Rustic Swing Beds

Rustic furniture and rustic interior décor is all the rage these days. It works in houses and porches of all styles, from sleek and contemporary to farmhouses and coastal cottages. Rustic swing beds are chunky in design, with wider slats and often in combination of wood and metal. They are made of cedar, cypress, kiln-dried pine or recycled wood. They can be purchased unpainted, stained, painted and distressed for an antique look. You can choose one of hundreds of colors available and several pretty stains that allow the beauty of the wood grain to shine.  Most models come in several sizes, from crib and twin to full and queen. Choose the right one for  the size of your porch or for your preference. You need a queen size if you plan on sharing it with the love of your life or just because you like to stretch. Rustic swing beds are wonderful addition to any porch and can be perfect beds for sleeping under the stars in full comfort. Just add a plush mattress and a pile of pillows. Some models have a side table for your plate or glass. Some require some assembly skills so if you are not comfortable with it, choose those rustic swing beds that come fully assembled.
