Kids Bedroom Funiture | Youth Bedroom Furniture | Children's Bedroom Furniture, Juvenile Bedroom Furniture - The Furniture Authority




Room to grow...

The Furniture Authority, a recognized leader in the US for top quality bedroom furniture and accessories, has partnered with 50 leading brands to offer a huge selection of kid's beds: children metal bunk beds, kid's solid wood bunk beds, kid's bunk beds that fuse a twin bed with a futon, and kid's bed frames. Nightstands and toy chests are offered to match many of these kid's beds. Most styles are offered in twin size and full size. Many of the bunk beds actually separate creating two distinct pieces of furniture.


Your child's room should be a haven of imagination. If should be bright, beautiful, and comfortable so that all of the castles, cars, fairies, and farm friends that are featured in books and captured in your child's heart can come to life with ease. Parents, help your child's dream come true by purchasing the ideal bed.


Today children's beds come in a variety of styles that include bunk, loft, canopy, sleigh, captains and daybeds. Beside the "cool factor" of kid's bunk beds, there are several practical benefits to choosing one for your child's bedroom. Whether it's one kid or two, bunk beds are a great space saver in any kid's room. They generally have storage (making them an economically wise choice), work well for sleepovers, and can stimulate the imagination as your child's bed becomes a pirate ship or dollhouse. Loft bunk beds are perfect for students. They feature a comfy bed up above and a desk, shelves and bookcase down below. They are great space savers too and work best for sleepovers and families with two or more children sharing a room.


Futon bunk beds feature a twin size bed on top and a full size futon on the bottom. The futon on the bottom can be converted from a full size bed to a couch, giving you great flexibility while maintaining ease of use. They also come in different styles and finishes (just change their covers to get new looks for your room). A daybed with an optional trundle drawer makes a handy extra sleeping space. Just pull the drawer out and put a mattress inside whenever you need an additional bed for sleepovers or overnight guests. Captain's kid's beds offer additional storage for clothes, toys and extra bedding with several spacious drawers. Your child's room will have a rich, elegant feel with a sleigh bed. A canopy bed, on the other hand, will lead your child into a world of fantasy to live his/her dreams. Expand these with a decorating theme - a race car, golden coach, sailor's private boat - and you have a winner on your hands.


When decorating a child's room, it can be difficult to make everything come together. Children's bedding sets can really help to set the tone for your child's bedroom. They are great for infants and for teenagers alike. They make it convenient to choose the style that you and your child like best. Children bedding sets are versatile. With reversible comforters, neutral sheet sets and a couple different accessories, a room can easily be changed as the interests of the child changes. A bedding set for your child will also be easy to clean and offers the child a chance to express his/her individuality with ease. Additionally, shopping for bedding is significantly easier, as the sets contain everything one needs and eliminates the need to match colors or styles. Today there are choices galore: character beddings, bed linen, accessories, quilt covers, curtains, wallpapers, borders, blankets, beach towels, rugs, wall clocks, alarm clocks, mirrors (Disney, Postman Pat, Cinderella, Winnie the Pooh, Bratz, Walt Disney, etc.) and more, depending on your budget and imagination.


The Furniture Authority
has partnered with 50 leading brands in furniture manufacturing to offer top quality at incredible prices in children's furniture and bedding sets.

Canopy Beds by The Furniture Authority

Canopy Beds by The Furniture Authority
When royalty, warmth is your preference!



The bed is the heart of the bedroom. It is an extension of your style. It is a place to rest, recuperate, romance, or recharge. Canopy beds could be just what you need to show the world your style. The canopy bed has four posts that are connected together at the top with rods. These can be draped with beautiful, stunning sheer fabrics to create an old-world charm of romance and grandeur. The Furniture Authority offers a unique range of top-quality canopy beds at incredible prices.


Canopy beds are stylish remnants of medieval functionality. Medieval ceilings were made of much less sturdy material than we have nowadays, including wood, clay tiles, and stone. Dirt, pebbles, insects, and various other droppings would often fall from the ceiling, so canopy beds were used in order to prevent these from falling onto a slumbering person. Royalty also used canopy beds, although they certainly did not need protection from falling debris. For royalty, the canopy beds offered warmth and privacy, as well as ceremonial importance.


Today's modern canopy beds in metal try to recreate the sense of style and romance with graceful swirls, exquisite craftsmanship, ornate curves on grills, bold shapes, carefully engineered framing systems, beautifully crafted headboards and footboards and more. Some of the canopy beds by The Furniture Authority are manufactured from genuine or plated brass, cast zinc or aluminum, and steel or iron, and are so solidly built that they can last generations.


The design options in wood canopy beds too have shown greater innovation to reflect serenity and style. Wood canopy beds with quality framing system, intricate woodwork, rich finishes and sheer drapes lend themselves well to the classic and traditional style. Canopy beds with a touch of gold and sensuous curves in inlaid wood seem to be quite the rage. Rich finishes, classic designs, striking grills and dramatic motifs recreate the grandeur for those who enjoy a dash of adventure and drama in everyday life.


Children can also enjoy the presence of a canopy bed. Little girls might enjoy a canopy bed with a white powder coat finish and pretty flowing drapes that will take them away into their own magical dream world. Canopy beds can be fitted with cartoon themes, pastel shades, or delicate lace drapes to add personal style that your child will love. A canopy bed in your child's room is sure to spark amazing imaginative possibilities that will leave you amazed and your child ecstatic.


Canopy beds come in different sizes, from Twin to Full to Queen to King to California King. Twin is also known as Single (38" x 75"), Full as Double (53" x 75"), Queen as Queen-size (60" x 80"), King as Eastern King (76" x 80") and Cal King as California King (72" x 84"). California King-size beds are typically 12" wider than a Queen-size bed and 4" longer (best for tall people).


The Furniture Authority has partnered with more than 50 leading brands in furniture manufacturing to offer you the best canopy beds in quality and price.

Platform Beds by The Furniture Authority


When flat is In Style!



Platform beds are perfect for those who want a simple and minimalist look for their bedroom. Platform beds' appeal lies in their low-profile sleeping surface, simple lines and sleek design. These are beds whose base consists of a raised, flat, hard, horizontal surface meant to support a mattress. Platform beds provide firm cushioning and with the support of slats, they eliminate the need for a box spring or mattress foundation. Add to it the fact that the space beneath the platforms can be used as storage, and it's little wonder then that their popularity has been on the rise recently.

The Furniture Authority has a huge range to help you find the perfect bed to suit your every style need and budget. Our offerings include platform beds in wood, metal or leather. In wood, you can choose from some fantastic, exclusive, classic Italian designs from the leaders in Europe for high-end, sophisticated and contemporary furnishing. There is also an innovative range in transitional furniture with products manufactured to the highest standard using top quality, 100% kiln dried tropical hardwoods and veneers for beds to ensure strength and longevity. The wood finishes are applied by hand producing a rich finish. Another unique option in wood is the eco-friendly furniture from sustainable pine. This range, in unfinished wood, is highly functional and cost-effective.

A wood platform bed gives the bedroom a simple look and a feeling of being with nature. The low physical profile of a contemporary platform bed goes well with other low-set furniture such as low coffee tables, dressers and other bedroom furnishings. Besides being sturdy and strong, metal platform beds score over wood as they require far less maintenance; no more repainting or re-staining. Metal platform bed frames are made of tubular or sheet steel. Sometimes, for effect, platform bed frames can also have headboards and footboards, as well.

Modern platform beds in sleek shapes can compliment practically any decor, whether it's contemporary, traditional or transitional. Simplicity makes a strong statement with a sophisticated leather platform bed.

The ever-popular Queen platform beds or King platform beds offer a practical solution with a modern design. These beds save you money since no box spring is required and generally the slatted platform frames have a center support to prevent sagging. Often platform beds have under bed storage drawers for an enclosed cabinet effect, to store bed linen, pillows, and various other items at your convenience.
Platform beds come in various sizes, including Twin, Full, Queen, King, and Cal King. In the USA, Twin is also known as Single (38" x 75"), Full as Double (53" x 75"), Queen as Queen-size (60" x 80"), King as Eastern King (76" x 80") and Cal King as California King (72" x 84"). Cal King size beds, generally for tall people, are typically 12" wider than a Queen-size bed and 4" longer.
Be it size, style or budget, The Furniture Authority has what is right for you. A recognized leader in providing top quality bedroom furniture and accessories at the best value money can offer, it has partnered with over 50 leading brand names in furniture manufacturing to offer you the best in quality and price.

Choosing Your Dining Room Furniture - The Furniture Authority





Britons in castles or large manor houses would eat in the Great Hall during the middle ages. The nobility began to build parlors or drawing rooms off the Great Hall, which would have been noisy and quite uncomfortable for eating. In modern American homes, the dining room is increasingly used only for formal occasions, with daily meals being taken in the kitchen or family room.

However, attitudes have come a long way in recognizing the dining room as space that can be used for many other things, and selecting dining room furniture can be an exciting venture. There are some fashionable guidelines that can be considered to make the most of the space and feel of the room, before selecting furniture for it. While looking for ways to optimize space, keep in mind the extra tasks and gatherings can take place in the room.

Dining rooms tend to be stagnant spaces where the interior decoration never changes. Consider the following ways of adding some variety to the room:

  • Center the table under a chandelier. If the builder has placed the chandelier dead center in the room, move it, so you can have more flexibility in the furniture arrangement.
  • Leave at least 18 inches for the traffic lane around the table when people are seated.
  • Arrange the chairs creatively around the table, and reshuffle small furniture, such as plant stands or lamp tables, and alternate pictures and other trimmings in and out to refresh the room.
  • Place a drop leaf table in the room to be used for extra guests for big dinner parties.


When buying a dining table, choose carefully. Consider the following issues before you shop:

  • Size – a small dining room looks best with a small table, and vice versa.
  • Capacity - consider how many people you need to fit around the table on a regular basis.
  • Shape – you need to make sure that the shape of the dining room table is in balance with the rest of the room.

Quality dining room furniture is a significant investment that can last for generations. Avoid placing your furniture in direct sunlight, as this can cause fading. Arrange furniture away from radiators, heat and air vents and air conditioning units, so it won’t be subject to extreme changes in temperature. With regular cleaning and care, your dining room furniture will provide years of enjoyment to you.

Choosing the right console table for your home!

The beckoning entrance, the extra storage in the hall, the only way to cover up that unsightly radiator; there is only one type of table that fits all of these descriptions and more, a console table. Sleek and rectangular, half moon and feminine, full of drawers or just a table, console tables have many shapes, sizes and configurations to fit your needs and tastes.
.
You can see all the different shapes, types, material, and styles of console tables as well as if they have extras. Compare prices and find the right console table for you with ease.
.
Whether you are designing with a theme in mind or just starting to re-decorate a room it has never been easier to find the perfect console table for your décor. First you need to decide where you are going to put it. Do you need a table in the foyer to welcome guests with an oversized bouquet of fresh garden flowers? Do you need a table in the hall to hold linens as well as display a favorite photo from your trip to Paris? Maybe you want to cover up an old radiator in a bedroom without taking up too much space. Or perhaps you would like one to double as a buffet in the dining room as well as hold table linens and grandma’s good silverware. Once you decide why you need or want a console table you can search for one that meets these needs as well as complements your existing décor. Choose a half moon or demilune table to cover up a radiator or add some curves to an angular room or hall. Some come with one or more drawers and some include a lower shelf. Try a rectangular one in the dining room or one full of drawers in the hall.
.
Now that you have decided what type and what shape of console table you want you can look at the finer details such as color and accents. It is easy to add a punch of refreshing color and style to a tired, dim room. Add some flair with a striped table in the living room behind your sofa. Or try some Asian allure with a black and red hand painted table in the hall. Deciding on the color and style is the fun part because you can change the whole mood of the room with one little table.
.
So give your entryway some “ah” or your hall some country charm with a new console table. Whether it is metal or wood, a tabletop sitting on long cabriole legs or a cabinet with storage for almost anything you’ll find what you are looking for online. Console tables are often a table you don’t realize you need until you have one and then you wonder how you ever survived without it. Enjoy your inviting entryway, your elegant dining room, your swanky hall or your sophisticated living room and smile. Your new console table has made your decorating dreams come true.

Bathroom vanity with sink

Bathroom sink vanities are a staple for most households. Whether you are remodeling your home, or simply building your first home, a bathroom vanity will likely play a large role in how your room is designed and what the theme centers around. There are various types of bathroom sink vanities that range from elegant and very detailed designs, to simple minimalist design that only serve one purpose. Some models are contemporary, and others are classic and vintage.
.
Choosing the right bathroom sink vanity depends solely upon your likes and dislikes, and what kind of home you have. It should match the overall theme of your bathroom or the vibe you wish to feel when walking into the bathroom. A simple and clean looking vanity will provide a pleasing look, and an elegant one will make you feel like a King or Queen in your own bathroom.
.
These vanities can be as big as an entire wall and have a couple of sinks, or they can take up less than a foot of space. Space is an important factor to consider when evaluating different types of vanities for your home, as well as your lighting needs and personal needs. If you have a lot of things you need to store in one, then its best to get one that is a big larger.
.
With modern technology and advances in interior bathroom design, choosing a vanity is as easy as browsing the internet, or walking through show rooms. Many companies have started providing vanities with ambient mood lighting, or lighting that makes the water appear colored. .
.
Simple additions like that make a room so much more. The addition of mirrors and drawers can also add to your vanity, while completely transforming your entire bathroom. Bathroom sink vanities are a necessary, yet unique way to add life and substance to your bathroom or any bathroom that you may be remodeling or building. In addition, they can also add value to your property and home.

An upholstered bench could do wonders!

How do you envision your dream home? Is it rich in color and texture, romantic, cozy, warm, comfortable and inviting all at the same time? Would you love to incorporate colorful fabrics and rich textures in your home's decor but are not sure how to pull it off? You are not alone. The truth is: Many people long to incorporate the use of textured and patterned fabric into their decorating style but are not sure where they should begin.
.

One of the easiest and least expensive steps that can be taken to create a room that is rich in textured color is to purchase a piece of upholstered furniture. An upholstered bench is usually perfect for most people who are just beginning to experiment with decorating with fabrics because it is both beautiful and versatile.
.

With an upholstered bench you can choose a piece of furniture that is truly unique and captivating without having to replace all of your room’s existing furniture or rearrange the room’s layout overmuch. If you are daring, you can choose an upholstered bench with a bright, vivid fabric which will bring that added flair to your room without having to commit to a huge change. If you are looking for a something a little more subtle, perhaps an upholstered bench covered with a fabric similar in color but different in texture to your existing furnishings may be in order.
.

The bottom line is that there are numerous options when it comes to upholstered benches. And the beauty is that they can be placed in any room of the house including the bedroom, hallway and living room, just to name a few.
.

One of the most popular places to incorporate an upholstered bench is the bedroom. Upholstered bedroom benches can be used to add a romantic or Old-World feel to your intimate space. An upholstered bench can be matched and blended with practically any existing bedroom furniture or can be selected to make a bold statement or to become the focal point of the room.
.
Bedroom benches can also be covered with rich, colorful fabrics chosen from a large tapestry of colors and designs. Want something a little more personal or customized? Simply cover your upholstered bench with your own needlepoint work or family heirloom fabrics.
.
The entry hallway is also another popular place for an upholstered bench. What could be better than welcoming visitors into an elegant entryway complete with a beautifully upholstered bench where guests can sit to catch their breath or comfortably remove their overcoats and soiled shoes?
.
Need some extra storage space? Storage upholstered benches can be the perfect solution for non-existing or small and cramped closets. They are ideal for storing off-season bed linens and clothes or personal treasures and family keepsakes.
.
Not only are upholstered benches beautiful and practical, they are also very affordable. You can purchase an upholstered bench for as little as $150. Of course, you can spend a great deal more than that if your tastes and wants lead you in that direction.
.
So if you are looking for a piece of furniture both rich in textured color and practical, maybe you should browse the large selection of upholstered bench styles. You may just find something that is perfect.
