In Sync with a Canopy Bedroom Set


OK, for some of you, those of you with the budget and the space, it’s well worth considering a canopy bedroom set. Essentially you’re buying a complete look for your bedroom, not just the canopy beds but all the bedroom furniture to go with it to make a real statement in your bedroom. Complementary furniture might include night stands, chest of drawers, wardrobes or armoires and dressers with or without mirrors.

Clearly this is going to be the most expensive option and should not be considered for those buyers who are short of space, because all this furniture will not only take up a lot of space but it will also make a very strong statement in your room and that’s not going to work well if the space starts to look crowded. Give yourself plenty of room so each of the items has a chance to express itself. Bear in mind also that with a bedroom set the style of the set is going to pretty much dictate the style of the room. There’s no point in buying a sleek contemporary canopy bed set and then trying to shoehorn it into an area that has a quaint country feel to it. Everything will clash and look appalling.

Canopy Bedroom Sets from Amazon

So lets start with the Sahara California king sized bed set. At the top end of most buyers budgets this elegant collection consists of the king sized canopy bed, an armoire, dresser with mirror and two bedside tables. In a dark hardwood finish this set has an old world antique feel to it and with its coffee coloring, with hints of cherry will lend a touch of class to your bedroom. This is a perfect example of a product that needs to be placed in the right sized bedroom where it has room to express itself and needs sympathetic interior decor to bring out its best. As you can see from the photo a simple white paint decoration and classy wood flooring works very well. At close to $5000 this is not a purchase for the faint hearted, in fact don’t expect to find too many cheap canopy bed sets.

Next up is this farmhouse bed & dresser set from Pottery Barn. I particularly like the honey colored finish to the wood.This two piece set has been designed in the Shaker style and is simple and stylish. They’ve created the piece to look romantic with or without a canopy cover, and with it’s clean straight lines I think this bed could work well in a number of settings. Again it’s made with tough hardwoods so it won’t fall apart on you. You can see clearly that the bed lends itself to a more casual country type interior decor in complete contrast to the more ornate example above. If you wish you can buy a sheer canopy drape to go with the bed.canopy bed sets

This last canopy bedroom set, is a queen sized six piece set, and I think offers a nice compromise between the first two examples.Again we have the dark coffee colored finish but, like the second example, with clean straight lines, perfect for a more modern setting. The accompanying furniture continues the contemporary feel and with such a set you can afford to be a bit more adventurous with the decoration in the rest of the room. Perhaps some strong color on an accent wall would work well. At around $2400 I really like this bedroom set.queen-canopy-bedroom-set
