I've styled 100s of beds as a stylist - this is how to turn yours into a super-cosy sleep space

Bedroom with bedding, throws and pillows.

One thing I always get asked as an interior stylist is how I get beds looking so perfect. And let's face it, when you look at images in magazines, on Pinterest and online – and even in stores – the beds often look so much plumper, fuller and more inviting than those in our own homes. 

The reason? There's a lot of work that goes into getting those images to look the way they do, and some of it is quite unrealistic for your everyday bedroom ideas. You don't want to have to pin your bedding in any way at home, for example, or put stiff tape behind the corners of Oxford pillowcases to stop them from drooping (all things I have done for the camera).
