I typically follow the established rules of bedroom furniture placement.
Rule #1: Always place the bed on the wall opposite of the door. Logic is that you walk into the bedroom and your focal point is your lovely bed.
Rule #2: Don't place your bed in front of a window. (I think this may be more of a mystical rule. Like bad ju-ju may come in your window at night and give you strange dreams...)
Rule #3: You must have a headboard, whether it be part of your bed or some sort of artistic piece that acts as a headboard.
Don't ask me who made up these rules. What I've found in decorating my home is that some rules are meant to be broken!
For example: We have no headboard and our platform bed is placed directly in front of the main window in our bedroom. Which happens to be a gorgeous tri-window with an amazing view of the vibrant red and orange fall leaves on the old trees on our street.
So it is not a headboard. Or a piece of art. But it is rather artistic.
Oh, and I do have strange dreams at times...but I don't blame the window.
{Probably is the glass of wine and plate of pasta I ate before going to bed!}
What is outside your bedroom window?
