Change your bedclothes to this colour for a good night’s sleep

good night's sleep

As mamas know, sleep isn’t always easy to come by and when you get an opportunity to rest, it’s very welcomed.

Of course, it’s beyond frustrating when sleep evades you and you’re absolutely wrecked after an exhausting day of juggling a million and one things.

Thankfully, there’s one tip that can help and it’s easy to put into practice too.

According to sleep experts, blue (in varying shades) is the best choice to create a peaceful, serene environment that’s conducive to the land of nod.

If blue walls sound a little offputting, you could get tired of them very quickly to be fair, blue bedclothes are in with a shout.

In conversation with My Domaine, interior designer Brian Patrick Flynn says that blue-grey is the way to go.

You can see how this together with white, as he recommends, would create a ‘calm and tranquil’ atmosphere.

Kimberley Ayres is also a fan of blue saying that when it comes to specific shades, duck egg blue works best especially when paired with champagne hues.

Her top tip is to choose a pale shade of the colour you go for, rather than a strong tone as this could be too heavy for the ‘chill’ atmosphere you’re after.

Anything for a good night’s sleep at this point…
