The Secret to a Restful Retreat


 


YOU SPEND MOST OF YOUR TIME IN THE BEDROOM with your eyes closed, so you might think it doesn’t matter what it looks like. Think again.

A recent survey found that 73% of respondents with tidy bedrooms reported sleeping well, compared to only 53% of those with messy rooms. And insomnia experts say that physical clutter causes mental clutter. Solution: declutter and streamline so your room really does feel like a sanctuary.





To do that, emphasize storage and quality over a quick fix. Say goodbye to plastic boxes under the bed and hello to under bed drawers. Storage beds offer a beautiful way to hide linens and extras out of sight and options abound. Opt for high-waisted dressers and chests with more drawers for more storage. Bedside tables tend to become dumping grounds for all sorts of clutter, so choose one with a drawer to tuck away charging cords and paraphernalia to inspire calm.





Quality adds crucial peace of mind too. Look for details such as ball bearing drawer glides, cedar and felt-lined drawers, upgraded finishes and more. Additionally, our Amish line begins with 100% solid wood and includes floating top panels, English dovetailed drawer boxes, sanded and stained drawer interiors, and pressure cast aluminum corner brackets on all beds for extra durability.





Once you’ve nailed those details, it’s time for the fun style part. Earthy tones and darker wood stains are in, as are style curves, two-tone color, and design details that are reflected in all pieces of a set. Choose from traditional classics such as a sleigh bed or sleek modern design in a platform bed, and everything in between for a peaceful night.





Your brain and body, which need solid nightly sleep to function, will thank you.
