Pesky Problem
The bed in your Airbnb just looks a little flat.
You’re not quite sure what’s off, but when you look at the bed in your Airbnb, it just isn’t as appealing as you’d like. You want to welcome your guests with a beautiful, fluffy bed that invites a relaxing belly flop upon arrival. But right now, the whole scene just looks a bit stale. If you fall in this camp, or perhaps interior design isn’t your strong suit, don’t worry. This is an easy fix with a simple formula that will upgrade those mediocre beds in a snap.
Let's Try This
Bite-Size Solution
Aim for seven unique layers and display them all.
When it comes to creating a truly inviting bed, the key is layers. You’ve got lots of options: bed skirts, headboards, sheets, duvets, quilts, throws blankets, pillows, accent pillows, maybe even a pillow mint. If you’re looking for a good rule of thumb, aim for seven unique layers or textures. Then when you actually make the bed, strive to show off all those layers. That means pulling back the covers so that each unique layer can be seen. Not only does this create visual depth, it allows guests to see how clean and inviting those underlying layers look. Any nerves about bedtime will vanish at first glance.
