What do you get when you cross a talented Interior Design Editor, with quality upholstered bedroom furniture and fabric from a number of market-leading fabric houses? The answer - a very stylish five-page editorial feature in Belle Magazine!

To say we were thrilled to have been featured in Belle Magazine is a slight understatement. If you haven't already, make sure you pick up the February/March 2017 issue.

Here's what you'll be looking at

Production and styling for the feature 'Undercover Culture' was put together by Interiors Editor Lucy McCabe and photographed by Will Horner. Lucy chose 3 bedheads from our standard range and requested we customise 2 bedheads to achieve a specific look for the shoot. Her choice of fabric, along with modern geometric shapes and dramatic lighting created a distinct high end style and mood. "These bedtime stories tell of deeply restful sleeping spaces rich in pattern and colour", so states the magazine.

There's something special to be said about those born in January. These babies get the ultimate fresh start as they're born in the first month of the new year. And here at BedNest, we know there's no better way to start the new year than with a little redecorating around the house!

Some of us pay a little more attention to our astrological signs than others, so we decided it would be a cool idea to clue in Capricorns on how to redecorate based on their sign. Of course, other astrological signs can learn a thing or two from these tips too - let's dive in!

What does it mean to be a Capricorn?

First let's discuss the nature of your sign. Capricorns - aka, the Goat - tend to be practical, loyal people. You're strong-willed, and you know who you are as a person, so it's easy for you to feel comfortable in most social situations. You're hard working and you follow the rules. Overall, Capricorns are very sensible people! 

Our latest photoshoot ran over three crazy days - it had us rushing from pillar to post, but the end results were simply stunning. We couldn't be happier!

Over the last few years, we've had the pleasure of working with professional photographer Chris Warnes - his photographic prowess never fails to deliver anything but truly beautiful results. In fact, Chris' work is regularly featured in some of Australia's leading home magazines and we're sure you'll agree, he certainly knows his way around a BedNest bedhead.

The Christmas festivities are behind us and life is slowly and inevitably getting back to normality. All those presents under the tree that had been taunting the family have been opened and by now the torn wrapping paper tossed into the recycling bin. That was the easy bit! You now need to be sure you have enough room to store all your new gifts as well as the decorations. The last thing we need is a home that feels like it's closing on you and feeling cluttered as opposed to cool and collected.

A big part of having a home that is well put together is the ability to bring together various styled elements (both functional or ornamental) and the colours to create consistency or contrast as required. If you only add to what you have, your home might start to resemble a patchwork quilt - we're talking hoarder status.

We've pulled together a few ideas that might help you feel a little more organised and set you up for
