Decorating with Day Beds
Day beds are a functional and attractive way of adding convenient sleeping and lounging space to a room. Not only can these versatile pieces of furniture be used in the same way as a sofa or lounge chair can during the day, but it also functions as a very comfortable and full-size bed at night. When choosing a day bed, you will find that there are a wide variety of styles and colors from which to choose, making it easy to find one that will blend nicely with your overall room decor. There is also a wide array of day bed bedding to choose from, making it even easier to find one that will blend perfectly with whatever color scheme you have chosen for the room.
When shopping for day bed covers, you should choose one that not only looks nice within the room, but also one that is durable and comfortable. A comforter made from a fabric with a high thread count will not only feel more luxurious, but it will also be more durable. Because most people use their day bed as part of the seating for the room during the daytime, choosing a cover that will look create an attractive sofa appearance is often an important criteria. Another option to consider when selecting day bed bedding and covers is to choose a comforter that is comfortable for sleeping, while using a fabric throw over it during the day to give it a more furniture-like appearance. This method will also help to protect your bedtime comforter from getting dirty or damaged while sitting on the day bed during the day.
Depending on the style of the day bed, a “bed in a bag” bedding set can be a good option for creating an overall coordinated effect. This can be a great option for bedrooms or in situations where it is acceptable for it to have a “bed” look and feel for the entire day. These bedding sets often come with a set of sheets, pillow cases, a comforter, coordinating pillow shams, and even a dust ruffle. By using one of these bedding sets, you can greatly simply matching your bedding. Although there is a wide variety of price ranges for these types of sets, many people prefer to purchase a higher quality set so that they have the advantage of soft, comfortable sheets with a high thread count.
Adding a day bed to a spare room makes it easy to use the room for other purposes on a regular basis, while having a comfortable guest bedroom ready and waiting whenever it is needed. If you want to add even more sleeping space to the room, a day bed with trundle combination can be quite versatile. During the daytime, the trundle bed will slide discretely under the bed, without anyone even knowing that it is there. However, if you need an extra bed for guests, the trundle can slide out, providing plenty of extra sleeping space. A trundle is also a great idea for a child’s bedroom, because it will provide an extra bed for when a friend spends the night, without taking up any extra space.
Children and teens are often especially fond of having a day bed in their bedrooms. This is because a child or teen’s bedroom is not only a place to sleep, but also a place that they like to go to relax, listen to music, do their homework, and spend time with friends. Having one of these beds in their room will make their bedroom seem more like living space, and less like a bedroom.
