How Important is Your Bedroom Set to You?

How Important is Your Bedroom Set to You?

How important is your bed for you? Now, how important is it to have a matching bedroom set? It may not be a big deal to some people and it may be bigger for others. One thing is always true, though; your bed needs to feel comfortable for you. Sleep is important and a large part of human existence. Most sleep specialists suggest 7-9 hours of sleep for adults and the number climbs, the younger you are. Since you are spending so much time in bed, your mattress and bed frame need to make you feel good. Losing sleep leads to all sorts of health problems that can limit your potential in life. From headaches and body aches to memory loss, high blood pressure, and lack of concentration, you may not be living your best life if you don't sleep well. 

Bedroom Furniture Placement

"Why does my furniture need to match?", you may ask yourself. It doesn't have to, for sure, but you must never overlook the effect that aesthetics can have on your sub-conscience. Consider this for one second; colors and placement can have an impact on our feelings. It's scientifically proven that a clean and tidy room will allow for a more restful night. So, if that environment can have an impact on your quality of rest, it may be nice to have matching furniture in your bedroom. The idea is that the more comfortable you are while in your bedroom, the better your sleep can be when you nod off at night. You may or may not have heard of Feng Shui and how the placement of items in a room can affect your mood and other things. Some people dismiss it as superstition and I understand how they could feel that way. I, however, think that there is no harm in arranging your room in a way that makes you happy.

The Bookcase and the Hidden door

Just Pull the Secret Book

Doors hidden behind bookcases have been used in all kinds of media from episodes of Scooby-Doo to Stephen King books. When it comes to this commonly used device in stories, it may feel trite to some, but to others, it still holds its mystique. I happen to be one that still loves the novel idea of a hidden door in movies and books even if it may be a bit cheesy. I've always thought about how I would use a secret door and the only practical place in my home to put one would be at the entrance to the master bedroom's walk-in closet. Then, the more I think about it, the more I fear the novelty of it would wear off as time goes on. Plus, some people might think I actually am hiding some secret behind the door.  Like I said, it's a novel idea and I do own enough books that I could fill several doors. 

Practical Bookcases

If you are like me and you aren't a fan of having digital books, then you may have too many physical ones around your house. I even bought a headboard for my bed that is partially a bookcase. It holds about 40 books and it is full. I found myself having to put a lot of my collection into boxes and into storage. When I came to the realization that I would most likely never get the books back out of storage and read them again, I decided to do something about it. I decided to buy some bookcases and display my favorite books and series. Because I still lacked enough room for my entire collection, I donated the ones I decided I could live without to the local library. One of my friends suggested I sell them on eBay but I didn't want to deal with that. Besides, I want as many local people as possible to read these same books.
