Parm Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 If you had a choice between two bedroom sets which one would you choose? I have a dilemma, I like the dark cherry wood, but, I also like the wrought iron on the medium wood set. I'm finally upgrading my bedroom set after 26 years!! Which one would "show off" quilts better?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parm Posted March 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 ooops here's the other one, not sure how to add 2 pics to same msg! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraJ Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Only one pix showed up. Are both colors in the pix - lighter on left - darker on right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LauraJ Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Ok - having seen both now - I like the darker set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SYork Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 This is my choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antoinette Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Both are beautiful, I like the medium wood. But I think the dark one would show case your quilts better, if for no other reason than it doesn't have a foot board. But that's just mho.

yankiequilter Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 This would be my choice because of all the wrought iron curly q's that would have to be dusted on the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s.waits Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 They're both very nice, but I like this one better. It is a more classic design, where the other one seems more trendy, not to mention heavy and chunky. That padded headboard also calls my name. I'm sure you'll be happy no matter which one you choose!

lindasewsit Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I like this one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BethDurand Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I like the other one better. Too many places for dust to collect in this one. I don't dust if I can help it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neher-in-law5 Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I would go with this one. Easier to keep clean, good place to show the quilts, looks like it would be easier to move to rearrange furniture, and the looks seem to be a longer lasting design. Have fun. To post two pictures to the same thread, use the blue reply button on the bottom right of the post or thread. The treat it like a new post/thread. Works great and you can add as many pictures as you want to when you want to. I like the pictures in separate posts instead of multiple ones on the first post because details are easier to see in the single posts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachside Quilter Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I vote for the cherry. It is more timeless, IMO :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joyce Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 The one with no flootboard would show the quilts more.MHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustSewSimple Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 The top one is the best as it has a cleaner look to it however, I hate making those platform beds up. The iron one is going to have extreme dusting issues in all those curves. If the top one can in a standard bed (not platform) it would be the easiest to maintain and look classy.

Neher-in-law5 Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 Sylvia, you must work too hard, I would just make the bed normal with that platform and then have the quilt hang over all edges as the finish! How else would get be able to show off all the pretty fabrics and stitching?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathG Posted March 25, 2012 Report Share Posted March 25, 2012 I like the first one, i like the clean lines. I also think the bed without an end board will show off your quilts better !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennan100 Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I'm liking the first one. I think it will show the quilts better, less dusting, and a wider variety of quilt styles will look great on it. Loving that padded headboard, too! let us know which you choose!

Quilting Heidi Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I like the one with the wrought iron. It is a bigger set but it has some openness to it so a lighter look. The other is nice too though so I don't think you'll go wrong with picking the one that calls out your name! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenquilts Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I love love love the first one with the darker wood..very elegant. But they are both really really nice. You can't make a bad choice:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheri Butler Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 My vote is for the 2nd one. I dont know why, but the first looks kind of masculine to me. Maybe it's the leather look on the headboard. The 2nd, has a "comfy homey" look to it. Dark & light quilts with both show up with that med wood. You have a tough choice. They really are both beautiful sets!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
connieb Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 I like the second one. But they both will be gorgeous(sp). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anette D. Posted March 26, 2012 Report Share Posted March 26, 2012 Although both are beautiful, I prefer the second (lighter) one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
