How to Match a Blanket Box to the Rest of Your UK Bedroom Furniture

A blanket box can do a great deal of work in a bedroom. It adds storage without taking up much floor space, it sits at the foot of the bed where it draws the eye naturally, and when chosen well it makes the whole room feel considered and complete. The challenge is getting it to sit comfortably alongside the furniture you already own, whether that is a fitted wardrobe, a mix of freestanding pieces or a coordinated bedroom set.
