This is an interesting yet unfortunate post, everyone. rest in peace, the dearly departed Hemnes Four-Poster Bed by Ikea. This lovely as well as simple bed is on its method out of Ikea stores this spring, as well as it’s a cryin’ shame. Why, why do you discontinue that which I love, Ikea?! The great news is that you can still pick one up if you move quickly. I’m told they’re selling them off now, however you may discover one if you phone call Ikea or inspect online, as well as then make a beeline for those imposing industrial Ikea shelves.
I like this bed for its peaceful simplicity. It has an almost Shaker-esque high quality since of the no-nonsense building as well as simple lines. It has made its method into just about every style magazine — sometimes in its provided pine hue, sometimes painted out as well as embellished. Either way, it is a take at $389.
Calvin Klein house has a similar model, the 33 Canopy Bed, as well as decorators have been utilizing four-poster as well as canopy beds for years. A simple one such as this provides you all of the romance of a four-poster bed without the frilly princess feeling.
Try painting it black as well as dressing it with pure white linens. add a couple of decorative cushions, or much better yet — one long bolster. I likewise like the look of a mirror hung on the wall above the headboard. Something vintage as well as chippy would be a fantastic method to contrast the stark modernity of the bed. nevertheless you style it, this is the perfect bed of my dreams (for the moment…). Sigh…
