Small double beds in new designs

Originally, the idea of a 'thinner' bed that could fit into a tighter space was created with just a few designs in mind, so if you needed to purchase one it's likely the design choices available to you would be limited.

Small double beds have become far more popular over recent years though and as a result there are far more styles available making them likely to suit to decorative style in most homes.

I have seen lots of choices available in a 4ft width, with various materials and finishing touches used to create the bed. Some of my favourite examples include:

Small double beds in an antique style

Antique Small Double Beds

These bed frames are popular in all sorts of homes, having a more traditional feel, but with the modern twist that they can be purchased in the 4ft bed small double size!

Wooden small double beds

Lots of designs available in various wood materials although oak and oak effect currently seem to be the 'on trend' designs, you can still find more cost effective choices in pine and beech as well and all available in 4ft wide options.

Metallic small double beds

Self colour and coloured metal bed frames are probably the most cost effective option available and easy self assembly can normally be achieved, making them by far the simplest product to utilise in a difficult space.

And of course, even though the beds are slightly smaller than the standard double, the usual bedding will fit over the top of it (for extra warmth I even put on a king size duvet in the winter!).
