Benches in the Bedroom


via Apartment Therapy 

Right now I am doing two bedroom designs and both of them will have a bench at the end of the bed. I've been browsing the internet for inspiration. 

There are so many ways to get this look. You can use a bench, two chairs, a sofa or loveseat, two stools, poufs.... I've seen it all!

Here are some of the images I'm swooning over.

Speaking of great bedroom benches I found this one for one my clients and I love it. The price and size great and you could re-cover the cushion in a fun fabric.

  1. I love chairs in the bedroom. I dont always want to lay on my bed. When I'm getting ready I plop myself on the bench and put on my shoes, earrings ect. Its a nice addition to any bedroom. The second pic is my favorite!

  5. Great post! I love benches, stools, etc. at the end of a bed! Great place to put tomorrow's clothes, magazines, whatever! It looks great and serves a practical purpose. I recently used two leather cube ottomans for a design, at the foot of the bed. I love the inspiration photos you chose!

  12. I love a bench at the foot of the bed. I actually made one a few months ago and it's great to throw a pair of jeans or put on your shoes.

  22. Love this! My hubby and I just bought a storage ottoman for the foot of our bed and we LOVE it. If you ever need a high quality ottoman for cheap, here's the one we bought:

  24. I love this look! My favorite version of it is two upholstered x-benches, like the ones from Ballard. One day I'll have enough money saved up to make it happen in my room!

  25. I think by the time I finish my room there is going to be an over abundance of sitting room. I love it all. My favorite is the peach chaise!

  26. Girl, you sure know how to pick out some images for inspiration. I LOVE me a bench. Period. I posted about these AMAZING burlap benches today that I saw at the Nashville Flea Market recently. How fun would that be? My hub might have cried if I bought another bench so I resisted. But I snapped a bunch of pics, lol!! xoxo Shelli
