How To Hygge Your Bedroom For Better Sleep And Cozy Nights

Wondering how to up the cozy factor of your room with minimal effort? Now more than ever before, it’s important to figure out a way to make our homes our happy place, and thankfully, there’s a quick way to accomplish just this - hygge.

When we talk about hygge bedroom ideas, warm lighting, scented candles, big cups of cocoa, as well as throws and blankets as far as the eye can see all come to mind.

The Danish word hygge (pronounced hue-gah) loosely translates to the concept of coziness and togetherness. Hygge is most often thought of as a practice for the winter and holiday season, which means now is the perfect time to think about how you can get your bedroom looking a little cozier for the season.

Here’s everything you need to know about how to decorate with the word hygge in mind:

Make Your Bed Before You Leave The House

For a room to really embody the full spirit of hygge, it needs to have a cozy, well-layered bed, with the best mattress for a good night’s sleep. Aesthetics play a key role in creating a cozy vibe, so a well-made bed will guarantee your bedroom has an inviting look and feel.

Have Your Favorite Cup Of Coffee Ready

The reason it’s called hygge in the first place is that the focus remains on what brings you joy, whether that means comfort food in the form of shortbread, a large steaming cup of tea, or something else. Get a mug you love and your favorite hot drink on standby, and cozy up to a book as you get ready to wind down.

Add Layers Of Texture

Using multiple textures, patterns, and sticking to neutral tones will give your bed the scandi-chic vibe that hygge decor celebrates. The Puffy Blanket might just be the perfect embodiment of hygge. If you’re looking for an extra touch of coziness, nothing beats dual-sided faux fur and plush velvet materials, with soft pastel tones that guarantee your hygge bedroom will look as good as it feels. 

Use Candles For Natural Warm Light

One of the simplest and most popular ways to set up a hygge bedroom decor is through the use of candles. Using familiar, comforting scents or even unscented candles can help create an atmosphere that is naturally warm, inviting, and perfect for the wintertime, when the sun goes down a little earlier than we’re all used to.

With the help of these simple tips, your hygge bedroom comfort will keep you cozy all winter.

Happy decorating!
