Bed Crowns & Canopies

When I was a little girl I wanted a canopy bed...one all to myself!! I didn't want to share it with anyone. (I love you, sister!!!) I never got my wish, but all the precious memories my sister and I made for the 18 years that we shared a bedroom are worth a lot more than fancy beds.

Well, I am all grown up, and then some! I could totally have a canopy bed now. It's funny how we change, isn't it? I don't think I want one any more. But, I still enjoy thinking about how it might have looked if my wish had come true. Here are a few beautiful canopy beds, bed crowns (I do love these), and painted beds from "The Well Appointed House".



This daybed would be great in a guest bedroom

I don't get the little bitty bedside lamps, and I personally would not have chosen this bed crown for this gorgeous painted headboard. I still like the romantic feel.

I like the old cracked finish and the color combo on this one

This would be nice in a beach house with lots of white linen spilling out

Pagoda style, anyone? I think these would only fit a doggy bed!

Any little guy would like this circus tent crown

How scrumptious is this "Layla Grayce" bed crown?

A mirrored crown from "Horchow". I'm not sure how the modern shape of the crown and the romantic lace work together???? Something bothers me just a tad. Is it just me?

What a glamorous bed for a little princess

I can see this in a mountain cabin - it looks like the bed frame is wrapped in rope-love it!

These last two hand-painted metal beds make my heart flutter

  4. I agree with you on the mirrored crown with the lace....they are just a design disaster together.
