I love the bedroom. It is my haven; the one place i can really relax in and do my thinking. That’s why i love kitting my bedroom out with some fab bedroom furniture to reflect how i use the room.My friend has a Japanese style bed, very low to the floor and very stylish. For me, its all about the height. I want to feel like The Princess and The Pea when i get into bed. Being too near the floor makes me feel a bit sick actually and i cant sleep properly. Its interesting to think how different people like different beds, when they all have the same purpose. I think as a nation, we have probably become quite fussy in our bedroom furniture choices, but now its all about having the grandest bed as possible. I saw one in a shop window the other day that had a huge canopy at the top and beautiful draping velvet curtains. It looked like something royalty would sleep in! I think the price was also only suitable for royalty too, but nevertheless, it looked stunning and if you want to impress your friends, grandeur is the best way!Bedroom furniture can encompass all sorts these days. From desks to actual sofas in there, the bedroom has become a sort of mini self-contained flat. I would love an en suite in my bedroom, but then i started thinking about the work that would be involved in getting that sorted. There was no real practical solution in doing the work, since we would have had to knock through a wardrobe, and as any women knows, wardrobe space is always in demand. The thing is though, I’ve been fooled into thinking i need an en suite when i really don’t. As a nation all about ‘convenience’ it seems ludicrous that we cant walk a few steps out of our bedroom and to the bathroom. In fact, i don’t know of any hard evidence that suggests an en suite really does add any significant extra value to your home.As far as bedroom furniture is concerned, i like everything to be sort of “shabby chic” which is a very popular look all around at the moment. EBay has some super bedroom furniture on there in a shabby chic style and i just love the French feel that it brings. My bedroom looks like a French boudoir and that’s how i like it!Sweet Pea and Willow has some luscious French bedroom furniture. My absolute favourite is this gorgeous Butterfly bed, perfect for the stylish little girl or the lady who wants to reminisce about her childhood.
