Life on Florida’s West Coast

Creating a Bedroom Refuge

I think a person’s bedroom should be their refuge. I like to be able to go into my room and relax. I have my bedroom just the way I like it, with soothing colors, soft fabrics and just about the most amazing mattress you could ever dream of owning. I have an armour and a vanity that I took years finding. My quilt was also the result of years of searching. The art on the walls is by one of my favorite living artists, Susan Loy. My bedroom is where I go for quiet and calm. I don’t keep a television in there, or even a phone — books, yes, but nothing more distracting than that.

One thing I have not found yet is a bed. Yes, I have the mattress, but I haven’t found the perfect headboard and footboard yet. I have a general look and feel in mind and I’ll know it when I see it. I don’t; ha e time to go from furniture store to furniture store in my quest. SO, I depend on online furniture stores to find what I want to complete my bedroom refuge.

Why not? Online shopping means I can look at more styles and models in one fell swoop. There is no driving around town, dealing with salespeople, and hoping I don’t get distracted by something else in the store. Plus, sites like Wholesale Furniture Brokers have more furniture to look at on one site than if I spent the time trekking to ten different local furniture galleries.
