Cozy bedroom ideas are kind of the best.

I mean you spend so much of your time in there. It’s where you begin and end your day, take time to read, and catch your breath. So creating a cozy bedroom that feels warm and inviting is a nice way of doing a bit of self-care.

You want to transform your space into something that feels like home. You want it to feel safe, lived-in, and cozy. You don’t want something cold and basic. And that’s why I’ve curated this list of cozy bedroom decor.

Each of these DIY ideas will give you that nice cozy feel and make your bedroom a welcoming space. So check them out and see which ones you’ll do this year.

I admit, this is probably my favorite idea on the list.

Strung lights are key to creating a warm aesthetic cozy bedroom. They give off a warm glow that gives you that cozy and inviting feel. Also, you can add a personal touch by hanging your photos from them.

Update: Product page on Urban Outfitters no longer exists, but you can find something similar here on Amazon.

2. Get a Faux Lamb Fur Throw Blanket

Another way to give your bedroom a cozy feel is textures. And a soft and cozy faux lamb fur blanket is a great option. You can drape it over your bed or on a chair and grab it when you wanna feel extra cozy.

3. Create a DIY Chair Hammock

I think hanging chairs are so deeply relaxing and a great addition for your bedroom. It’s where you can stop to think or even have a cozy reading session. Also, if you’re just trying to add a bit of whimsy to your life, then a hanging chair might just be your answer.

Floating shelves can be so versatile and great for giving your room that homey, cozy feel. You can put a small soft light, candles, books, and/or cute houseplants on them. There are so many ways you can rearrange things on a floating shelf, and they don’t take up any floor or wall space.

7. Glow in the Dark Star Stickers

I feel like this cozy bedroom decor idea gives you that nice warm, nostalgic feel. Like when you were a kid and had glow in the dark stick-on stars on your ceiling and walls. Except now it just a bit more elevated (but still fun).

Pillows are the best way to change up a room for the new season. And nothing is more soft and warm than a super soft, cozy pillow. So if you wanna give your room that cozy feel, then putting lots of pillows (and trying a cute DIY design) is probably your answer.
