Use atmospheric lighting to set the scene

Create mood lighting in your bedroom for an atmospheric look

Here's how to get the look:

  • Create an eye-catching effect above your bedhead by pushing fairy lights through the holes of carved panels

  • Get creative with soft lighting in your bedroom, but add a brighter task light if you like to read in bed

  • Keep the backdrop plain so the feature lighting is the main focal point

  • Patterned carpet is a great way to add interest to a bedroom with plain walls

Shop for the look:
