I feel I have accomplished this in my room; I had it redecorated last year.
It's a calming, deep purple colour with light wooden furniture, a beige carpet and white frames and shelves to keep it from being overwhelming. On the walls I have a giant picture frame with pictures of my loved ones and inspirational or motivational quotes in it, a Harry Potter framed quote, and in my little floating cube shelves I have Lego figures of Harry Potter characters.
On my chest of drawers I have another Harry Potter framed quote, a little photo holder with a old photograph of me and the family dogs from about 23 years ago, and another frame with a picture of my nephew inside it.
Above my bed, hanging over my stained glass window I have a dream-catcher, and a little plaque which was a gift from my sister, reminding me to make today a better day.
I chose my bedding to match my room, purples and whites; and they seem to feature feathers, which to me are calming.
My TV is set up with Netflix and Now TV so I can binge-watch films and shows from my bed, my decorative cushions prop me up so I'm all cosy and they give my room an added touch when I'm not using them.
My room is my sanctuary, my safe place. It's filled with positivity, it has things to grab your eye without being too cluttered, the colour scheme isn't too bold or too bright or too dark; in fact as soon as I find a lampshade I like, it will be perfect.
Tonight I ventured into the front room with my duvet and watched Harry Potter in there, which made a nice change. But now I'm safely back in my bed and about to log off and hopefully visit the land of nod.
