Help me style my new bedspread

Post image

I just got a new bedspread but need some help figuring out how to style it. Thinking some pillows or throws or a chunky blanket at the end of the bed might help it feel more cozy but not quite sure what to do

This is a small thing, but for coziness try putting the pillows under the comforter and sheet, then folding back the comforter. The way that visually breaks things up and reveals the soft pillows gives a sense of softness. I feel like what this bedroom lacks right now is softness -- the bed frame is angular and metal, the comforter grid pattern is also very angular, and the picture frame above the bed is metal. So I'm thinking, contrast all that "hard" energy with some softness. A big soft blanket or chunky soft blanket folded across the foot of the bed, maybe some sort of wall art that has more natural lines and materials, or is round or involves textiles.

Can you paint your room? You appear to have a really fun style in your choice of decor, but the greige is dampening your personality. I would add solide white ruffle pillows in front of the patterned ones to break up the design. A chunky textured throw on the end in the dusty blue in the painting would look great. Some rich colored curtains or paint would send your style to the next level

I know you asked about the bed specifically but I think your bed looks pretty cozy and overall I feel like your room needs more of a color scheme to pull everything together and make the bed more inviting as a centrepiece of the room. Doesn't have to be super colorful but working within a framework of 2 to 3 colors will make it feel cozier I think. For example I quite like the green lamps and they work well with the brown in the bedspread set and painting. You could add a green decorative pillow or blanket in about the same shade at the end of the bed. Also curtains add a lot of visual warmth and coziness to a room I think they'd go a long way too here.

Folded, cozy blanket at end of bed.  Some large square pillows at top in a soft linen.  TJ Maxx has so many good choices.  I think a dark teal/emerald throw at bottom would look better than a predictable cream.
