Seize the Day {Bed}

Daybeds are the design world’s great multi-taskers—changing that small space into a cozy den, study and extra bedroom all in one. A daybed can make the smallest space the most versatile room in your home.

Dual function daybeds are good solutions for small spaces. During the day they’re couches, and at night they can easily convert into extra space for sleepover guests, extra seating for parties and a nice space to curl up & read a book!

Plus, day bed style options have changed over the last few years… remember these?

It used to be that these were your options… Now there are so many modern and classically styled daybeds to choose from.

Check these out:

1. Window Daybed by West Elm

2. Simone Daybed by Crate & Barrel

3. Milan Daybed by Macy’s

4. Morgan Daybed by Macy’s

5. Jackson Daybed by Room & Board

6. Lampert Lounger by Jonathan Adler

7. Twilight Sofa by Design Within Reach

8. Bench by Lee Furniture

Now for some inspiration…

I would love a nook to read & look at magazines… wouldn’t you? Have a day bed? How did you make it work within your space? DO Tell.

    Love that West Elm bed! I like how they’ve used it as a bench on the end of the blue bed. That’d be a perfect spot for my pups.

  • ☀️ Sea + Sun + Smiles We drove across the state last week for a vacay with family! Had a great time and I was so in the moment, I only took a few photos! We had incredible weather and basically lived our best lives all day on the beach and in the pool together! . . I have had a few messages asking where I have been on insta…. The truth is, I have been soaking up time with my kids, working on a few home updates and spending as much time at the beach and in our pool
