Size up your doona
Bigger is better they say, and this is definitely the case when it comes to your doona. Sizing up your doona gives the bed that luxurious feel and looks amazing. When styling your doona, pull it down to the end and let it overhang until it nearly touches the ground.
You need to have a valance!
A valance gives your bed a polished showroom look, and it instantly covers those ugly bed bases. They come in different textures and quilted patterns, so it’s perfect for adding more texture and detail to your bed.
