would like to have a king size bed. what size does your bedroom need to be?

me

i really want a king size bed but i want it to fit i live in an apartment with the normal size bedroom
i dont want to take up the whole room i plan on getting a poster bed headboard my boyfreind says it about 12/12

Answer
In addition to thinking about how it will fit into your bedroom, also keep in mind getting it into your apartment. If you don't live on the main floor, you might have trouble. If you have to go up or down stairs, or around any sharp corners to get to your apartment, a king mattress and box spring set just might not fit. Also, will a king mattress/box springs fit through your bedroom door and your apartment door? They are huge. Just keep that in mind before making any purchases. You can bend and mash a mattress to a certain extent and you can get a split box spring set. I only mention this because I have that problem in my house--a stairway with a doorway at the bottom. We have a heck of a time even jamming a full size box springs through there. Good luck.

How much is a antique dixie bedroom set worth?

Elizabeth

I have a seven piece Dixie Bedroom set. It is a king size bed, two night stands, a mirror, and a dresser. All original set.There are gold pulls and the bed has four carved posters and sits up two feet off the ground. This set was my grandparents and has the Dixie stamp on the back of the pieces. I have no idea how much to sell this for or where to sell it. Any ideas?
This set is not antique. I would venture to call it vintage though. I can not find a date on it but do think it was made sometime in the late 40s/50s since it is a family heirloom from my grandparents. It has the Dixie stamp and an item number though and made in the U.S.A.

Answer
if it has a king size bed then it is unlikely to be an antique, furniture is supposed to be 100 years old before being called antique, and they did not use king size beds in 1910

Bedroom set off Craigslist?

Savannah

So, they are asking $700 for everything including the mattress. How much should I offer them for everything *but* the mattress? 500? 600? How much would the Matress and boxspring be worth? It's a Cal King set.

Answer
If it's a King Size bed, mattresses are pretty pricey for it. So, they probably want to sell it all together. Just email them first, and ask if they would be willing to sell the set without the mattress, before you name a price. But, yes I'm thinking 500 - 600.

how would you set up a bedroom to look romantic with no furniture but a king size bed?

rose petals laying around the bed and a path to the bed with candles burning around . Spray a light smell nothing too strong or over powering.

What did you pay for your bedroom set/suite ?

bedroom set king size bed image

Boosha

Will be in the next year or so looking for a new bedroom set (king size bed). Just curious what others have paid for bed, dresser, drawers, nightstand ... etc the works?

Answer
First of all, make sure your mattresses are very comfortable. Don't be afraid to lay on them while you are in the store. Next I agree with the previous person about not going all matchey-matchey. I bought a matching dresser, chest & media cabinet for around $2700.00. I don't have a problem with whether they are solid wood or not as long as the look good and are sturdy. I bought a couple of inexpensive bombay chests to use as bedside tables and painted them to match the walls & chair. I didn't buy a headboard but I bought a set of candle holders that hold 16 votive candles ( 8 each). These are flame-less candles of course but when they're lit at night it is very romantic. Also, I bought a pair of inexpensive lamps and painted them the color of the walls. Believe me I'm not a crafty person but I had an eye for what I wanted & it turned out very well. Just take your time & have an idea of what you want your room to look like. Also, don't overcrowd the room.

Can I use a queen headboard and footboard with a king size bed?

johnnybang

I have a King Size bed and was recently offered my Grandmother's Antique Mahogany Bedroom set, the problem is that it has a Queen Headbaord and Footboard. I was wondering if there is a way of making this work as no one in my family wants the furniture, and I would hate to see it leave the family.

Thanks,
Matt

Answer
check to see how it lines up with the mounting brackets on the bed frame

Where can a find a good quality, chocolate brown bedroom set with a modern feel to it?

bedroom set king size bed image

vanjita

I am looking for something chocolate brown with a modern feel to it for a king size bed. I've found some nice sets but all were really poorly built. I am looking for something made out of real wood with corner block reinforcements in the drawers and screws, not just staples and glue. Am I being too picky? Do they just not make good quality furniture anymore? Please help.

Why don't any of the cool and funky comforter sets come in King Size?

Curiousmin

I am young and looking for a fun and funky bedding set, but I have a king size bed. All the sets I like seem to go up to Queen, but no king. Is the assumption that people who have big beds are boring and would rather have "hotel like sets" with dull colors? Does King size = Conservative???

Answer
Try overstock.com. Shipping is only $2.95. The link is below. There's a handful of funky bedding sets on there that are king size. But yes, in general, king size = conservative! I think the assumption is that if you have enough money to have a large bed and a home with a bedroom large enough to hold it, then you must not be very young or hip. And truth be told, stores probably don't sell a lot of the funky patterns in king size. The internet is probably your best bet. I'm having a similar problem finding toddler-themed sheets for my little girl in full-size. Everything is twin. Good luck!

Will the master bedroom in on post housing for Junior NCO's fit a king size bedroom set?

Apple Juic

I know all housing are different, but are more or less the same size. E-5 on post housing.... will the bedroom fit a king size set? (bed, dresser, chest, and nightstand?) By the way it is just a two bedroom.
If we get rid of the dresser would it fit?

Answer
It can be a very tight fit in some locations and not in others. A King size bed will take up a lot of room .Housing sizes really do vary from base to base there is no standards at all. You should keep the dresser and put it in your closet or 2nd bedroom if you don't have children or somewhere as storage. Or use the chest as a coffee table/storage in another room. Sometimes even closets aren't the greatest and a dresser is needed.

We have lived in several places over the years, including 2 bedrooms. One place was 22 x 12 with walk in closet that was out of this world and another place was more like 11 x 11 and a very tight fit.
