o make sure that we're on the right track in searching for furnishings to
create our dream bedroom, here are some basic tips and advices:
• Decide what best expresses your personal style. Contemporary or
traditional, European or American, big or small.
• Determine your budget. Go out for shopping with a number in mind less than
what you can really afford. At the end, generally we push our limits
anyway.
• Measure your space to see what pieces you can accommodate. It is a tendency
to buy big pieces or many items forgetting the space we have. It is not a good
idea to fill your room with furniture so much that at the end you end up trying
to find the space to walk around them. Generally the set prices are cheaper than
the sum of individual prices. If there is a promotion for the full set and you
have space for them, go for it.
• A well-equipped bedroom generally consists of a bed, a nightstand or two, a
dresser and/or chest and a mirror. Many of today's bedrooms feature an armoire,
too. Don’t buy anything you don’t need.
• The bed is generally the focal point of the bedroom so we'll probably want
to select it first. There are many choices for type and size… Platform bed, high
bed etc. and Eastern King, California King, Queen and Full size are the most
known ones.
• When shopping for pieces that aren't upholstered, such as dressers, chests
and tables (known as "case good" in the furniture language), find out what they
are made of – is it hardwood or softwood? Quality pieces are available in both
hard and soft woods. Is it wood veneer or laminated.. There are many choices out
there.
• With any wood pieces, an examination of the construction will reveal a lot
about the quality. Lift a corner. Does it feel heavy and sturdy? Check out the
corners. Do they feel strong and secure? • Open and shut the drawers. Do they
open and close easily? Do they fit perfectly? We want to make sure they don't
sag. The drawer must feel strong and sturdy. If they are shaking easily, they
cannot hold too much stuff in them.
• Examine the finish of the piece. The finish should be smooth, without
cracks or bubbles. Try to get something water resistant. If you spill something
on the night stand unknowingly, in the morning you may get a bad surprise seeing
that the wood absorbed the water and there is a nasty bump on the night
stand.
• Check the hardware, e.g. handles and pulls – they should be secure and
strong with no rough or sharp edges.
• And after you've made your major furniture selections, remember to add
accessories, such as lamps, photo frames, rugs and wall décor.
• Most importantly, enjoy yourself.
