Setting up a functional and comfortable workspace in a small bedroom doesn’t have to be a challenge. I’ve curated this list with the exact items I use in my own compact office setup — from a space-saving monitor and ergonomic chair to smart accessories that keep everything organized. Whether you’re working from home, studying, or creating content, this setup maximizes comfort and productivity without taking up too much room.The one piece I'm missing that I'd like to incorporate is one of those light bars that go above your monitor. The room is fairly dark, so I'd love to incorporate some more accent lighting. Are there other items that people use to get the perfect desk setup to be super productive?

I've always been a fan of staying at hotels - something about a great hotel bed makes for an amazing sleep! I've been on the hunt for the perfect set-up to achieve that hotel-like bedroom feel at home, and I think I finally achieved it! I did splurge a little on the furniture, but I think it's worth it since they'll last. The furniture also isn't super trendy, so it'll look great for years to come, and can be easily styled with new bedding as trends change. As for bedding, it's so easy to spend gobs of money on bedding, but I can't ever bring myself to make that jump. I tend to change out my bedding often as my style tastes change (or even just for the seasons), so for me personally, I like to stay on the cheaper side so I can rotate things out and not feel like I'm wasting money. With just a little bit of searching, it's easy to find great-quality bedding that feels great, but also looks super high-end!
