Who knew picking a headboard could be so hard? (A moreheadboards.com post)

.
From all the beds I've ever slept in the one the one that has been the most comfortable is my mother's. There's just something about her bed....it's huge, cushioned in all the right places yet firm and very dramatic looking with it's solid dark wood headboard. Now our king size bed is still waiting for me to pick the right headboard (I admit I am very picky) and till I find just the right one, our bed will just have to look "un-glam"!

I have been window-headboard shopping online and have found a few I fancy, like this practical bookcase design....

But with 2 little ones who love flipping books I can picture how many times in a day I would be cleaning up book piles on the bed!

There is one design I've fallen head over heels with though, it's this gorgeous Merlot finish bookcase cum storage headboard.


Now that beats my Mommy's headboard any day but trying to get Hubby to accept the big chop out of the bank balance with this one will not be a walk in the park....so I guess the search continues!

With all the designs out there it's hard to narrow down especially as I have found a few headboards that I like but sadly they're either headboards for queen size beds or headboards for full size beds.
To look on the positive side, atleast I'm sure that I want something with a 100% wood design. I'm not a tufted headboard person and prefer to stay away from the metal designs, so that narrows the search down a little!

I'm just glad that buying a headboard is not an annual task but if I don't find one for our bed soon, it might just end up being a year long task!

Have your kids ever begged for bunk beds? (A MoreBunkBeds.com post)

.
Growing up I always thought a bunk bed would be fun. Sadly my sister and I never did have one (I guess our parents thought there would be sleepless nights debating who would get the bunk on top!) and you may think this sounds crazy but I really did ask Hubby to consider putting one in our guest room! (I'm sure you can picture the look of absolute shock on his face when he heard those words tumble out of my mouth!)
Since that eager proposal was squashed down as quickly as it flew out, I'm now impatiently waiting for Bunny girl and Bunny Boo to grow older to beg ask for a bunk bed.

Practically this would be a great option considering the space we'd save. Plus have you seen the classy full over full bunk beds they have out there?


What a change from the options we had as kids. Will you believe that I even found a bunk bed with a slide attached to it?!


I'm sure if we had this in our home, Bunny girl would be pleading to go to bed by 3pm!

If you are scouting out bunk bed and bunk bed mattress options, check out the vast selection on the MoreBunkBeds.com site. I'm sure you will have just as much fun as the kids while picking out the right set for their room.
