A Guide to Finding the Perfect Bedroom Set | Furniture Buying Guide



Are you sick and tired of falling asleep looking at your unmatched bed, dresser, armoire and nightstands? Have you skipped your bedroom on your home tours because of its unmatched furniture? Are you just ready for a new look in the bedroom? If you answered yes to any of these questions, then it's time to think about a new bedroom set. With so many great options out there, you are bound to fin a perfect set for your bedroom. Follow these simple tips to get started.



What is your style? The first step in buying a new bedroom set is deciding what your style is. Do you prefer a more traditional décor, with detailed carved wood, fancy upholstery and rich fabrics? Or are you more inclined to opt for modern pieces with clean lines, cool colors and sleek design?

Choosing your style is a perfect place to start as it sets to tone for the entire room. Think of what makes you feel the most comfortable and choose pieces based on this. Your bedroom should be a reflection of yourself and by figuring out what décor you prefer, you will be one step closer to creating your ideal sleep space.

Pick a Material. After you have decided on a style an equally important decision has to be made: what material do you want your bedroom set to be made from? With so many amazing options on the market, this can be a bit overwhelming. The important thing to keep in mind is the way that you use your furniture and your lifestyle. For example, if you are a newlywed couple trying to save some money, a simple wood set with little ornate details may work perfectly for you. If you are a busy couple with children and pets, an easy-to-clean surface may be the best option for you. Likewise, if you are a lover of high fashion, a richly textured wood with fine details may be best for you. Whatever your lifestyle, choosing the right material for your room can be a huge decision.

To Match or Not to Match? That is the real question. Bedroom sets come in a variety of sizes and shapes today. Most commonly though, they consist any combination of the following: a bed frame, a nightstand or bedside table, a dresser with or without a mirror, and an armoire. Not all sets include all of these pieces and certainly some will contain more, these are the typical pieces found in bedroom sets. It is up to you if you want to have all of your pieces match. Some people prefer the ease of shopping for a set all at once and like the fact that they can get everything all together and in the same style. There are often price breaks on sets as opposed to buying each piece separately. Other people don't have the budget to afford all pieces at once or just prefer to build up their bedroom set one piece at a time. Whatever category you fall in to, there are so many different pieces and styles of bedroom furniture available that you are certain to find a set—matching or unmatching—for you!

The decision to purchase a new bedroom set is a huge one. Thinking through all of your choices and options before stepping into a store or surfing the web is a wise move. Keep in mind your own personal style and preferences and remember that your bedroom is where you spend the majority of your time. Why not make it the oasis that you have always dreamed of?
