Pia’s Picks: spice up your bed

I like many things, but my apartment can’t fit them all. So, many products end up in my watch list instead of my shopping cart. This time it’s the ultimate tuning parts for your bed.
Some people swap their old bed for an entirely new one when they get in a new relationship. No joke. It’s typically involuntary; their new partner may not want to sleep in the same bed as their old lover. So go the stories I hear from my friends who work in interior design. It’s a bit weird and wasteful in my eyes.
A new set of bed linen will also provide the needed breath of fresh air. Or, even better, a new headboard. It’ll give you the necessary change of scenery and improve comfort. In fact – new lover or not – I advocate all beds are treated to a fresh headboard every now and then.
Headboard art
Headboards look especially great in studio apartments. They frame the bed and side tables, delineating the sleeping zone. And who wouldn’t rather snuggle up to a cosy surface like rattan, leather or wood instead of a bare, cold wall?
Dreamy comfort
Go for a padded headboard to lie and sit comfortably as you read or engage in pillow talk and other physical activities. Most models are made of natural materials. The best way to care for rattan headboards is to spray them with water every now and then. Fabric covers, on the other hand, can be removed for washing – a big plus for people with allergies.
