Romantic Ideas for Daybeds

Even contemporary daybeds have had it rough over the years. People have difficulty seeing them as practical pieces of furniture, and much less as an appealing item. But they provide plenty of use and in many cases, are infinitely better sleeping options than a blow up mattress or futon. This is especially true for a daybed with trundle. So how can you take your daybed and transform it into a romantic hotspot?

You will find that both metal daybeds and wooden daybeds alike work well as long as they are treated right. It also does not matter whether you have a daybed with trundle or not, so there’s no need to worry about the type. First, consider its location. Is it out in the open, under full sunlight? Instead, try moving it to a place that can act as a cozy love nest for you and your partner. You want a spot that is little dimmer; a place that would be perfect for lighting candles when night approaches and the stars come out. If you have a skylight so the two of you can see the stars, that may be the perfect place for the daybed.

It’s position, though, is not the only thing to consider. You’ll want to utilize sensual floral patterns or rich colors when it comes to bedding. You can use color combinations such as deep reds and creamy whites, or opt for girly pastels like gentle greens and powdery blues. Examine some contemporary daybeds by the Fashion Bed Group to get a good idea of what you might like and what sort of bedding would match best with your favorite choices. If you want accessories, try items that have tassles, fringes, and flounces. The overall look can offer an antique style reminiscent of courtly love before the modern, everyday dinner and a movie routine.
