Contemporary Bedroom Furniture: Planning A Bed

by: Joel Walsh

Don't let your bed be an afterthought. Your bed will be the most prominent object in your room, so it has to go with your bedroom's theme, color-wise, size-wise, and style-wise. A huge bed in a small room will likely look out of place, as would a four-post bed in a room with sleek modern furnishings.

Bed Sizes

The most popular bed sizes are king, queen, twin and the increasingly popular California king. A California king is narrow and long, rather than the traditional king bed's square shape. Just make sure you have the exact dimensions of your bed before you go mattress shopping, since bed manufacturers sometimes don't follow the standard bed sizes exactly.

Bed Styles

Don?t confuse bed sizes with bed styles. Bed styles refer to the headboard and footboard. The basis of any bed is still the mattress and frame, which only vary outwardly in terms of the sizes listed above.

? Daybed. Daybeds are twin beds. What makes them special is that they can double as couches if you position them against a wall. Being compact and versatile, daybeds are great for small spaces.

? Platform. Platform beds are elegantly simple, fitting in with just about any style of decor.

? Sleigh bed. Sleigh beds have curved headboards and foot boards that look like, well?a sleigh. There are simpler and more modern sleigh bed designs, so you can get one even if you are going for a more modern-looking room.

? Four post bed. You know this bed already: it's the one with a post sticking up out of each corner. The posts can support a canopy, but the canopy is optional.

? Pencil post bed. Pencil post beds are like four-post beds, only the posts are tall and tapered like?well, pencils. Harking back to their heyday in the 1700s, pencil-post beds fit a room with colonial furnishings especially well.

About Furniture Rental

There are many businesses out there which rent furniture by the month. You need a couch? Rent one for only $40 per month. Need a lamp? You can get one for $12 a month. Now, let?s see, in one year you would have paid $480 to use the couch and you wouldn?t own it. The lamp would have cost you $144 and it?s the same situation ~ at the end of your lease, you still own nothing.

Most of us would think it foolish to rent furniture. But, that isn?t always the case. There are situations where renting may be the best option. Consider these scenarios:

? Right after you get married, you move into...

How Do Home Furnishing Experts Study An Interior Space?

by: Shrinivas Vaidya

Dear friends, have you ever entered an empty room, without any furniture in it. Such a room always looks spacious, but lacks a "personality".

The moment you start adding some furniture, the space starts to attract a face on itself. Depending upon the volume of the objects being put, the space gets altered in a dynamic fashion.

by: Chris Robertson

Organic foods have been around for decades, and those concerned about the pesticides and chemicals used in industrial farming have long turned to organics to ensure that the foods they eat are healthy and pure. Increasingly, though, people who don't consider themselves to be naturalists or environmentalists are embracing eco-friendly foods and home furnishings.

Whether out of a concern for the diminishing rain forests or for the chemicals found in the carpet that their baby crawls on, there is a growing market for eco-friendly furniture and home furnishings. From organic mattresses made from cotton and wool to wood furniture made from reclaimed wood, there is a myriad of eco-friendly home furniture from which to choose.
