Got a bedroom that could be way more cozy-coded than it is right now? You're not alone. Loads of TikTokers take to the video platform every day to show their followers a lackluster bedroom that they want advice making over. Thankfully, TikTok is the kind of community-minded place where people actually will swarm your comments section with (mostly) thoughtful and helpful answers — and the bedroom solutions are pretty consistent. There are just some decor and furnishing details that should be bedroom requirements for all. Your sleeping quarters should feel like a place you want to retreat to every day, you know? And what better place to shop on your quest to create this than the ever-affordable, IKEA? Check out 17 IKEA finds below that'll make you never want to leave your bedroom.
Spoiler Alert: The other people in your house may not wanna leave your bedroom either after you make these upgrades. We'll let you decide how to handle that though.
The bedroom isn't just for sleeping! Aside from the living room , it can be your favorite place to hang out, binge-watch a good show, chat to your friends, or just relax and meditate. That said — good lighting makes for a soothing backdrop to all of that and the Fado lamp is one of the most beloved bedside lamps at IKEA for its decorative globe shape and soft, warm light.
Customer review: "Our favorite bedroom lamp. Love this lamp so much. We have a smart bulb in it so it can be any color and dim it’s the perfect ambiance." — Jessica
Reclaim your early AM sleep with these Schottis blackout shades that will block light so the morning sun doesn't awaken you earlier than you need it to. The shades require no tools for installation thanks to a wall adhesive design — making them a quick curtain solution if you live in a dorm or have just moved in and haven't had time to hang up your own curtains just yet.
Customer review: "Brilliant for the bedroom and hallway 100% for value and for keeping sun out." — Anonymous customer
"This is such a fab and cheap hack to get that luxurious ‘hotel’ look in your home ☁️🤎🫶" wrote TikToker Brittany who shared this video of her Hilja curtain bedroom installation with her followers.
Ikea customer review: "Lovely. Also my second set of these, they look very pretty and give a lovely haze in the bedroom." — Anonymous
If you love the idea of having a makeup and skincare station right in your bedroom, then here's some inspo worth recreating ASAP. TikToker Mary Matta used the Lagkapten desk and two wall shelf units from the iconic Lack series to create a spacious vanity perfect for getting ready in the morning and a lovely self-care routine at night. This wall unit and desk combo is also perfect for a gaming station or work-from-home setup in your bedroom!

This gorgeous upholstered design will stand out without overpowering the relaxing vibe of your bedroom.
Customer review: "Purchased this bed, absolutely love the quality and the ease of putting it together Slates we’re included in the box. Clean and sleek looking very modern." — Ana
Price: $399 (was $549)
6. An easy-to-store tray for eating and working from your bed (aka, favorite seat in the house).
The Klipsk bed tray is designed for multiple uses in mind. You can work or eat from bed with ease and when you're done, it folds up flat and can be stored under the bed, in a cabinet, or on your desk. The tray also has an indention perfect for upholding a phone or tablet.
When you commit to not leaving your bed or bedroom — this bed tray will commit right with you.
Customer review: "These are great for those lazy days in bed, strong, and are set at a good height." — Anonymous reviewer
7. A stylish purifier to help make the air extra comfortable in your bedroom.
Purifiers are a great way to refresh the air in your space.
Into bright, mood-boosting colors — dopamine decor lovers, I'm looking at you — but not really into taking on a whole paint or wallpaper job? A duvet swap is definitely an easier, more affordable option. This pink and orange version is a new addition at IKEA and quickly becoming a favorite. It'll come with the duvet cover and one pillowcase and it's only available in the double/queen size. You can also get the set in a black-and-white color scheme if you like the stripes but aren't into the bold hues.
This duvet set is made of 100% linen material with a 104 thread count, making it a lightweight, breathable option for people who sleep hot any time during the year. It's also available in more colors — like sage green and dark beige — in case your pink era is short-lived.
Customer review: "Love the look and feel. No shedding and definitely does not feel like sleeping under a potato sack. Fits my duvet perfectly. If they sold a taupe colour I would buy it in a second." — Anonymous reviewer
Price: $129 for the full/queen size only
10. A bright nightstand so you can reach every single thing you need to without ever leaving your bed.
Sometimes it's not just our bedroom we don't want to leave; it's the entire bed itself. If you're without a bedside table, I fear you've completely missed the point of just how comfy and convenient a bedroom should be. This KNARREVIK side table offers a slightly industrial design with a bright splash of color. It also boasts two tiers, offering plenty of space to store your phone, alarm clock, a glass of water, and so much more. The nightstand is also available in blue and black.
Customer review: "Nice table very useful and light fits my small space beside my bed and [works] perfectly." — Osman
Sure it's marketed as a side table but if it fits in your bedroom, then it's appropriate for your bedroom!
Customer review: "I use this as a bedside table. So very practical with the air purifier hidden away underneath. I is very quiet. Quiet enough to use right next to my bed. Replacement filters are one of the most affordable on the market. My only slight niggle is the frequency of the fan stepping up the speed on auto. The sensor does sense deodorant in the room and will kick up the fan a notch immediately in response. I just wish it would be a little more sensitive to dust as I have a very dusty room. Before I hop into bed I will run it on high for a bit in an attempt to make it more effective. I have a 20sqm bedroom which I think is its limit as far as room size goes. Overall I am pleased with the product and the air purifier being discretely hidden under a practical table is the best feature." — Craig
Price: $225.99
12. You could also save on floor space with this floating nightstan d with a built-in Sonos Bluetooth speaker.
Experience sound in your bedroom in a totally new way
If you're already comfy with your bedrooms' air quality, then perhaps a purifier-end table hybrid isn't your jam. Maybe you just like jams, in general? This floating nightstand is definitely calling your name. You'll still get two tiers for storage but you'll also be able to listen to music, audiobooks, podcasts, nature sounds or whatever soothes you while you're relaxing in your bedroom.
You can also rest assured that the sound quality will be top-tier because the table is built in partnership with Sonos, the iconic speaker brand known for delivering crisp, clear sound products. Yeah, over and over, the IKEA designers prove their genius. Get this table in two color options.
Price: $169.98
13. Easy roll-out, under-bed storage to keep your bedroom tidy and organized.
Wheel the clutter away with these convenient storage chests.
The bedroom is supposed to be the place you can clear your mind but it's very hard to do that when it looks like a tornado aftermath. Put storage systems in place like this roll-out under-bed storage that helps you keep things put away.
Customer review: "Fits perfectly under my bed. Originally I was going to put clothes in it but for now I have some books. I def want another." — Kathrine
Price: $60
14. A candle to add to the peaceful bedroom ambiance with a light, woodsy fragrance.
Ikea might be the place with the cheapest candle options of all the affordable stores. This Adlad scented candle is only $0.49, making it cheaper than even the candles at Dollar Tree! It has a 12-hour burning time and is a great size to for a nightstand or small desk.
15. And don't forget a cork candle lid ! It costs more than the scented candle itself but that's because you can use and reuse it far beyond one candle's shelf life.
The ronnspirea lid
The cork lid can be used as the base for the candle and also a top to snuff out the flame and prevent dust accumulation when it's not in use.
Customer review: "Didn't know they had this. I discovered this my last trip to ikea and it just some sense. You can use it on two sizes of candle jars as well." — Kameron
LED lighting strip are likely the easiest and cheapest lighting upgrade you can make in your bedroom. Get the Vattensten LED strip to add extra light to your bed frame, television, dresser, or even your makeup vanity!
Customer review: "Put in daughters room and she loves it! As do I. No need to think too long go ahead and buy it. It’s a short cord though so if you want it longer I’m guessing you gotta buy more to connect to it. Work for our needs as is." — Christine
Price: $7.99
17. If the bedroom is your central hangout spot, then it's likely your kitty loves lounging in there, too. Make sure they do it in style with this elevated, rattan pet bed .
The kitties deserve to live in the lap of luxury too. And so you know, a few small dog owners also note they're pups love it also.
Customer review: "Easy to put together. Good and sturdy. Love the handle, you can just pick it up and move it around. As per the usual both my cats have pretended to ignore it. I have tho caught both of them sitting in it, where I then got a side eye… What? They both also like to climb and sit on it. Yes it is a bit expensive however it will definately last and looks great in any room." — Anonymous reviewer
Price: $69.99
18. An accent chair for times when you want to be in your room but don't necessarily want to be lounging in bed.
The Sotenas accent chair is a great way to provide a plush seating option and another pop of color into a spot in your bedroom.
