Bed and Breakfast

This hide-away bed behind cupboard doors in the dining room could really be found in any room in the house.

I wonder if there is a bed in the upper cupboards too?
A new style of bunk beds!

I think the broom is a fun addition.  Does it suggest that there might be witches in the area?  It does look like a rather enchanted area.  Love it!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Built in Beds

Stuff I'm lovin'
 includes built in beds. 

They certainly have their place ..., depending on the place.

This, seen at Beachcomber, make a great seat or bed for every time of the day. Dual purpose is great!

And ..., a bit more detail and storage ability, but a little more bed like (which means it probably would be too hard to use for seating), from HERE

Great storage and great beds seen at Poetic Home 

There are 7 looks there.

And possibly one of my favorite is this one from Aiken House and Gardens.
Isn't it beautiful! The color sceme, the textures, the whole thing!

 

and here is a corner you cannot see in the first photo - it includes a great little shelf

I didn't spend enough time to see them all, but I did look at a few pages and know that it would be a great place to go for ideas if I was seriously considering creating some built in beds.

Here is a cute bed idea from Freddy and Petunia - though I first saw it at Beyond the Picket Fence

I really like this open style - From Houzz

Built in Beds

I like the storage cupboards between each bed - I can never have too much storage space.

I like the wall lamps in the individual stalls - excellent for personal reading time.

The windows above the beds let in the natural light and adds so much to the room - I like that idea.

The light wall color appeals to me, and the natural linen looking bedding and curtains on a rod are a great way to add color and style to the simplicity of this wall.

Other things I like - the ceiling fan, the rug, the large window/french doors.

Maybe the space under the beds could have drawers or cupboard doors for storage space.

AWESOME built in bunk beds! August Fields
I have always had a hard time with the ladders climbing up to the bunk beds, and this just seems to make them more safe...not to mention how super cool they are.

MY BED

Today's A Grateful Heart post.

I wanted to post about this yesterday, but thought I'd better stick to one item per day. I actually had three topics on my mind for yesterday's post. We'll see if I post my third option tomorrow?? Never can tell! So many things happen in a day that just might change my mind.

This one however, has been on my mind for a few days now, so I thought it was time.

After coming home from a long, work-out kind of a shopping trip, late (10:10pm), I was happy to get into my bed. Not just any bed...we know that not all beds are created equal.

I didn't get to sleep in it much Saturday night as I waited up for kids coming home from a band trip. I didn't get in bed until after 3:00am that night/morning, so the next night I was feeling quite grateful for my bed.

The week we stayed in Seattle was a hard week for many reasons, but one big reason was the bed. We suffered for a few nights and then decided we couldn't take it anymore and purchased a memory foam topper. The bed was much better after that but it still wasn't our bed. I think I'm becoming a bit picky about my bed! Ah Oh!

Some may wonder what kind a bed we have and want one just like it. I assure you that it is nothing special as to the brand or style or size. It's just ours, in our bedroom, in our home, in our part of the world. I've even complained about our bed before and wondered about buying a new one. I suppose that will happen some day, but I am still happy to have our bed (not as bad as some others we've slept on) to climb into at night.
