Delightful Daybeds

Daybeds are the perfect combination between comfortable seating and ideal nap-time location. After situating your daybed in a nap-worthy spot like in a relaxing sun room or on a porch, it's time to give it some personality. Load up your daybed with throw pillows to fill in some of the depth, making it easier to comfortably sit on.

Beachy Blues

If there's one thing you need to know about me, it's that there's probably no better word to describe my style than "beachy". Anything from a throw pillow to a piece of furniture to an outfit, it's all just better when it's got a beachy feel (if I do say so myself).

So, needless to say, I nearly had to catch my breath when I came across these perfectly beachy bedrooms. Someday (hopefully sooner rather than later) my bedroom will be as beautiful as these.
