Dropping by a local furniture store, taking a virtual visit to an online retailer or flipping through the pages of the latest children’s bedroom catalogues or magazines will provide you with a ton of inspiration for everything from multi-purpose childrens room furniture to accessories and general room decoration concepts.
childrens bedroom furniture stores are an excellent place to start. Today’s furniture manufacturers are coming up with some great multi-functional pieces with kid’s needs in mind.
Double and triple function furnishings are a real blessing. Any childrens bedroom furniture item that has double or triple duty status is tops in my books. You may wish to consider a custom childrens bedroom design that features a sleep, study and storage unit all in one.
Now I realize your toddler isn’t old enough to have homework but his or her time will come soon enough. It’s wise to consider both current and future needs when looking at custom childrens bedroom design furnishings.
Convertible and multi-purpose furnishings can save floor space and enhance the play value of a children’s bedroom. You no longer have a need for extra furniture that takes up valuable space. A further bonus is that it’s usually less expensive to buy one opposed to two pieces of furniture.
Great 2-in-1 designs like bunk beds that reassemble as single beds and seating units with concealed storage are ideal for a children’s bedroom.
When looking to make a major childrens bedroom furniture purchase, it’s best to comparison shop furniture sales and give some thought to how the furniture will be able to serve your child’s needs in the years to come.
Convertible furnishings can be purchased for baby right up to teen rooms. Today’s cribs often come as a combination crib and storage unit. Features may include a standard crib with rails attached on one side to a multi-drawer chest. Here, both the crib and chest would sit on a foundation of dual blanket drawers.
Once out of the crib, your toddler can sleep on an extension mattress (and spring) that is added once the rails and chest are removed. On some models this is standard. Other models have this as an option only. Consider the price difference of both.
Such a configuration offers up years of usefulness - a single bed and a freestanding chest of drawers. Other chest/crib combos feature a detachable changing station on top of the storage unit. If considering this design, give some thought as to the most comfortable height for changing your baby. Most are between 30 to 40” high.
Trundle beds (with a roll-out sleep unit) are ideal for sleepovers, extra storage and additional play opportunities. You can remove the bottom mattress and use the frame for off season storage or for a train or car track set up.
Topping the list of the best custom childrens bedroom design units is a loft system. Features of a loft system include storage and study areas in addition to a sleep area. A great 3-in-1 loft arrangement may also feature book shelves and reading lights.
