Autumn is on its way, time to give your bedroom a de-clutter!

Whilst thankfully over the last few weeks, the warmer summer weather has seemed to have made a re-appearance, it is becoming quickly apparent that Autumn is only a few weeks away.

The great aspect about September is that it can feel a little bit like giving yourself a restart, following the recent months of holidays, and juggling home life along with enjoying time with the kids or grandkids. September gives us chance to free up time and to take stock of having a sort out at home, including doing some DIY, and making the most of the time whilst the evenings are still light, and the weather is good.

So, this month, here at Cush Cush we are focusing on how we can give our bedroom a de-clutter and freshen up, in preparation for the Autumn season ahead. The question is where to start?!

Ideas on how to give a bedroom a de-clutter

• Sort out the summer clothes – Source some good storage by using boxes which will sit nicely under the bed or make a feature on top of your wardrobes with some pretty baskets. Use vacuum-pack bags to reduce space and fold away any summer clothes which you know that you won’t use during the winter months.
• Set up a charity bag – If you haven’t worn it this year or last, then there’s a good chance that the top or dress that you have been storing in your wardrobe, might have had it’s time with you. Set aside a charity bag ready to add to, as your sort through your clothes.Furthermore, sort out your belongings by clearing out any old makeup and brushes. And those Christmas presents that you’ve never used and add them into the charity bag too. This will help you to feel more organised and give your possessions space to access.
• Give your bedroom a deep clean – Pull out the bed, the wardrobes and the units and give everything a thorough clean by vacuuming under the furniture and wiping around the skirting boards. Finally, vacuum the mattress and give it a turn.
• Consider what you might like to freshen up – Is that picture on the wall or vase of dried flowers looking a bit tired? By replacing them with some contemporary touches you can begin to lift the style of the interior and give it a fresh appeal.
• Add some warmth with roman blinds – Roman blinds not only enhance a window but will also help to keep the heat in, as we move into the autumn months. Choose a fabric pattern and colour which will really set of the interior design of your room and make a statement.
• Swap over your light summer quilt for a thicker option – With the cooler months just around the corner, having a thicker quilt on your bed is ideal to increase warmth whilst you sleep. Choose something which is breathable and feels soft to touch, for ultimate comfort.
• Complete the room with a quilted bedspread – Hand-made by Cush Cush we manufacture custom quilted bedspreads for all bed sizes including super-king size, king-size, double, and single beds.
