As any of the Starks would tell you<\/a>, winter is coming. To prep for the coldest months of the year, it’s time to make a few key changes to your bedroom. From painting your walls a different color to swapping your sheets, we’ve got all your winter bedroom needs covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to create a cozy winter bedroom<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Here are five tips for making over your bedroom this season so that it looks\u2014and feels\u2014cozier all winter long.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Refresh your bedroom colors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Winter is the perfect time to repaint your bedroom. Cool tones, like blue, have been shown to help you relax<\/a>. It makes sense, given that blue is associated with soothing images like the sky and ocean. Green, which is associated with nature, also promotes zen. Neutral shades like taupe, beige, and gray, muted tones, and pastel hues are calming as well. Once you’ve picked a color scheme, move on to updating the rest of your bedroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Layer your bedding<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The most important aspect of your winter bedroom would, of course, be your bed. Keep in mind that the optimal temperature for sleep, according to the National Sleep Foundation<\/a>, is 60\u00b0 and 67\u00b0 Fahrenheit, so don’t crank up your heat as high as it can go. The best way to ensure you’re comfortable while you sleep is to layer, layer, layer. That way you can add or take things away as needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
