your bed. Be like Linus from Peanuts and follow your heart to that blanket of your dreams (literally). Love is like a warm blanket. You know it’s true. Do not SKIMP on a blanket for your bed. Lighten up the layers, and snuggle in with a comforter, quilt and even a pom-pom throw.
5. Reading Nook
Too many books or not enough shelves? Snuggling into your cozy, comfortable bed with your fluffy blankets and puffy pillows is the perfect place to escape into a book. Something really magical happens when you read a good book. Just one more chapter… and you will doze off into deep dreams. Go ahead – read past your bedtime.

My bedroom is EXACTLY the same as it was when I moved into my house 15 years ago. I am SO overdue for a makeover. You have some awesome ideas here.
Thanks for reminding all of us that we need to get creative with our homes. We often neglect this part and now that I think of it, it is so important for bringing a fresh perspective.
I definitely need a makeover, my room is well overdue. I will take your idea’s on board, thanks for the blog post!
we got a new bed a few years ago I wanted to get one of the foam mattress types but my husband was dead set on a sleep number. I’m not overly impressed with the sleep number bed but if it makes my husband happy that’s great and I’m still able to get the foam topper that we put on top of the bed to make it to my comfort level .
I have always wanted a reading nook. Also thank you for the mattress referrals we need a new mattress so bad.
Wow that is a gorgeous bedroom. Candles and plants are what I’m all about! Oh, and good bedding!
My husband and I are so picky when it comes to mattresses, we will soon be in the market for a new one and it makes me so nervous ha! I totally agree with you on comfy blankets and candles…those are the essentials.
We just got a new mattress and it was long overdue but didn’t know about Leesa at the time. Your makeover bedroom looks so good and if I were a cat I would love it just as much as yours does.
We could REALLY use a mattress upgrade! I think having soft, comfortable pillows are very important too if you want your bedroom space to be truly cozy.
Our bedroom needs a makeover badly. Literally been in the house 15 years and only just bought new curtains earlier this year!
Man your kitty just needs to be in my house immediately so cute . I definitely need a new mattress as mine is super uncomfortable and Leesa sounds great x
A good mattress is so important. I love how that one comes packaged, seems super easy to “install.” Great decor!
I love having candles going in the bedroom. And this reminds me that I am in need of a mattress.
That is a great price to makeover your mattress! I am going to have to check out the Leesa products. Plus if I can get more beauty sleep to help me look younger then it is a win win! 🙂
Your home looks wonderful, I love all your home decor posts! And your kitty is the cutest cat on the internet! The mattress looks well comfy, ours is from IKEA and it’s not the greatest so as soon as we’re saying goodbye to it (hopefully not too long to go haha) I’ll check these out x
loving this! We are re-doing our bedroom and most of the house and I have been looking for some inspo! This is just what I needed – Although I think your gorgeous kitty helps haha!
Our bedroom is cozy (small) but definitely not chic! Yours looks woderful! we did recently get a new mattress which i am excited about 🙂
I love how you styled your nightstand! I will definitely have to take some tips from that in my own bedroom! <3
That does look cosy! I really love the bed as well! I really need to redo my room, it has been lacking.
My bedroom seriously needs a huge makeover. Right now, it’s the farthest thing from cozy. I love your ideas, and that new mattress sounds awesome!
I think it is important to establish a cozy-up center! I like you include a reading nook.
Plus, I do think it should start with the mattress, as it really is the origin of it all.
I lovethe fragrance of essential oils in my bedroom. Light, cool colored walls and decor too.
I love what you did with that space! It’s so calming and serene. Perfect for a bedroom!
I love your bedroom, it seriously is so cozy and pretty! I love your side desk.
I am getting ready to redo the master bedroom and can’t wait to change up the walls! We recently just bought a new mattress so we are good there but the cozy blankets I’m ready for. Your bedroom is beautiful!
I have just updated our guest room with new bedding and I need new lamps. I’ll keep this mattress in mind when I need to replace the mattress.
Seriously a new mattress can make all the difference! This sounds like a great option! I would love to redo our bedroom.
Love your simple yet very effective tips to create a styplish space in the bedroom. I certainly make my bedroom a private and quaint abode to dwell.
Great tips and I have been hearing about this mattress. I think it’s sooo important to have one that is comfy.
It does look cozy in there! I love these simple tips. They are easy enough for everyone to do today.
I’m the worst sleeper. I’ve tried all kinds of things sadly. I love your bedroom makeover, especially the idea of incorporating plants into a room since they have so many benefits for the air. I also adore the round nightstand you have. It is so chic.
My bedroom could totally use a lift! I really love the look of that nightstand.
I totally agree that the mattress is the first step to a successful bedroom renovation. We really should invest in a good quality bed because sleep is really important for overall health wellness. Leesa Mattress sounds really lovely! I will definitely check them out.
Thanks for all your great ideas! I haven’t been sleeping very well, and I’ve been considering a mattress like the Leesa. Thanks for the review. It was so cute to see that your beautiful kitty seems to like the new mattress also. 🙂
