Wooden beds have been around for centuries, but today, the choices in types of wood, as well as the design and style of the bed, are astounding. No matter the style you want to use in your bedroom, you’re sure to find a wooden bed that will set off your room perfectly.

If you really want to make a statement, try a canopy bed with a carved headboard.  Kings and queens of old slept in these massive beds, which lend a feeling of security and aura of wealth. They can also be surrounded by hangings of various colours and fabrics, from sheer netting to heavy velvet drapes, turning them into a central design element as well.

For your little prince or princess, a wooden bed is a natural choice. The variety of beds available from children can help you design their smaller spaces. Choose a divan bed with storage beneath if you need space, or even a wooden platform bed with a full set of drawers.

If you want to go green, wooden beds are the perfect choice. Choose a new bed made from sustainable woods like bamboo or mango, or an older bed that’s been repurposed.  Designers are even creating wooden beds from cast-off building materials, like the doors and window frames from old buildings. After cleaning and re-painting or staining, these treasures from a bygone day have a future in the present.

Wooden beds can be purchased as bare wood, so you can stain or paint them to suit your décor exactly. Or, of course, you can purchase them already finished, take them home, and enjoy them that day. Wooden beds offer the ultimate in flexibility and environmental responsibility, and are the perfect choice for your home.
