Houzz UK Contributor. I am an interiors consultant and journalist and have completed some fabulous projects and worked on some the UK's best-selling mags. I am passionate about homes and interiors and once looked at 99 different properties before putting in an offer. For me, gaining a furtive glimpse into someone's brightly-lit and beautiful house as I walk past is like getting an unexpected present. I live deep in the Kent countryside in a village house that dates back to the 17th Century with an Arts and Crafts facade. See more about me at www.amy-maynard.com and www.amymaynardinteriors.com.

We spend an average of 25 years during our lifetime tucked up in bed, so it's important to create the perfect retreat. Garner some valuable tips from these beauties – Houzz Ireland's most-saved bedroom ideas, in no particular order.
Embrace understated elegance
You were struck by the soft grey on the walls of this Dublin bedroom, as well as the simple yet elegant scheme.
A few select pink accents and a striking chandelier gives a boudoir feel, while the high ceiling and huge window offer an air of refinement.
Fear not if you don't have such impressive proportions to work with, though. Pale wall colours will make the room feel bigger and floor-length curtains elongate a space. Avoid overcrowding with a large chandelier if your room isn't so tall, however. Try getting that cut-glass look in ornate mirrored bedside tables instead.
Get personal
While this Dublin scheme might not appear restful at first sight, there's something magical about sleeping in a room that entirely reflects your personality.
Judging from the comments on this image, you loved the bold wallpaper and use of colour here, and were particularly taken by the personalised Ikea side table. A simple lick of citrus paint takes the style stakes up a notch and it's so easy to re-create.
There are plenty of other ways to inject your personality into a room – a vase filled with your favourite blooms, a shelf dotted with ornaments collected over the years or a custom-made painting or collage.
Re-create a hotel mood
You loved the buttoned headboard and billowing curtains in this Dublin property. The neutral colour palette and furnishings with a top-end finish give the feel of a five-star hotel.
You can achieve a boutique retreat feel with soft lighting, a thick-pile carpet and plenty of soft furnishings, too.

Work all white
Many of you commented on the crisp, clean finish of this Dublin master bedroom. Sometimes less is more and a white and simple look is all a bedroom needs to create a calming retreat.
This is also a great example of how a window seat can work even in a small room. It's a great space-saving idea when there's no room for additional seating, but you have deep walls or the option to build out a little. The angle on this window throws a lovely slant of light across the seat, and the reflective finish on the wardrobe does wonders for the impression of roominess, too.

Have lofty ambitions
Many of you loved the bespoke storage in the eaves of this bedroom, but what is most apparent in the comments is how much we all love the notion of sleeping in a loft space.
Extending into your attic is not only a great way to add space to your home, it can also add up to 20% to its value. Not to be sniffed at!

Select some sliding doors
The winning aspect of this Dublin bedroom for a lot of you was the sliding wardrobe doors.
Decluttering your sleeping space is an important step in achieving a good night's sleep and this room offers a great concealed space for the owner's clothes and possessions.
This is a simple and budget-friendly project – anyone can spend an afternoon de-junking a room. Once you've created a feeling of Zen, add some key pieces – such as cushions, a throw and artwork – in a bright colour to create just a few focal points.
Tuck yourself away
This coastal bedroom again demonstrates how well a loft conversion accommodates an occasional sleeping space – a room where you don't necessarily need to be standing up all that much!
The buttercream walls and huge skylight deflect from the lack of head height and give a bright and airy feel.
Take a risk
This teenager's bedroom in Dublin is an explosion of colour, with the silver headboard contrasting beautifully against turquoise wallpaper.
Many of you commented on how you felt this bold look was a total winner, and it just goes to show you appreciate a style statement.
A silver headboard would also work really well with a navy blue wall. But if you're afraid of taking a big leap into the unknown with metallics and bold brights, try starting with pale walls and using cushions to experiment with colour combinations.
Be bold
The wall covering in this small Dublin spare room certainly got you talking. You loved the funky design, and this look is evidence that you don't always need to shy away from a busy wallpaper in a little space.
It's best to use a design like this on one wall only, though, and, if possible, have it near a window, so it reflects as much light as possible to avoid the room feeling crowded.
Go for gold
The gold and beige colour scheme in this Dublin bedroom really floated your style boats, with many of you commenting on the gorgeous wallpaper.
The girlie finish is offset nicely by the cast iron radiator and Lloyd Loom chair. Look out for a slimline dressing table like this one if you're short on square footage.
