Show me your bedroom

Pleaaaase lol

Ever since the great IKEA flop of 2018 I have no bedroom furniture. Literally working with laundry baskets and Rubbermaid bins on the floor

I've been debating what kind of dressers I should get for months, plus I haven't seen anything I like when we go shopping

Can you guys either show me what your master bedrooms look like or throw out a few suggestions for furniture stores?

We've been to Macys raymour and basset. Even tried gothic.

Thanks guys

Re: Show me your bedroom

Ok this is embarrassing because my bed is a complete mess (it’s late here!) right now.

External Image

I had my bed handmade with walnut wood. The rest of the bedroom has Ikea Pax. I do not use dressers, and there are no closets.

And I picked out the duvet because it looks like little wine glasses. The cats are all around. One is a bit sick, so she sits with me a lot.

ETA: I had nightstands made to go with the bed.

I can never post pics on here but I have a sleigh bed that is such a dark espresso you have to look very closely to see it isn't black. We have the coordinating dressers and nightstands. It's the first furniture I bought when I moved into my own apartment in 2010. It's from Bob's and has honestly held up relatively well after all these years.

Ours is a mess right now because we are painting the walls a light green. We bought our bedroom set from Thomasville keeping in mind that this might be our only set we ever have . We got it when we bought our house 10 years ago. It is traditional/contemporary dark wood. DH and I each got our own dresser, each got a night stand and a headboard for our bed that has high posts. I am not into fads or trendy furniture. Classic is my trademark.

Right now I just have IKEA furniture so I'm no help. LOL


But when I was married I believe we had the same set below. Which included the dresser and mirror. I don't remember the name of it but it looks exactly like it. But we had an iron bed amd not the one in the picture.

We have the Leighton set from Ashley. It's held up really well and is definitely well made (dh does carpentry so he's a stickler). Although if I could do it again I might do a nice upholstered bed frame.

Click on the image on a website/your album you want and hit copy.

Go to insert web image. Make sure you take out the http that comes up in the little window that pops up. Then click paste.

All done.

Re: Show me your bedroom

Thanks guys-

I feel like the drawers on all furniture I see are really small and not deep at all. Am I wrong? Idk I feel I could fit Two sweatshirts or four t shirts per drawer-?

Maybe I was spoiled by the furniture my parents had gotten me when I was 13- from gothic. I had a wide dresser with six super deep drawers, an armoire with one hanging rod and the other side was three shelves and three deep drawers on the bottom. And I mean deep drawers. I could fit four bulky hooded sweatshirts in each one

I guess I have to use our small closet space better

If anyone else wants to share pics I'll be here Chat Icon

I know you said you don’t want Ikea, but their Pax wardrobe system is amazing and you can design it yourself. I use it for my closets and for my linen closet (no closets where I live). I designed it myself and I’m very happy with it.

I don't know, my dresser drawers for my mirrored dresser are pretty big- except the top two which I use for underwear, bras, socks, etc. The tall dresser which my DH uses only has two large drawers on the bottom. The top ones are more shallow. This is from Raymour and Flanagan. Maybe you could find a bed with storage underneath for some extra space?

Peter Andrews and One Ten Home Furnishings in Farmingdale both have a great selection, quality furniture and decent prices.

I would avoid Ashley. Horrible reviews in regards to furniture quality and customer service.
