Furniture & Bedding Customisation FAQs & Tips
Do you love the idea of furniture and bedding customisation but aren’t sure where to begin? At Style Insider, we’ve rounded up some frequently asked questions to help guide you on your customisation journey with Domayne. Discover some dos and don’ts plus insider styling tips for our ranges of customisable furniture, bedding and more!
How do I customise a fabric lounge?
First, choose Australian made. At Domayne, an Australian made lounge is a customisable lounge. Our range of Australian made lounges offer a suite of customisable options.
For inspiration, consider the ‘Audrey’. This Australian made lounge is available in a range of sizes and in your choice of fabric or leather. You can also select your colour, leg style, cushion firmness plus a scatter back (as pictured) or full back.
TOP TIP: Consider your particular situation when choosing fabric or leather upholstery. We outline everything you need to know about upholstery customisation here.
DO decide first if your lounge is a showpiece. Bold colours or patterns will dominate your space. Neutrals offer versatility for future re-styling.
DON’T forget to ask in store about fabric or leather protection. Our range of Guardsman fabric or leather protection kits and cleaners will help maintain your new Australian made lounge.
How do I customise Australian made beds?
‘Luxe’ Queen Fabric Bed Frame
Like an Australian made lounge, our range of Australian made beds are customisable to suit your particular needs. One of our favourites, the ‘Luxe’, provides ample options for customising to your space. You can select the fabric, size, bedhead height, and a gas-lift or drawer base for convenient storage.
TOP TIP: Hidden storage maximises space. Opt for a gas-lift or drawer bed base to effortlessly stow bed linen and other bulky items.
DO consider position when choosing your bedhead height. Lower bedheads slip neatly under windows while higher bedheads add interest to bare walls.
DON’T forget your bed is the focal point. By customising the look and functionality of your bed, you can express your style without clutter.
What are the options for fabric beds?
‘Marlow’ Queen Fabric Bed Frame
Cosy and inviting, fabric beds suit a variety of bedrooms. Plus, a soft headboard is perfect for relaxing! Our Australian made fabric beds, like the ‘Marlow’, offer you the choice of size, fabric, colour, and bedhead height.
TOP TIP: Fabric bedhead styles create different feels. Square-edged with vertical lines (like ‘Marlow’) evokes modernist vibes. A timeless, traditional look favours button-detailing and wings.
DO choose soothing hues to promote restfulness. Soft blues, greens or purples are calming. Create warmth with richer, earthy tones such as browns or reds.
DON’T forget neutral fabric beds offer versatility for styling with colourful bed linen that you can match to the season.
How do I customise a dining setting?
A timber table and fabric dining chair offer the most potential for crafting a personalised dining setting. We love the Australian made ‘Orana’ Rectangular Dining Table and Fabric Dining Chair. The table is available in a range of sizes, shapes and timber stains, plus you can customise the stain and fabric of the co-ordinating dining chair.
TOP TIP: Match your timber stain to your style. Choose natural or darker finishes for a contemporary look or russet stains for a more traditional feel.
DO anchor your look with colour. As the centrepiece, your dining setting will draw the most attention. Accent the shades of your fabric dining chair colour in your décor and table decorations.
DON’T forget fabric protection! Our range of Guardsman fabric protection kits and cleaners will help keep your fabric dining chair in tip-top condition.
How do I create an easy custom look with homewares?
Curate a selection of homewares to make a personal style statement and instantly refresh the look of your home. The transformative effect of colourful cushions and rugs will give your room an effortless makeover that perfectly showcases your unique touch.
TOP TIP: Create contrast by mixing and matching cushions in varying sizes, shapes and textures for an up-to-date look.
DO use a rug to change or complement your styling. A lively, patterned rug is a statement piece that can re-focus your look. A neutral rug can add warmth to your space while integrating with your current style.
DON’T be afraid to go bold! A neutral fabric lounge means your cushions or rugs can be as colourful as you like. Select two or three colours in your existing décor to accent.
How can I customise my bedroom look with bed linen?
‘Aura Chambray’ Quilted Quilt Cover in Dove & ‘Aura Maison Fringe’ Quilt Cover in White
Our bed linen ranges offer an assortment of styles, patterns and colours. Combine your personal favourites to make your bed a unique centrepiece!
TOP TIP: Layers are the trick to successfully styled bed linen. Start with a sheet set or quilt cover set then finish with a blanket or throw. Mix your pillowcases from the sheet and quilt sets.
DO balance your layers with colour. Opt for one neutral layer. Next, select a pattern and one complementary colour for the other two layers.
DON’T hesitate to oversize your quilt. The extra drape from an over-sized quilt is an insider style secret!
