Bedroom Furniture Designs

Bringing the tradition of wood furniture to the modern home needs some further consideration. The wood and forests are rapidly disappearing in certain areas of the world. When furniture is created, it is a good idea to use sustainable forests that provide wood that will be replaced in the natural order of the earth's cycles. This type of planning for the natural resources of our earth allows future generations to have the same opportunities to enjoy the very same world we have been privileged to have, but a better world because our generation consciously decided to use sustainable forests to create more furniture. Sustainable forests are the result of a common sense policy to replace trees that are felled so that forests continue to exist, providing natural materials for us all and for generations to come.

As families expand and room becomes limited, many families are using bunk beds to reduce the cost of either buying or moving to a larger home. This trend to conserve on space goes hand in hand with preserving the world's forests by creating furniture and other wood products from wood harvested in a sustainable forest. The economic climate may not allow an expanding family the opportunity to afford a larger home. Bunk beds have changed over the years in design and are quite remarkable because of all the configurations that are available in children's bunk beds. Furniture designers have been busy creating beds we only dreamed of when we were children.

Bedroom Design

When decorating a boys room, the usual starting point is choosing a boys bedding set. From there, you can begin to choose what color you would like to paint the walls and how you would like to accent the room, making it both a creative space for learning and also a calm space for sleep. There are many different ways to decorate a boys room but below are some important yet simple suggestions that you may find helpful.

Wall Color

Choose one or two colors for the walls that will compliment the boys bedding set that you have chosen. One color should be more neutral for the majority of the space. The second should be a deeper accent color. An example would be if you have a surf theme toddler boy bedding set, you could use a pale blue for the main areas and a deep navy for the accent wall.

Shelving and Storage

It’s always nice to find shelves or storage units that match the theme of your boys room. An example would be buying silver metal look shelves for a very modern or electronic style room. Or classic white for a nautical space. For complimenting a boys bedding set that is either characters or something like dinosaurs, you could paint a wooden shelf or bookcase in a complimenting color and then look for bookends that are dinosaurs.

Baskets Baskets Baskets.......

There is always room for one more basket. Most popular for boys is metal mesh but you can also use cloth or wicker baskets. These are a great place to store odds and ends like collection cards, baseballs, action figures, etc.

Homework Space

Kids’ bedroom: Storage ideas

Planning for the storage arrangement in kids’ bedrooms may sometimes prove to be a challenging task. Toys or books scattered around is a common sight. Furniture for kids should include the basics such as closets, shelves and racks. Safety is obviously the main concern. First, you need to think about the items that will be used on a daily basis. Toys are the first and foremost things. Besides, there are certain garments that may be required for frequent changing. Shelves would help you to manage these items and keep them back without much hassle. Shelves can hold all the toys and other items required daily. These shelves should be placed at a height that is not reachable to children. You can even plan for built-in closets behind doors if space is the main constraint.

Simple boxes that can be slid under beds can hold a lot of stuff which a child may need daily. Besides, these boxes can be picked up and put away when not required. These boxes can be labeled to indicate what is stored in them. There are many stores that have floor bins in vivid, attractive colors to make stacking toys and objects, an easy and enjoyable task even for children! Those that are not used frequently can be stored away in the loft. When not in use, these bins can be stacked upon each other.

Bedroom furniture obviously needs to include beds. Beds often tend to occupy most space in a bedroom. If you want to utilize the room for maximum storage, you can opt for beds that have built-in drawers or storage areas.

If you are really falling short of space in the bedroom, you can choose small closets to store stuff and place these beside windows. This automatically can be used as window seats where kids can sit and maybe read a book!

You can also look for storage options that can be dismantled or assembled to suit personal preferences. Interior decor stores have many such options where in bookcases or racks can be modified to suit the needs of the materials to be stored. The height of the compartment can be adjusted.

The basic ideas for kids’ bedrooms should be based on the fact that these need to be kid-friendly. Always keep the most used clothes and other such items in an easy-to-reach place. This will minimize unnecessary time that is spent on cleaning and tidying up. After all, every child would love to have a safe retreat for rest and play. With these storage ideas, you can keep the room clutter-free and manageable at all times!
