The Perfect Daybed Bedding Ensemble

August 30th, 2008 · No Comments

To make your daybed truly appealing, you must know the basic ingredients that complete it. Since daybeds are basically intended for leisure purposes, the linens make the huge difference.

A daybed bedding ensemble comprises of linens or sheets, a comforter set, a cover, a bed skirt, and some pillows. Each plays a significant role in the overall effect. Each needs careful attention so your style comes out fluidly.

In a daybed bedding ensemble, your choice of linens or sheets according to its comfort level is very important. For your daybed to be an absolutely relaxing and tranquil spot, your sheets must be soft enough to the touch. The definition of soft of course depends on the ones using or designing it. That means, you will decide the comfort level of your sheets by considering the thread count. The general principle on linens is this: the higher the thread count, the better is the quality of the fabric. A 200 thread count of clothing is normally used. But those who love luxury sometimes go for 300 or even higher thread count.

The comforter set is another interesting factor in a daybed bedding ensemble. Its pattern and comfort level is important because it makes up for the overall appeal of the daybed. Some people like using reversible comforter sets to make more choices in design.

A cover is sometimes used to enhance the look of the daybed. in most cases, daybed covers fit like bedspreads and drops down to the floor. When the ‘drop’ is short, a bed skirt is used to fill the void. A coordinating bed skirt is only intended for such purpose. If the cover is able to cloak around the frame, a bed skirt is no longer needed.

After putting in the right combinations of sheets, comforter, and cover, it is time to jazz up your daybed by the use of pillows and bolsters. You can easily put as much pillows and bolsters that you feel like putting. Just make sure that you do not overdo it so your daybed will not look cluttered.

Accessorizing your daybed is different from messing it up. An ideal daybed bedding ensemble is all about the proper amount of fabrics and the right choice of colors, patterns, and textures. Take time to study your room. That is the only way you could decide on which options you would favor. Your goal is to make an elegant spot that is relaxing from the look down to the feel.

Wooden Daybeds: Chic for Cheap

August 20th, 2008 · No Comments

If you find yourself stuck with a somewhat small space that you want to decorate as a recreation or a reception room, you might want to skip the size of the couch and go with a daybed. It’s a great space-saving piece of furniture because it can go from sofa to bed with just a switch of the mattress and covers. You also have the option of getting a trundle attachment so that it affords you (or your guests) and even larger surface area.

The functional aspect of daybeds are already well-known, but what about aesthetic value? For starters, trundle beds come in a wide variety of materials (and even combinations thereof) so you won’t find yourself in any shortage of variety. The abundance of daybeds on the market also means that you’ll find it easy to find something that’s within your budget. Wooden daybeds, in particular, can add a certain visual element to your space that other kinds cannot.

The Wooden Touch

A wooden daybed can become an eye-catching piece of furniture, especially when it’s properly chosen and if it’s paired with the right colors and textures. Wooden daybeds can also become a central element if you’re planning to go for the rustic or farmhouse look because, after all, you can’t get a much more natural feel than that from the color and texture of a wooden daybed.

The other elements that you’ll partner up with your wooden daybed will also play a big part in how the final result will look like. You can get some solid, pastel-colored sheets and beddings to give a serene and relaxed look, or you could go for quilted or patterned beddings with light colors for a homey, farm cottage feel. Tie in the colors of your beddings with the colors of the drapes and other items in the space so that it’ll have a little structure and harmony in terms of color. Also, get samples of colors and finishes for the daybeds you’re considering so you can see which ones will look good with your flooring.

Wood Looking Well

The surface and the finish of your wooden daybed are very important, so you’ve got to keep them up with proper maintenance. Most woods like cypress demand certain treatments like oils to maintain their consistency, their color and their finish. Giving your wooden daybed the proper treatment it needs early on lengthens its lifetime, meaning you can get a lot more years out of it than you would have otherwise. It’s advisable that you find yourself a woodworker to help you in the regular maintenance of your wooden daybed.

Two Types of Daybed Trundles

August 11th, 2008 · No Comments

A daybed is a piece of furniture that doubles as a couch and a bed. That in itself is a convenient and space-saving piece that makes a good addition to any home. But what makes a daybed more adaptable is when it comes with a trundle. The word trundle, by definition, pertains to motion or moving. So, daybed trundles are movable attachments that are stowed under daybeds that can be taken out to complement the existing furniture. There are two types of daybed trundles that accompany a daybed and each enhances it in a different way.

One kind of daybed trundle is the drawer kind. Drawer daybed trundles are simply drawers that you pull out from under the daybed – hence, the name. Now, a trundle drawer can work as a storage space or, when laid with a mattress, an extra bed. The latter is the more popular use for the trundle drawer though.

What makes a trundle drawer convenient is that it has wheels on the bottom so it’s easy to pull from under the daybed. In effect, you automatically get two separate beds in one – the existing daybed and low trundle bed.

The low trundle bed is a good way to have an extra bed ready for any situation - be it for extra guests in your home or for a kid’s sleepover with friends. This accompanying furniture for a daybed is already a good space-saving investment. What’s even better is a trundle that can do more than just provide a separate low bed. And this is exactly what the other type of daybed trundle offers.

The other type of daybed trundle is the kind that pops up. Pop-up daybed trundles are more flexible than drawer daybed trundles. For one, it can be pulled up into a separate low bed (without the wheels, of course). Second, the pop-up trundle can be further propped up to the same level as the daybed and locked in place to make one big bed.

Depending on your preference and needs, there are two types of daybed trundles that can satisfy them. When you want a trundle that can work either as a storage area or a separate low bed, drawer trundles are the best accompanying furniture. But if you prefer to have the convenience of either having a low separate bed or turning your daybed into a big bed, then, pop-up daybed trundles can suit that penchant easily.

Used Daybeds = Cheap Comfort

August 9th, 2008 · No Comments

Daybeds are well-known to interior decorators today because they offer the amenity of both a bed and a sofa without taking up as much expense or space. It involves less cost, less space and less hassle.

But it’s almost certain that you’re looking for even lower prices. After all, who can resist a bargain? If you want a daybed at minimum cost, you might want to try getting it used.

Used Daybed Hunting

When you go looking for a used daybed, you can go look through the usual suspects. That means sifting through all the flea markets, garage sales and used furniture stores nearby for any used daybeds that catch your eye. If you’re lucky, you might even get to find one that’s been used for just several months, or one that was barely used at all. Whichever venue you visit, make sure you’re ready to do a lot of walking and asking, because you never know where that bargain might be hiding.

The big, bargain-hunting advantage of getting used daybeds from places like garage sales and flea markets is that you’re allowed to haggle. Obviously, you can’t do this at places like the mall or the department store. Haggling allows you to get prices that are even lower than the ones the seller posted. And don’t worry about doing it, because it’s so common a practice that most sellers and vendors give a 10 to 20 percent price leeway for people to negotiate.

Quality Control

Of course, just because you’re daybed used doesn’t mean that you’ll get just about anything that meets your price. You also have to make sure that the item is of decent to excellent quality. A good trick to use is to look in the department stores or the new furniture stores, and then inquire about how to check for the quality and sturdiness of daybeds. Once you know what kind of traits to look for and what methods to use to test a daybed’s quality, apply it to the used daybeds that you’ll see being sold. Not only will you be able to spot the best quality daybeds from the bunch, you’ll also look like a serious and knowledgeable customer, someone the vendors are less wont to swindle.

Getting a used daybed isn’t just about looking for the price. Getting a used daybed that’s cheap but of great quality at the same time just takes a bit of inquiry, a little research and a lot of buyer smarts.

The Daybed Sheet

August 4th, 2008 · No Comments

The allure of a daybed lies in the complete package. It is not just the frame nor the mattress nor the comforter, nor the sheet nor pillows. It is about the beauty of putting together different things that mix. Among all the daybed essentials, the sheet is often overlooked, which should not be the case. The daybed sheet plays an all important role in accentuating the bedroom furniture like everything else.

The foremost concern for a daybed sheet purchase is the size. No matter how huge or small your daybed may appear, it almost always requires the same size of sheet. The frame might only be fooling you but the twin-size sheet is applicable to most, if not all, daybeds. If you are having a hard time managing with a twin size daybed sheet, you may use a super twin size. The difference between the two is that the latter gives you more arm space. It fits loosely so it is not difficult to manage. When combined with a twin-size comforter, you will get favorable results with your super twin size daybed sheet.

Another factor that should be considered in choosing a daybed sheet is the pattern. Your daybed must not look a piece of clutter. If you are seeking to make it a cornerstone of your bedroom or of any space that you put it in, you must carefully decide on your design. Choose a daybed sheet that mix well with your comforter. You can go for different patterns or colors for as long as they mix well enough. If you have a trundle bed underneath, you can treat it differently or pattern it to the over bed, whichever case may work depending on your taste.

After deciding on the specifications, you must next find a bedding store that would carry your preference. Furniture retailers should carry what you are looking for, only they will offer it in different terms. To make the most of your hard-earned dollars, choose a store that offers discounts or has ongoing promos. This way, you can get what you are looking for at its maximum value. High-end retail stores usually carry the same quality but charges higher. You would stay away from those if you are a wise shopper. The furniture store’s name should be of little concern to you. You must focus your attention on getting the premium daybed sheet that fits right into your budget.
