HOW TO STYLE A BED LIKE A DESIGNER! 🛏️ Budget Friendly + Easy to Recreate! (4 DIY Bed Ideas)

[Music] hello guys Drew here from Lone Fox and today we are focusing on beds because a couple years back I actually did a video where I styled a bed for different ways and it's one of my most viewed videos here on the channel so I wanted to go ahead and kind of do an updated version because I will definitely tell you that my bed styling and some of the tips and tricks things I'm going to be sharing with you on pattern mixing color everything relating into making a bed has changed over the years of course some things have definely stayed but there are some things I've picked up I want to share with you guys and just new ways and styles I feel like beds are constantly evolving into so why don't we just go ahead and dive on into our first look for this first bed we are going to be recreating the one that I actually have on my bed since I've redone my room and I love the look of this one it's actually a great way to kind of highlight any of those vintage textiles or quilt or pieces of fabric or bedding pieces that are a little bit more rough and itchy that you don't really love because it's more of like a Topper to our bed so I started off with a simple sheet set from casaluna this is just like a linen one I love it so much I've had it for years now actually and then on top of that I'm actually adding a KingSize duvet with this kind of like amber colored linen duvet cover over top and once I have this on the reason I'm using a king to is because it really hangs over all the sides nicely if you've wondered how designers got that extra kind of fluffy duvet look they're definitely using a king or multiple duvet in the duvet cover now here is the star of the show everyone asks where I got this from and sadly I can't link it because it's actually an antique textile from France I got this from Olive atier and it is a little rough it's a little itchy I'm not going to lie it's could be a wall hangy it could be a rug but I love it on my bed and the thing is I have it at the end of the bed on top of my duvet cover and then I pulled back the duvet a little bit to kind of encase that top section too so that your Skin's not really ever touching that area but you really get that high impact from that piece of vintage Fabric and in the back I'm layering two sets of helix's dream pillows I love their pillows they are so fluffy they look so perfectly styled on a bed at all times and they're great to sleep with as well so that's a huge plus and then just a little pillow in the center this one's from Pearson Ward just to kind of finish it out and add a little bit more pattern but I love the way that this highlights any vintage textile maybe an old quilt but I really feel like this stretches the possibilities with beding so much because there's so much vintage that is just incredible that you can add as a Topper to your bed but of course the foundation to any incredible bed is the mattress and today's video is kindly sponsored by Helix because I have been using and had this exact Helix mattress you see here for years probably like a little over 4 years now Marie has one my parents have one and Helix just is a no-brainer when it comes to purchasing a mattress they offer a sleep quiz is because I feel like going out and like laying on a bunch of different mattresses it still doesn't give you an idea of what you want to sleep on long term and Helix has a great sleep quiz that actually allows you to take it pairs you up with a mattress and you have a 100 days sleep trial so if it's something that you're not really loving after 100 days they'll come right to your house and pick it up the reason this is great is because it actually gets shipped to you in a box which is so convenient I love that about Helix it arrives on your doorstep in a box you bring it in and it literally turns itself into the most incredible thickest fluffiest mat mess you are going to sleep on plus Helix also includes a 10-year warranty which is incredible and they offer different financing options and flexible payment plans because mattresses are a larger purchase so having that financing is really nice I think I've unboxed over 10 mattresses from them at this point and every single one has been topnotch perfect and if you're in the market for a new mattress definitely take advantage of my offer for you guys you can get 20% off your Helix mattress plus two free pillows using my link which is helixsleep.com drewscott it's also at the top of the description box below but let's go ahead and dive on into some more bed styling for our second bed I wanted to do one that you have probably seen from your favorite designers all over Instagram if you have a designer that's more on the minimal side I feel like this bedding style has definitely been in their kind of Realm lately and I love it I think it's so beautiful it looks great it photographs great as well so I actually started off with the same sheet set and then on top of that I actually like to add a really thin duvet this is just a queen-size duvet from Target a really thin one to be honest I'm someone that likes a little bit of substance on top of me while I'm sleeping like I don't just want a sheet I'm so sorry I see so many beds like this and I just think to myself like it's just one piece of fabric but this at least has a little bit of cushion in between the bed cover is actually from culiver goods and that is really what creates the look of this because this is made for this style you really do probably need something like a bed cover that's what you would actually look up and this one I borrowed from my friend Ethan he actually has a YouTube channel here um I will link it below for you guys he's great and I borrowed this has some really cool bedding he always has the best bedding so borrow this for the video and I think it looks stunning on the bed it's like a white oversized linen bed cover and I added two simple pillows in the back just tucked the fabric under and around the pillows and that's what really gives it the look of kind of that Designer effortless simple casual feel a bolster pillow on the back and then just a waffle cloth kind of blanket on the front that was from Target and in the end Clips I actually ended up styling with a different bolster pillow and shooting it just to give you a little variety but I I think this looks so beautiful and this really in the end Clips you can kind of see the style of this bedding and how it feels a little bit more effortless kind of casual and lived in but I will say it is a little bit more challenging to achieve that perfect look because you really want this bedding to lay nicely but once you have it in place I can also kind of see it staying put so I don't think it would be too much to like fix it up each [Music] day here we are at Bed number three and I really wanted to focus Fus on pattern play in this one and I kind of have like a rule of thumb when I do bding and pattern play and that is that I'm going to do one large scale pattern which as you can see is going to be our quilt here I'm going to do a small scale pattern and a stripe and then from there you can kind of incorporate anything else that you want so I started off with just the same Stripes sheet set I honestly used it for all four beds because it was just easiest and it's my favorite sheet set ever and then I added an Amber Interiors quilt on top that was my little Splurge piece last year I love it though it is so stunning and because I want those layers to show I actually folded the duvet in half and added it to the end of the bed that way when you get into bed at the end of the day you would just essentially kind of pull up the duvet that's folded over get under everything and you're good to go so on the back here I actually did two pillows on either side just to layer it up and I did the cream in the back and then the stripes in the front just to bring the stripe a little bit more forward again we're adding two large scale patterns in front but we are still missing our small scale pattern which is actually going to be coming from the pillow that we're going to be adding right in front of that which is a little checkerboard pillow which incorporates a little bit of a geometric small scale pattern Winston had to come take a look and of course he loved it and this is how this bed turned out something I realized when I filmed this is that I wish I did have some more pattern duvet options because I probably would have popped a patterned small scale duvet cover on the duvet at the end of the bed just to incorporate even more pattern to this and that is how I would have rounded out this bed I think it looks stunning though overall and I hope that pattern mixing tip with the stripes a large scale and a small scale can kind of come in handy when playing around with patterns and for the last bed style I really wanted to play around with a neutral bed because I know a lot of people love neutral calming beds I do too as well but I wanted to make it really interesting and share with you how you can kind of amplify just monotone beds a little bit so I actually started off first with the sheet set here again a simple stripe it almost reads as a solid because of how tone on tone it is and I'm also having kind of the fold over section at the top be a little bit more casual and not as structured as like the sheets tucked in and stuff like that so once that is added I'm going to be popping our pillows up at the top section as well and I have these ruffly pillow covers which again adds a little bit more texture and dimension to a neutral bed so these are from Lulu and Georgia I'll link them for you guys they're so cool and they come in a bunch of different sizes too so you can even get Euro sizes like that and I ended up layering in front of those actually these darker brown ones because I felt like the bed was still going super flat with the monochrome look so I just wanted to add a little bit of contrast so varying tones is another way to just create a little bit more interest in your bed if you like one color just vary the tone slightly and it will create a bit of Dimension and just a bit more visual interest to your bed space and I was really loving the direction of how everything was looking but I did step back and realize the top of the bed was just a little bit too heavy like the bottom was quite light so I wanted to add a bit more texture down here just to kind of even it all out so I added on top of it a blanket this is just a simple ivory blanket and whenever I add blankets on beds like this and I want a little bit of texture I just go through and kind of just crumple it a little bit like that and you go on either side and you kind of pull them almost so it creates this rouched just lived in feel and that is kind of the base of the bed towards the bottom I added on top of it this leather throw pillow which I kind of feel like totally rounds out the ju position of creating an interesting monotone bed the leather mixed with the Ruffles mixed with kind of the Gauzy material on the top blanket it's just a really fun mix of textures that makes a simple color palette really fun and [Music] interesting and that concludes how to style a bed like a designer I wanted to share with you guys some of my favorite ways that I've recently been styling beds not claiming to be a professional designer I just wanted to share with you a couple different tips and tricks and you can even pull and kind oft ex ract things from different beds in this video put them together to make your very own bed but I hope that you learned a styling tip or two or maybe even 17 from this video and if you did let me know in the comment section below which was your favorite bed and of course everything I did share in this video will also be linked in the description box so definitely check out there if
