So, a while back I was obsessing about what kind of bed to get- right now my mattress and box spring are just on the standard metal frame that comes included… no headboard or anything. I wanted to get something that looked more like a piece of furniture, because my bedroom is kind of, well, under-decorated. I was mainly looking at metal beds because I figured that the wooden frames were too expensive and bulky. Today I went to the same clearance center where I bought my couch and in ten minutes I had purchased a bed. Wanna see it?
I’ve always liked sleigh beds but they tend to be on the giant side, and my bedroom is kind of long, like a boring beige shoe box. A bed with a big frame or a high footboard would just be too much. This one seemed to be about the right size, and I think it will go nicely with my dresser. It was a little more than I originally anticipated spending, but I think it’s also a nicer bed than I thought I was going to get. It was the first thing the sales guy showed me and I thought, ‘Yup. That works.’ It should be shipped to the store by Monday and I can have it delivered on Wednesday. Yay! I’ll be one step closer to having a properly decorated bedroom.
Nice!
Thanks! I’m excited to see it in the room.
Post pix when you have it in your house! It has a nice sleigh-ish look and even if you don’t immediately buy their matching bits & Pieces pine is always easy to match. Plus with coloured textiles and some artwork you can banish the beige blahs. Or you could paint, since it’s your house!
