You want your space to be cozy and sensual and have some personality. These tips will help…and none require big bucks.
Candles aren't a surprise, but they're so perfect for creating a relaxing atmosphere that you can't skip them. Right now, lots of candles come in pretty jars that look nice. If you lean toward a more kitschy vibe, check out Aunt Sadie's candles. For something more chic, try Chesapeake Bay Candles.

Pick Up Knickknacks
A few well-placed funky items give your room personality. Hit up a thrift store or flea market to grab pretty much anything that catches your eye…like a bunch of cool vases.
Add a Punch of Color
The quickest way to change a room is by getting an area rug. It'll add a coziness to your space and look great at the end of your bed. And here's where you can make a real style statement by going with a bold shade — think bright orange or turquoise — instead of the more expected bedroom neutrals.
Show Off Chic Lighting
Framing your bed with a pair of sconces is not only functional, but it also makes your room look pulled-together. Put one on either side of your bed at a height you like. Tip: Find fixtures that mirror something else in your room. For example, if you have a metal bed frame or chair, buy metal sconces.
