If you are looking to maximise your storage space without cluttering your room with extra furniture you should certainly consider the full storage bed.

Whether you are furnishing a guest room or a main bedroom the chances are that you could do with more storage space. We all see the pictures in magazines of perfectly arranged rooms, and they are never cluttered with excess furniture, so how do they manage it? Well the answer is clever storage and this is exactly what the full storage bed is.

Before you dash out and buy a full storage bed it is worth having a think about what you would like to store in the drawers. The reason for this is because not all the storage is the same.

There are two main things to look out for. Firstly, the depth of the drawers is an important factor. If you want to store extra duvets and pillows then it is worth looking at the deep style drawers. These are often awkward items to find homes for, so under the bed can be a perfect solution to a current storage problem.

If however you already have the perfect place for these items and you are looking for storage for clothing then there are shallower drawers, this does not mean that you will loose any storage space it will simply be divided up differently.

The second thing to consider is how you access the storage space. Measurements are key to getting the correct full size storage bed. When you have drawers under a bed you need to be able to access these drawers, so you cannot put the bed in a corner as you have to be sure that you have left enough space around the bed to access all your belongings.

If you do not have the room to be able to open the drawers then there is one other option for your full size storage bed. This is the style where the base which supports the mattress lifts up allowing access from the foot of the bed. This is a great design, but best for items which you no not want to get at too often.

Once you have your full size storage bed you will soon realise that this is a great way to keep items safely stored out of sight and still accessible.

I love the futon chair bed, I am an absolute convert. To start with I thought that they would be uncomfortable both as a chair and a bed, but I could not have been more wrong.

I first looked at these when I was trying to make my sons room more practical and appealing for him. He was never particularly interested in books and he was starting to fall behind slightly at school with his reading. However much I sat with him, he was never really interested. I had started by looking at desks and tables to put in his room, but they all seemed expensive and I was unsure about spending money on something which would not get used.

Someone suggested to me that I should create a space for him to explore books on his own, rather than a place to learn. Not being convinced I simply went out and bought a futon chair bed, thinking that if he never sat on it at least I hadn’t wasted too much money and I could always use it as a bed when his cousin came to stay.

There was a special offer on at the time for one with footballs on, so that was the one we got. As soon as it arrived he wanted to sit in it. Within a couple of days I noticed that whenever he was in his room he was sitting in it. It was as if he suddenly had a seat to wind down in. At first he would sit and play with his Transformers or other toys, however, within a couple of weeks he was sitting and flicking through books and kids magazines. I could not believe the change that it made.

It is very easy to over supervise your kids on the things that you think are important. But every time when you sit down with them they feel some sort of pressure to perform and start to find it stressful. By giving them a space to do the same thing, on their own, without feeling you eyes boring into them, they suddenly get what you have been trying to achieve. Most children want to learn and they want to please.

The futon chair bed really is the best investment you can make for a child’s room. It is a cheap and practical piece of furniture, but above all it appeals to them and it is a piece of furniture which is totally theirs. I could never have imagined that such a simple thing would so drastically improve my son’s concentration.
