A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE: HOW TO ACHIEVE A CLEAN AND CALM BEDROOM AESTHETIC The first thing any real estate agent will say you should do before listing your home is to declutter. But decluttering can be so much more than just “getting rid of junk.” A home with a clean aesthetic is relaxing, inviting and showcases all the things that make it great. So here’s a step-by-step guide on how to get the look – starting with your bedroom! • Step 1: Go white. Sure, painting your walls white and going with white bedding can seem impractical. But here’s the trick – white doesn’t mean pure white. In fact, off-white still looks bright and airy, but it is much easier to keep clean and hides little imperfections. • Step 2: Find furniture that has clean lines. Overly ornate furniture makes a space feel old-fashioned instead of fresh and modern. Furniture in a clean and calm bedroom should be light – both in colour and in weight. • Step 3: Don’t skimp on the bedding. If you want your bedroom to seem fresh as well as luxurious, splurge on some gorgeous bedding. The great news is that it will make your home feel irresistible to buyers, but you get to take your comfy bedding with you when you move. • Step 4: Breathe life into your room with plants and fresh flowers. One thing that sets a so-so room apart from a beautiful one is greenery. Add a mixture of some potted plants and some fresh-cut flowers in just a simple vase for a next-level type feeling. • Step 5: Strategically place baskets and decorative storage around your room. The true secret to having a clean, fresh space is no secret at all – you have to keep it clean. This step is made much easier if you give yourself plenty of places to store all the things you use on a daily basis. It’s an out of sight, out of mind kind of thing!

THIS WALLPAPER TREND IS MAKING WAVES

If you know anything about Japanese art, you’ve surely heard of Hokusai’s Great Wave off Kanagawa. Created in 1830, this gorgeous piece of art is still making waves today – most recently as a wallpaper print. From nurseries to kitchen backsplashes, wallpaper with swirling blue lines is showing up everywhere. While some of the prints are only a slight nod to Hokusai’s piece, others are near-perfect matches. If you love the Great Wave so much that nothing but the real thing will do, you can even purchase a wallpaper mural to create a stunning feature wall in your home. Whichever wave inspired wallpaper you choose, pair it with simple furniture and decor in order to give it space to shine. This style of wallpaper would work best in coastal styled homes or in spaces that need a bit of whimsy, such as children’s rooms or even bathrooms.
