Re: sleigh bed owners - question (stupid question)
I don't have a picture, but I'll try to describe what I did....
I put it on backwards. The curvy part that's usually at the foot is at the head, and the straight part that's usually at the head is at the foot. The nightstand hides the weird way it lays at the top of the bed, and it falls nicely (IMO) at the foot

I didn't use a bed skirt, I actually tucked the duvet cover into the frame so the carvings on the bed could be seen.

Re: sleigh bed owners - question (stupid question)
I love sleigh beds but also like platform beds. Anyone ever see sleigh beds that are platform beds???
Kathy, your bed as well as the bedroom are gorgeous!!!!

Re: sleigh bed owners - question (stupid question)
I put the dust ruffle/bed skirt on my sleigh bed without a problem. It happens that the corners of the ruffle have a pleat in it but I tucked it into the frame and it looks fine.

Re: sleigh bed owners - question (stupid question)
I put one on, but it basically just covers the boxspring. I'm thinking about changing it and just putting a boxspring cover on. It drove me crazy to see the boxspring as well!
