A recessed bedroom shelf?

If you’re building a new house, or renovating, have you considered adding a recessed shelf or niche into your bedroom in place of a bedhead? The last house we built did have one over the bed and I loved it. We didn’t have the space for it in this house, but if I build again I’ll be adding another for sure. It had little downlights and was such a nice addition to the room.

Today I have a few ideas for you…

The timber is gorgeous!

In place of shelves, you could create little spaces either side of the bed.

This one above is stunning. The wall colour, the lights and the marble boxed out area is perfect.

Kate’s above is the best. She has a fab Instagram account and is always changing this space around. She puts prints in her niche.

What’s not to love about a recessed shelf? Have you got one or considering one?

    This is a good idea to have a shelf above the bed, you can keep many useful things on top of it. We did it for our clients as well. They all love it and give the good feedback.
