During the 1950’s, Americans from coast to coast began leaving city centers and moving to the suburbs. While this seemed like a good idea at the time, our parents and grandparents couldn’t have imagined four dollar a gallon gasoline. According to real estate experts, the move back to the cities is on, and while we may save a ton in gasoline, we likely are going to be stuck with homes that have less storage space than ever before, which is why an investment in bookcase headboards makes so much sense.

Every bed needs a headboard to make it look beautiful and bookcase headboards are the perfect synthesis of space saving design and modern style. The trick is to find a retailer that sells enough bookcase headboards so that customers have a wide selection. Price is a major influence on picking the perfect bookcase headboard, as well. While most people are bound to check brick and mortar stores in their city or state for a bookcase headboard, the smart shoppers out there are looking online to get the best deals anywhere.

One retailer that is known for giving all of its customers the best selection and the best price is Home and Bedroom. They have a huge variety of bookcase headboards to choose from and they always offer the lowest shipping rates of any of the major online furniture retailers.

Carolina Daybed with Link Spring

The last time you looked, your baby girl was four years old, running around and wearing your jewelry. Now, however, she’s 14 and demanding her own jewelry. The years when a young girl changes from being your baby to being a young woman in her own right are scary indeed, especially if you’re trying to redo her bedroom. Most girls are extremely opinionated and have the desire to have their room as perfect as they’ve always dreamed of having it, which means, for parents, a total nightmare. After all, you want something that is functional and affordable as well as beautiful. Enter daybeds.

Daybeds are functional for a teenager’s bedroom because you can not only use them as a couch but you can also purchase a pop up trundle unit that will allow your teen to have a friend or two over to spend the night without having to squish everyone together. The Carolina Daybed is attractive to many young girls because of its simple sweetness. It is a solid wood bed that can come finished in either white or a beautiful country pine finish. The arms and back have straight slats with a curved top, including the gentle curve in the back of the bed.

Created by Hillsdale Furniture, this wood daybed works beautifully as a first or a second bed for a teenager’s room. If they have a television in their room they can use it as a couch and as a bed for company, or as a couch and bed for themselves! Daybeds are a great option for any teenager’s bedroom and works well when they finally fly the coop too, as you can add a computer and table in their room and turn it into your very own private office!

A beautiful cottage located in the very top of the remote state of Vermont sounds a bit exciting, doesn’t it? Imagine spending a week in a cabin in the woods while the autumn leaves fall down all around you. The crisp, clean air surrounds you and even the coolness in the breeze isn’t enough to stop you from hiking around or watching the wildlife in its natural habitat. Then, after a long day, you make it back to the cabin to crawl into a warm, inviting bed. Not everyone has the ability to be able to take off for a week to Vermont, but you can create that same feeling of relaxation and rustic beauty in your own home simply by adding the right pieces of bedroom furniture into your house. The bedroom is the most likely place to start, and is the easiest to create a warm and soothing atmosphere in.

The Wilshire Post Bed is the perfect wooden bed to bring into your home if you’re looking for relaxation and, maybe, a bit of romance. This bed looks as though it came straight out of a cabin in the wilds, but is much more affordable and easier to get. It has four posts each topped with rounded balls. The foot and headboard have distressed paneling in them, while the top of each has a wood rod across it, giving it a distinct look.

Created by Hillsdale Furniture, this bed comes in both pine and antique white finish, and is available in either king or queen sizes. Pile it high with pillows and bring in some hot chocolate to make it the perfect cold evening getaway, or add some brighter colors to the bed in the form of a lively quilt to make this bed truly stand out in the middle of your master bedroom furniture.

Living in a small house or apartment offers its own problems. On one hand you have less to pay for a mortgage or rent if the place is smaller, and it costs less to heat. On the other hand, however, you may not have the amount of space available that you need in order to be able to fit everything and everyone you want to be able to fit. For example, if you have a one bedroom apartment, where will you send a friend who wants to spend the night? To a hotel? Will you have them bunk on the floor? What about if you had a couch that also doubled as a bed? Daybeds are unique in that they can be both couches as well as extremely comfortable beds, making them ideal for people who live in small spaces.

The Dalton Daybed is a wood daybed that could be the perfect answer to your space problems. This daybed is made using solid oak wood, making it extremely solid and sturdy as well. It has a solid square tapered post which connects to the slotted sidebars and back. Each post ends in a ball, and the bottom of the sides are arched slightly, adding to the beauty of the piece.

Unlike other daybeds, this daybed from Hillsdale Furniture features a unique drop leaf side table, making it perfect for a small living room, where you don’t have the space to add a side table or a coffee table. You can use the drop leaf to place your drinks or snacks on and then, when its bedtime, you can turn down the bed and fall asleep comfortably on the link spring supported bed. There is also an optional pop up trundle unit, which makes it ideal for more than one person to sleep over on!

What do you do with the spare room or two you have when your young children suddenly grow up and head to college right before your eyes? Some parents choose to leave their child’s bedroom decorated exactly the same as it used to be when their children lived in their home with them. This can actually cause you to miss your child more! As long as your child is off living on their own and out of college, it may be a good time to transform that room into one that you can use for other things. It could become a sewing room, or a scrapbooking room, or even an exercise room! You may, however, want to keep a bed in that room, just in case your child decides that they want to visit you during some obscure holiday. A wood daybed with a trundle is an excellent way to be able to allot you a sleeping area without taking up all of your space.

The Fraser Daybed Trundle is a great daybed to use when you’re looking to give your children or any visitors a place to stay while keeping with a simple décor. It can be placed in any type of room, whether you’ve turned it into a hobby room or an office, and will match well. It has a sleigh design in the rails, but the backboard has the classic camelback design. The slats in the bed are wide and have a unique design in them, making this bed something that is truly interesting and beautiful to look at.

When they designed this bed, the Fashion Bed Group gave you plenty of sleeping room, as there is a roll out trundle (or pop up trundle – your choice) that sneakily hides underneath this striking daybed.

Rugs are so passé, and looks like stickers are the new cool utility objects. The Large Floor Sticker measures 125cm in diameter has been designed by Sofia Antonovich and Miss Miza and seeks to be an alternative to carpets and rugs.

First I hear about Seinfeld featuring in Microsoft ads and now I come across this MS Windows inspired creation. Is Microsoft finally turning cool? Well I am sure Mac fanboys (and fangirls in my case) will beg to differ but that’s not the point. Check out the Fenestra 3.1 Windows by French designer John Nouanesing which seeks to replicate the Windows OS on a wall.
