This is one of our down-the-road design projects, but I think we will eventually move our current bed into one of the guest rooms in our new house and upgrade to a king that we will design our entire bedroom around. When we were discussing this one recent night, I realized I immediately imagined the bed as a four-poster or canopy. I had an amazing wicker (!) canopy bed growing up (would be so on-trend at the moment) and I loved the feeling of being cosseted away in that structure, safe and cozy. I also like the way a four poster or canopy bed can really serve as the focal point of a bedroom and draw the eye upward.
A couple of great four-poster/canopy beds I’ve tagged for future reference — some are only available in a queen that would not fit our wants but including here nonetheless:
I’VE ALWAYS LOVED THIS “ARCHITECTURE” BED FROM ROOM & BOARD, WHICH COMES IN 16 GREAT COLORS TO AFFORD A CUSTOM LOOK (MATCH/CONTRAST THE BED COLOR TO/WITH THE BED LINENS)
YOU CAN GET A SIMILAR LOOK FOR WAY LESS IN WHITE WITH THIS (UNDER $200)
Anyway, the photo at the top of this post really stopped me in my tracks. I like how layered and complex it is. A few items to get the look…

NOT BEDROOM PER SE, BUT THIS $160 UPHOLSTERED CUBE IS AMAZING — LOVE IT AS A STAND-IN FOR A COFFEE TABLE IN A CHILDREN’S SPACE (NO DANGEROUS EDGES) OR COULD BE END-OF-BED

CAN’T GET OVER THE PRICE ON THIS RUG
I’VE MENTIONED THIS BEFORE, BUT A NEW BOLSTER PILLOW IN A BOLD PRINT CAN TOTALLY REJUVENATE A BEDROOM

Also – I mentioned two weeks ago that we will need to buy bar/counter stools and I found a great set of two for under $120 that I wanted to share in case you are also on the hunt. Such a good blue color!
