3. Decorative bed runner

Using a table runner as a bed runner is a game-changer for your bedroom decor!

If it has tassels or fringes, let them flow for some added style. You can match it with your bedding or go bold with a contrasting color to make your bed pop. Throw on some decorative pillows or a cozy throw blanket, and bam—your bed just got an upgrade!

These simple yet effective ideas will transform your dining area into an Instagram-worthy space!
