Fairyland Bed (bed / crib)
THEME Every element of this room
evokes images from the Enchanted
Forest. Tiny lights twinkle like fireflies;
curtains swing from real tree limbs and
sticker stones lay a pathway to the bed.
Ceramic mushrooms and birdhouses
are scattered throughout the room,
creating perfect hiding spots for fairies,
pixies and other magical friends. The
dominant color of both bedroom and
bathroom — a soft, feminine pink
— creates a soothing, yet wondrous
atmosphere. In the corner sits a large
tree with a child-size door at the base,
promising a child-size adventure on the
other side.
FOCUS Illuminated by two beautiful
flower-shaped lamps, the six-footdiameter
circular bed becomes the
centerpiece of the room. Imitation bark
on the bed’s exterior augments the
room’s theme and makes it easy for
a child to believe they have stepped
out of the suburbs and into the forest.
Three lily pads extending from tree
bark serve as both steps to the bed
and stools to sit on. Ready-made for
princess parties and sleepovers, the
bed easily accommodates two to three
small children or an adult. Twelvefoot
ceilings enhance the sense of
openness, while soft lighting and comfy
pillows make this a cozy reading and
resting spot.
STORAGE The shelves on the rear of
the bed and the two compartments in
the tree — one covered by a doubledoor,
the other by a miniature door —
supplement the storage capacity of the
room’s giant closet without interrupting
the theme.
GROWTH The bed meets standard
specifications for a baby crib, and
can accommodate both children and
adults. The railing is easily removed
when baby girl becomes a “big girl,”
and eventually,
a teenager.
SAFETY Rounded edges on all of the
room’s furnishings help prevent nasty
bumps, and lamps are positioned
well out-of-reach of small children.
The mattress is designed to fit snugly
to meet current crib safety standards,
while a 26-inch railing allows this bed
to act as a safe, comfortable and fun
play area.
