How To Decorate Your Bedroom If You're A Virgo
Those born between August 23 and September 22, are born under the sign of Virgo. Virgos have a very particular style of bedroom décor, and once they have established a routine, they rarely stray from it, says Your Tango. They thrive in tidy living spaces, so it's no wonder their room looks like something straight out of a catalog. A Virgo's pristine bedroom décor is nothing like anything you've seen before, which is exactly what this sign strives for. Whereas other zodiac signs want to flaunt their creativity, Virgos want to show off their attention to detail and love of practicality.
As reliability and structure are two common elements of earth signs, Virgos find happiness in a well-kept bedroom. They prefer a simple, clean space to an area with lots of colors and different textures. This sign is a minimalist at heart, which means it loves one of the easiest home décor styles to achieve. With that in mind, let's take a look at how to decorate your room if you're a Virgo.
1. Simple paint colors
Unlike other signs, Virgos aren't flashy nor materialistic, which translates to their bedroom décor style. In fact, they're one of the most introverted signs in the Zodiac, according to The Indian Express. As a Virgo looking to decorate their room to match this vibe, simplicity and minimalism are your friends. White is always a safe bed in a Virgo room because it's simple and clean. In addition, it doesn't draw attention to a room, which reflects Virgo's introverted personality. If white is too bland for your taste, consider painting your walls shades of brown, as brown is Virgo's power color, Colors Explained states.
An alternative paint color choice is light gray to represent the color of Mercury, the planet that rules Virgo. Mercury is the planet of communication and rational thinking, Cafe Astrology explains, which is why many people seek advice from Virgos. They love to offer their wisdom to those that need it (even when it's unsolicited).
2. Writing desk
Virgos, much like their fellow earth signs, Taurus and Capricorn, have an excellent work ethic, so keeping a desk in the bedroom is an absolute must. Though they aren't as intense as the Capricorn (who would rather spend their time planning their pitch meeting than hanging out with friends), Virgos are perfectionists and won't stop until their task exceeds expectations, according to Lifestyle Asia. A writing desk would best suit your aesthetic choice to stay within the minimalistic theme. Also, the less you have on your desk, the better (though a stress ball that's easily accessible may come in handy).
To complete your workstation, you'll obviously need a high-quality desk chair to keep you comfortable during your long work day. Next, add a day planner to keep track of your daily tasks and meetings, and finish off with your laptop or desktop. Remember, Virgos get things done quickly and efficiently, and your work desk should reflect one of your greatest qualities.
3. Organization bins and storage
If it's one thing Virgos know how to do, it's to organize, Romper states. So if you're in desperate need of arranging your closet, workstation, or kitchen, your Virgo friend is the person to call. That being said, a Virgo wouldn't be caught dead without organization bins to hold their personal belongings. There is a place for everything, and everything is in its place. Not only do these bins preserve your well-ordered aesthetic, but they increase practicality in your bedroom. With this storage method, you won't be searching for that lost sock ever again.
No Virgo bedroom is complete without a color-coded closet. While many zodiac signs may find this approach tedious and unnecessary, Virgos can't imagine a bedroom without it. However, if you don't like the look of a color-coded closet, consider organizing your closet by categories. No matter which organizational style you choose, your closet will be something to admire.
4. Bookshelf and reading nook
Virgos are known introverts and prefer a night in with their favorite book to one out at a bar or party. There's no better way to show this sign's love of books than displaying a bookshelf with your immense book collection (sorted alphabetically, of course). Floor-to-ceiling bookcases are a fun take on your typical shelves. Keep the racks free of décors, such as photo frames and houseplants, or only have a few. The idea here is to keep the focus on the books, and any extra décor would be distracting.
No Virgo bedroom is complete without a reading nook, so choose a comfortable armchair (complete with an ottoman), but ensure you go for a color that fits in with the rest of the room. When it comes to placement, put your chair near the bookcase for functionality and style. Include a small, simple stable adorned with a lamp for late-night reading, and feel free to add a lavender or chamomile scented candle — two scents proven to help you unwind and relax, Shearer Candles says.
5. Matching furniture
Because Virgos need order to function, according to Cafe Astrology, neatness is essential in their personal space. Although matching bedroom sets are no longer on trend, a person born under this sign would do well with this style of furniture because they are less concerned with keeping up with trends and knowing what's in today's fashion and more worried about symmetry and cohesiveness in their home. There's a certain expectation Virgos hold themselves to when it comes to decorating their bedroom, which is ensuring their space is better than others. For a Virgo, asymmetrical bedroom furniture is not an option.
For bedding, stick with a color that accentuates your love of tidiness and order. Bold colors are for other zodiac signs, so opt for a crisp, clean white comforter and matching sheets. Yes, white fabric typically gets dirty more often than darker colors, but worry not, as you likely have an entire cabinet of cleaning supplies to ensure your bedding is pristine.
