Ash Furniture for the Bedroom
Ash furniture offers a lot in terms of variety for people looking to deck up their bedroom for artistically designed furniture, albeit at low costs. Learn more about the various pieces of this furniture, ranging from cots to bedside tables, which you can choose from for a contemporary bedroom.
Ash furniture makes a welcome alternative to oak if you prefer your furniture in solid wood but still need to remain within a budget. It is amongst the more popular furniture timbers with manufacturers, because though it is a hard wood its flexibility and elasticity lends itself to lots of possibilities in contemporary design. Users too prefer ash wood because of its comparatively low cost, trouble free maintenance and its attractive light appearance as well as the rustic appeal of its distinctive grains. Ash wood looks particularly eye-catching when the grains are highlighted by oils or varnish. Bedroom furniture in ash wood, for the no-nonsense family is a durable and attractive option, and white ash, particularly, makes a fine substitute for the more expensive oak.
You could design a sturdy ash wood double bed for the master bedroom with a high, half moon shaped head board. The legs could be the regular, square cross section variety to keep with the rustic image or if you would like some additional storage space you might prefer to have roll-out drawers built under both sides of the bed. This additional storage space actually adds an attractive woody effect below your comforter and cushions. Design the rest of your bedroom suite in Ash furniture as well, to create a well planned out, modular effect.
The bedside tables, on either side of the bed, could be constructed on castors so that the tables can be smoothly rolled away to give you easier access to the storage under the bed. This simple replacement for legs would provide you with at least 30% more storage space. The bedside tables could have two or three drawers, or an open shelf space beneath which could be a small cabinet, depending on your storage requirements. Or you could opt for a tiered look with a small, quarter circle shelf above the cabinet space to stand your reading lamp on. This design would also match the curve of the bed head. The light coloured Ash furniture allows you the luxury of natural wood finish even in a curtailed space, where a deeper wood would look disturbingly cramped.
If you have the wall space to spare, design a three-door wardrobe with additional loft space above. Apart from the advantage of the additional storage space, you would be imparting a beautifully wood-paneled charm to one entire wall of the bedroom. Dress up the central door with a long mirror, which would also reflect light and provide an illusion of added space. Ash furniture has a natural resistance to decay. Your clothes would be well preserved without being affected by dampness which sometimes occurs in wooden wardrobes.
Complete your bedroom Ash furniture collection by designing an attractive dressing table. Make it a handsome piece with a stack of three drawers at both ends and one drawer positioned low in the center. Place a full-length mirror above the central drawer with shorter mirrors hinged to either side above the drawers. You might want an upholstered dressing stool to complete the unit.
