The rug advice and the circumference of the chandelier were helpful tips. One note about lighting: candle light or 'warm light' is actually what the human eye/body would benefit from in the bedroom. White/blue-focused light is detrimental to end-of-day biochemistry. It disrupts production of melatonin and increases cortisol which poses an issue for sleep.

I counted, I have 9 mirrors in my bedroom😬I need to fix it😵💫
-
Thank you Kiva. I have been binge watching your and Nick Lewis’ channel to get new inspiration and ideas.
-
Hahhah your mirror comment is so spot on! The person who owned our house before us put a floor to ceiling mirror across an entire wall in the bedroom. To get rid of it we have to destroy the wall. It is so awful lol. Also my cat likes to stand on me in the middle of the night to admire herself
-
They didn’t like reading by candlelight, so they invented electricity. 🤣🤣🤣 Jokes aside, excellent tips, Kiva! Agree with you on family pics in the bedroom. I find that framed family photos on the wall also seem a bit funereal and should be reserved for our deceased loved ones. Photos of the living seem better placed on tables, consoles, and other flat tops. I know most won’t agree with this; it’s just a quirk of mine.
-
Thank you for this. My dresser has a large mirror and I want a floor mirror but didn't want too many. I didn't think of removing the mirror. That's a great idea!
-
I love this! I am also anti family photos because why would I want to look at my dad or great grandparents in any intimate space in my home…no just no lol.
-
Design it in a day?! I freaken love this idea! Help me get out of my limbo 😅 thank you, Kiva!

I'm with the no mirror in the bedroom crowd. The last thing I need to do is scare myself if I get up in the middle of the night.
-
I use runners as I have totes under the bed. The totes just fit straight under as is. Way to maximize storage.
-
Dressing the Bed . I like the look of a tailored bed skirt, however, being single and having a dog, they seem to get messed upped and grungy quickly. I use a coordinating fitted sheet to cover my box spring. For the end of the bed, in warmer months, a table runner can look lovely for a bit more pizazz. I also prefer to use a twin size quilt layered a the foot of the bed instead of a throw.
-
I don’t have one mirror in my bedroom area only dressing area. And I do agree, they zap energy from the space I prefer items that make me feel relaxed and serve a purpose.
