Belle Maison’s Delightful Junior Bedroom Furniture

Monday, June 2nd, 2008

Belle Maison’s Delightful Junior Bedroom Furniture Furnishing children’s bedrooms can be a challenge; you want hardwearing, durable furniture, versatile enough to adapt to your child’s needs as they grow older.

The designers at Belle Maison are sympathetic to these needs so, not only is the bedroom furniture in the Junior Belle Maison stunning, it is also very practical.

The best thing about their cot bed , is that once your baby grows up, it can be transformed into a gorgeous sleigh bed, as featured here, which will be appropriate for many years.

When your child is ready, the barred protection can be removed and replaced with the free bed-sides that come with the cot.

The beautiful soft white colour will blend with any décor, so if you want to redecorate as your child gets older, this bed will still perfectly compliment your new decor.

Size: 91 x 158 x 76 cm. This product requires a 140 x 70 cm mattress not included in the price. £495.

Another two fabulous designs in the Belle Maison Junior range are:

The Cheeky Charlie Bunk Bed with Heart is extremely popular, probably because of the intricately carved details and curved soft edges.

The Double Trouble Classic Bunk Bed, which although more plain, is equally attractive.

Both of these bunk beds can be split at a later date into two single beds that look identical.

Cheeky Charlie - L201 x W105 x H192 cm £995. Double Trouble - H192 x W105 x L201 cm £945.
