Bedroom Furniture

One of the most important parts of your bedroom, your bed frame is the foundation of where you sleep and helps determine your room's overall style. Be sure to pick a frame with a solid, high-quality construction to act as a sturdy base for your mattress. You can choose from a variety of materials, from plain wood or metal to fabric upholsteries, to find a bed frame that matches your preferences.

Your bed's headboard combines with the bed frame to add to the style of your bed and your room. Headboards come in a variety of sizes and shapes, from tall and ornate to short and subtle. Go with a plush, upholstered headboard for a comfortable backrest when sitting in bed, or stick to a bare frame for a more subdued appearance. Adding a unique headboards is the perfect way to add style and comfort to your bed.

No matter what your sleeping preferences are, there's a mattress that you'll love to sink into every night. Traditional mattresses with coiled springs offer an affordable price tag, while memory foam mattresses are more versatile in regards to feel and features. From firm mattresses with extra support to ultra-plush pillow tops, find a mattress that provides the perfect level of comfort for you.

Dressers serve a functional purpose as well as a stylish one. You can use them to store clothes and other items, but your dresser should add to the overall look of your room as well. Dressers come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and styles, as well as with or without mirrors, so you can find the perfect fit for any room. Pick a material and a finish that complements the rest of your bedroom furniture for a dresser that you'll use for years to come.

Your nightstand, or bedside table, sits right next to your bed so you can keep necessary items within arm's reach. Use a set of two matching nightstands and put one on each side of your bed to create a symmetrical look in your room. Choose nightstands that are about the same height as the top of your mattress to make sure they work with your existing bedroom furniture and are convenient to use.

A storage chest is the perfect addition to a bedroom that needs extra storage space. Place a chest at the end of your bed as a place for extra blankets, shoes, or clothes that you don't want in your dresser. A sturdy chest with a comfortable upholstered top can also act as a bench and provide some extra seating space for your room.

The lighting in your room is integral to the overall mood, so use lamps and sconces with shades that will diffuse soft light into the room. Linen or frosted glass shades are perfect for toning down a lamp's brightness while still filling the room with light.

Since your bed is the focal point of your room, use your bedding to add to the dreamy atmosphere. All-white bedding is an easy way to brighten a room and make coordinating decor easy. Choose bedding with a unique stitched pattern to give your bed a little texture.

Include a pile of pillows and shams to add to the cozy look and feel of your bed. Vary the sizes and shapes of the pillows for a slightly eclectic look, or stick with rectangle pillows to keep everything matching perfectly. Use a throw blanket to give your bed some tactile appeal and a dash of color.

Adding additional seating is the perfect way to give your room a cozy reading nook or just another spot to relax. Use a plush accent chair or settee to add seating without taking up too much room, or add an upholstered storage bench to the end of your bed for added function. Bring a comfortable ottoman into the mix to maximize your lounging potential in your newly furnished sanctuary.
