Bedroom Storage Benches

Are you running out of room in your room? Do you have more blankets than fit in your linen closet? Are your kids having a hard time keeping their room organized? Are you looking for a reading bench for your bedroom and could really use a little more space for storing things? Well, if you answered yes to any of these questions, there is a solution just for you. It is a storage bench for your bedroom. Many people overlook the value of having a bench that doubles as a storage unit. Other people may not realize the value in having a bench in their bedroom. There are many reasons to incorporate this wonderful piece of furniture into your room now.

A bedroom storage bench can add very valuable space for your room, and can also add beauty to your decor. Storage benches come in all shapes and sizes. They can be placed at the foot of your bed or in front of a window. These pieces of furniture are wonderful ways to store things that are not needed all of the time like blankets and linens. They can also be used to hold shoes or other articles of clothing that are worn only during certain seasons.

Now, when considering your options, you need to take a few things into consideration. The first is what size do you need. How big is your room? The right size bench will flow perfectly with its surroundings. A bench that is too small will look odd and out of place. One that is too large will become an obstacle to get around and make your room look small as well. When considering size measure your space look at options and see what will fit the best with a piece of cardboard or other material to mimic the bench. If your bench is going in front of a window make sure you will like the height as well.

The next thing you need to consider is your decor. People often make the mistake of purchasing a piece of furniture that does not quite flow with its surrounding. Remember though, not all furniture in a room has to be the same exact style. Use your senses to make a decision. Sometimes furniture like benches do well at standing out a little bit in a room, while other times depending on the situation, a piece just needs to fit in and not be noticed or stand out. Remember that these are pieces of furniture and come in just about every style you could imagine, from all varieties of wood, to metal, or having cushions on top. The selection is nearly endless.

The third thing to think about is what do you want the storage function to be. Do you just need a spot to store bed linens, or are you looking for more? Benches with storage take on many shapes, one bench that may house your linens, would not be what you want if you want to store shoes or boxes with old memories inside. Another function you may want is that this piece of furniture not only has enclosed storage, but may have display areas underneath the bench as well. The final area of consideration for function to think about is what kind of top do you need. Are you going to be sitting on it often, or do you want the beauty of solid wood or other material. If it is in front of a window consider a sitting style bench and if you will sit on it infrequently like for changing clothes a hard top will do just fine.

After deciding what is right for find what you need and incorporate it into your room and you will, without doubt be happy for having the function and beauty of a storage bench in your bedroom. You will probably decide your kids need one too!

Kids Storage Benches

Kids rooms are almost always cluttered, and there is not always a lot of space in a kids room to store things. There are many organizers available, but why not consider a storage bench for your child. Think about where kids spend most of their time in their room. If they are not sleeping, they are playing on the floor. A bench in your child's room will give them a spot to sit and read, play or even do a puzzle. When they have friends over they can even sit on the bench and talk. All of this is great considering inside the bench are toys, books, games, you name it. You will no longer have to walk into your kids room thinking a tornado went through. Not only that but it will add a nice look to a room just as it would yours.
