The Bed
The style of the bed I choose will definitely play a big role in my design of my bedroom. I can either go very espensive on my bed choice or I can go much less expensive way in picking out my bed for my bedroom. Now if I was one that likes to go to flea markets or antique stores, this would be a good place to find a bed. If I do find a bed that I like I will need to know that antique bed frames are made for smaller matteresses, so I will have to make adjustments to allow for today's standard mattress sizes.
In my hunt, If I find a old wood headboard that I like because I like the design, but not how it looks, I can change it with using stain, paint, paper, and stencils.
If I like to have a brass bed in my bedroom, always keep in mind that the rails and joinery will require a lot of rubbing to keep the rich luster of the brass. If I do not want to do all of that elbow grease I can buy the brass clear-coated. Always try out the mattress before you buy it because you spend one-third of your life lying on a mattress.
