If a cluttered desk is a cluttered mind, a cluttered bedroom is an exhausted mind. 

You just spend too many hours of your life in that room — almost all for the express purpose of relaxation and recharging — to have an uncomfortable or uninspiring space. 

The two best things you can do right off the bat are A) buy a nice bed (I own a Casper, it’s legit) and B) keep the room clean. Vacuum, Swiffer, dust, don’t pile up the laundry. 

But to really turn your bedroom into a personal haven, a place you can go and read or fall asleep on command, it’s all about the finishing touches. And when carefully chosen, you can introduce some pretty sweet picks to your bedroom for not much money … say, around $500. 

From luxury sheets and memory foam pillows to stone planters and bedside lights imagined by British designers, below are six pieces to de-clutter and beautify your bedroom. 

Oh, and a bonus for that other thing you like to do in the bedroom.
